Verona vs Fiorentina Predictions

• Four of Verona’s last six games have seen both teams score
• Fiorentina have netted in seven successive matches
• Verona have only failed to strike in one of their last 13 home fixtures

Can Verona bounce back?

A 1-0 defeat to Lazio last weekend means Verona head into this round of fixtures just two points above the Serie A relegation zone, but it is worth noting that was the first time they had failed to net in eight games.

Four of their last six outings have seen both teams score, including a couple of home defeats to AC Milan (3-1) and Genoa (2-1).

Indeed, in their last 13 outings at Stadio MarcAntonio Bentegodi, they have struck in a dozen of them, but they have equally managed just one clean sheet in six at all venues.

Fiorentina on a high

Their opponents certainly know where the back of the net is, having beaten Club Brugge 3-2 in the first leg of their UEFA Europa League semi-final on Thursday.

That was the third successive Viola game in which both teams have scored, while they have also struck in six successive matches.

There is no danger of Vincenzo Italiano’s side taking the eye off the ball given their European exploits either, as they remain desperate for points in the bid to break into the top seven.

I predict that both teams will score in this fixture, with a 1-1 draw my correct score prediction.
