Chievo, meanwhile, go with youth, benching the likes of Sergio Pellissier, Perparim Hetemaj and Emmanuel Giaccherini for Sofian Kiyine, Mehdi Leris and 18-year-old attacker Vignato, who is an Italy Under-19 international.
Bologna can climb out of the Serie A drop zone with victory over Domenico Di Carlo’s basement boys, who have not won since December.
