Italian Serie A picks for Bologna vs. Verona

Before you tune in to Friday's match, you need to see the Verona vs. Bologna picks from SportsLine soccer insider Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for nearly five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most-informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe. 

Sutton has also been on a roll with his best bets, going 17-8 and returning over $800 for $100 bettors who have followed his soccer picks.

For Verona vs. Bologna, Sutton is predicting the match to end in a draw at +230 odds. Verona has drawn two of its last four Serie A games on home soil, and Igor Tudor's side has failed to score more than one goal in its last four league fixtures at home. While Bologna has lost five of its last six Serie A matches, Siniša Mihajlović's side held Verona to zero shots on target in its 1-0 win earlier this season.

"These two sides have a history of settling for a draw," Sutton told SportsLine. "In fact, Verona and Bologna have shared the points in three of their last five meetings in Serie A. They have tied in their last two head-to-head meetings at Verona's home stadium, where Friday's match is being played."
