The 2019-20 campaign delivered a resilient push for promotion for Chievo Verona as the Gialloblu finished a strong 6th in Serie B, their first season back in the second tier. Spearheading the charge was Serbian centre-forward Filip Đorđević, whose 10 league goals proved vital in a campaign built on grit and an ultimately unsuccessful run to the promotion play-off semi-finals. It was a competitive year for the 'Flying Donkeys' that cemented their status as contenders and remains a defining chapter in their quest to return to the top flight.
