Juventus vs Hellas Verona Betting Tips

It doesn’t seem that long ago that we were talking about a Juventus that couldn’t be successful without Andrea Pirlo and Carlos Tevez. They were 15th in the table at one stage and didn’t seem capable of buying a win. They’re now going for an eighth straight win and are just three points behind Inter Milan, they’re just about unstoppable and bet365 currently makes them favourites to win the league outright.

There could hardly be a more opposite situation in Wednesday afternoon’s visitors Hellas Verona. A team that was a real success story in 2014/15 thanks to an effective long ball and defensive method is win-less through 17 games with just eight draws.

Three Reasons for Betting Tips

1. Trending in opposite directions

These two teams could hardly be trending in more opposite directions. Juventus have won seven straight and eight of their last nine, they’re dominating just about every aspect of every game right now and they’re playing in a way that suggests they’re making up for the disappointments of earlier in the season. Meanwhile, Verona have two draws in their last three games, but just don’t seem capable of getting any sort of win.

2. Verona never as good away from home

Verona have always been a club that survives in large part to strong home form, so expecting them to pull off a big upset away from home isn’t sensible betting. Verona’s biggest problem is a complete lack of goals, they’ve managed just 12 tallies in 17 games.

3. Finding good odds

Obviously the odds on a Juventus win or even the Over 2.5 Goals market are not going to offer much of a return, but a -2.0 Asian Handicap bet is worth a look in this game, four of Juventus’ last five Serie A wins have come by two goals or more.
