This season Italian Lega A might be uninteresting, as there will be two super-strong teams that will fight for the title, and the rest of the league will fight for other places. One of those two favorite teams is Virtus Bologna. Last season they had an excellent roster, and this season they are even stronger. Today they will host Varese in the second round of the Lega A championship.

Virtus Bologna

Virtus Bologna already tested how to play in front of their loyal fans in PalaDozza, but those were friendly games, and playing championship games is something different. No doubt fans will flock to see Marco Bellineli and his crew in black jerseys for the first time. Coach Sergio Scariolo has several injured players, mainly in the frontcourt, but his roster is big enough.

Varese

On the other hand, Varese isn’t one of the main favorites this season, but they have a respectful roster with a lot of exciting and experienced players. In the first round, they managed to win against Brescia 75-72 and showed that they could play against teams who prefer defensive play.

Team News

Virtus Bologna will play without two important players, as Ekpe Udoh and Awudu Abass are long-term injuries. Varese doesn’t have any serious injury problems, but Gentile is not 100% fit.

H2H Comparison and Trends

These two teams played many times in the past, but last season they played twice, and Virtus won both games.
