The 2017-18 campaign was a tense season for Chievo Verona as the Gialloblu battled to secure their Serie A status, ultimately finishing 13th. The team, despite a mid-season slump that saw manager Rolando Maran replaced, rallied under new coach Lorenzo D'Anna to clinch safety with three crucial consecutive wins on the final matchdays. Leading the attack was Italian striker Roberto Inglese, whose 12 league goals proved vital. The season also included a dramatic league victory in the Derby della Scala over rivals Hellas Verona, a memorable highlight of their successful fight against the drop.
