Prediction: 2-2
Udinese
Verona will look to kickstart 2025 in style when they take on Udinese in the Serie A round 19. The Mastini aim to build on a 3-2 win over Bologna and they must be brimming with confidence ahead of Saturday’s encounter. Home win, though, should not be considered as both Tomas Suslov and Jackson Tchatchoua are banned for the match. Serbia wing-back Darko Lazovic should recover in time to face the Zebrette.
Udinese, on the other hand, head into the match following a 2-2 draw with Torino. The Zebrette have been showing signs of improvement of late, especially up front and given Verona’s attacking potential at home, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Both Okoye and Davis are sidelined with injuries, while the likes of Zarraga, Giannetti, and Payero are major doubts and the trio will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
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.
