Prediction: 1-1
Como
Verona play host to Como at “Bentegodi” on the penultimate day of the season. The Mastini came from behind to share the spoils with Lecce at the weekend and that point should prove to be enough for the team to avoid relegation. Even though there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team, German midfielder Suat Serdar is expected to return to the starting XI.
Como, on the other hand, look unstoppable at the moment, with the team eyeing their seventh consecutive win in the Serie A. Cesc Fabregas’ men obviously want to finish the season in style, but with Verona being tough to beat in “The City of Love”, we are tempted to place our bets on draw. All Assane Diao, Sergi Roberto, and Alberto Dossena are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team, while forward Patrick Cutrone is pushing for a start.
Highlighted Team (Verona):
Founded back in 1903, Hellas Verona are a professional football club that compete in the Italian Serie A. The “Mastini” are well known for their yellow and blue jerseys and they welcome their opponents at Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi. Hellas Verona share rivalry with Chievo Verona and the two local rivals face each other in the “Derby della Scala”.

In 1985 the Mastini won their first and only Scudetto, with the team finishing the season in top position in the Serie A standings, four points clear of second-placed Torino. The likes of Preben Elkjaer, Giuseppe Calderisi, Hans-Peter Briegel, Pietro Fanna and Antonio Di Gennaro led Hellas Verona to the historical success.
