Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Following three consecutive defeats, Verona will look to return to winning ways in the Serie A when they take on Lecce in Sunday’s relegation six-pointer. The Mastini are six points clear of the relegation zone, meaning that they should be happy with one point from the match. Ondrej Duda is back from suspension, while both Daniele Ghilardi and Diego Coppola are banned for Sunday’s showdown.
The Giallorossi, on the other hand, failed to upset league leaders Napoli in their last league fixture, with the team remaining in the danger zone. Lecce are desperate to pick up all three points from the Verona clash, but with the Mastini being tough to beat at home, there is a big value in betting on draw. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team ahead of the trip to “the City of Love”.
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”.
The first derby of Verona was played on November 18, 2001, with Hellas Verona emerging triumphant (3-2). 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.
However, the most famous footballer who played for Verona is Romania international Adrian Mutu, who scored 16 goals in 57 appearances in the league for the Stadio Marc’ Antonio Bentegodi outfit. Verona will compete in the Italian top flight in the 2017/2018 season as they finished the 2016/2017 Serie B campaign in second position in the table.
