Bologna have been promoted to Serie A following their narrow 1-0 win over local rivals Pisa. Chievo also return to the big time after their 2-2 with Bari as the Serie B season came to a close.

The flying donkeys won the Serie B championship and Bologna finish as runners up.

The Rossoblu took the lead against Pisa when Fava was fouled inside the box. Massimo Marazzina stepped up and ensured his side were playing in Serie A next season.  

Chievo just needed a point against Bari at the Stadio Bentegodi and they got it following their 2-2 draw with the Salentini and thus the Gialloblu return to Serie A.

The Flying Donkeys were relegated last season but they have wasted no time in returning to the top-flight. Bologna on the other hand have been in Serie B for the last three seasons and no doubt Rossoblu fans will be delighted with their well deserved return.  

Lecce’s win against Vicenza was not enough and thus they go into the play-off on Wednesday against Pisa. Brescia will play Albinoleffe in the other play-off also on Wednesday and then the return legs will be played next Sunday.
