After a famous 1-0 win over the Old Lady in the Derby d'Italia, the Well-Cherished One takes on the Yellow and Blues for a chance to move into second place at the end of the weekend. The Serie A fixture, Inter Milan vs. Hellas Verona, kicks off at 17:00 (GMT+1) on Saturday, April 9 at the San Siro.

Hellas Verona bagged a narrow 1-0 victory over Genoa on Monday after a single goal from Giovanni Simeone (6') inside the first ten minutes. The victory saw Verona move one spot ahead, from 10th to 9th place on the Serie A table, having picked up 45 points from 12W, 9D, and 10L. With a win here, Verona will maintain their lead over ninth-placed Sassuolo [43 points], who face Atalanta on Sunday. After the 1-0 win against Genoa, Verona are looking to keep two clean sheets in a row for the first time in Serie A since September 2020. Looking for two victories in a row, WDLDW, Igor Tudor, and Gli Scaligeri could appear with the 3—4—2—1 formation against Inter, having Giovanni Simeone in attack. The 26-year-old Simeone has 16 goals and 4 assists in 29 appearances for Verona in the league, leaving his contributions for the club in the final-third at 36%.

Hellas Verona vs. S.S.C. Napoli kicks off at 15:00 (GMT+1) on Sunday, March 13, at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi.

Last weekend, Hellas Verona salvaged a point in the game against the Purples at the Stadio Artemio Franchi. Fiorentina’s Piatek (10') had all the time in the world to assess his options, having put the ball under his spell before firing a volley into the back of the net. However, Verona found their way back into the game after Caprari (20' P.) squeezed the ball past the Lilies’ goalkeeper from the penalty spot. Verona sat back and weathered the storm to berth safely with a point at the end of the ninety, having lacked the quality or will to launch any wave of attack on Fiorentina. The draw left the Yellow and Blues with 8 points from a possible 15, after five Serie A fixtures, LWDWD. Verona remains in 9th place, having picked up 41 points from 11W, 8D, and 9L. In this calendar year, Hellas Verona have gained the fourth-most points in Serie A [17 in nine matches], behind only Juventus (19), Napoli (18), and AC Milan (18). Igor Tudor is looking to keep the numbers up with a weekend upset for Napoli written across his mind. The 43-year-old lined up the 3—4—1—2 against the Purples, leaving Giovanni Simeone and Kevin Lasagna in attack and could be doing so once again on Sunday. Meanwhile, Miguel Veloso’s availability for the weekend's game remains shrouded in mystery.

After a draw against the Watermelon Peel, the Magic One returns against the Mastiffs on Serie A Matchday 26, hoping to return to winning ways after two games without a victory. AS Roma vs. Hellas Verona F.C. kicks off at 18:00 (GMT+1) on Saturday, February 19, at the Stadio Olimpico.

The Mastiffs cruised past Udinese in a 4-0 win over the Little Zebras at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi last weekend. The victory saw Verona bounce back to winning ways following the 2-0 defeat to the Old Lady on Matchday 24, LWWLW. Four points behind, and two spots below Roma, the Mastiffs sit in 9th place with 36 points from 10W, 6D, & 9L. After a victory over Roma in the reverse fixture, Hellas Verona could complete a Serie A double over the Little Cubs for the first time since the 1968/69 edition of Italian top-flight football. Verona has 47 goals after 25 Serie A games, an average goal ratio of 1.88 goals per game, and are the fourth-highest scoring side in Serie A. Gli Scaligeri could line up with the 3—4—2—1 formation, leaving Simeone in attack. Igor Tudor would be counting on the likes of Gianluca Caprari, who has scored in each of his last three league games, to hit the back of the net once again on Saturday against the Magic One.

Juventus F.C. vs. Hellas Verona F.C. kicks off at 20:45 (GMT+1) on Sunday, February 6, at the Allianz Stadium.

Hellas Verona bagged three points before the break following a comeback 2-1 win over Bologna at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi. Gianluca Caprari (39') and Nikola Kalinic (85') made the 2-1 win possible, while Orsolini (14') scored Bologna’s only goal. Verona are now with back-to-back victories, DWLWW, ahead of Sunday’s fixture against Juventus. The victory saw Verona jump one spot ahead, from 10th to 9th place on the Serie A table, having picked up 33 points from 9W, 6D, & 8L. Igor Tudor and Gli Scaligeri could line up with the 3—4—2—1 formation, leaving Nikola Kalinic in attack for this fixture against the Girlfriend of Italy. Giovanni Simeone is suspended and ruled out of this weekend’s clash. Simeone has scored 28% of Hellas Verona’s goals in Serie A this season (12/43) and in five league starts without the Argentinian striker, Verona has never won (0W, 2D, & 3L). Meanwhile, Pawel Dawidowicz (ACL injury) is sidelined for the rest of the season.

The Italian Serie A fixture, S.S.C. Napoli vs. Hellas Verona, kicks off at 18:00 (GMT+1) on Sunday, November 7, at the Stadio San Paolo.

Verona are well-rested, having not played in any form of continental football after the 2-1 win over Juventus on Matchday 11. The famous win saw Gli Scaligeri jump two spots up the Serie A table, from 10th to 8th place, having picked up 15 points from 4W, 3D, & 4L. With three victories in five games, WLWDW, Igor Tudor aims for another win to add to the tally. Since he joined Verona, only Bayern Munchen (25) have bagged more goals than the Yellow & Blues (21) in the big five European leagues. On Sunday, a 4—2—3—1 formation with Giovanni Simeone at the top of the shape is anticipated. Having bagged a brace in the 2-1 win over Juventus, Giovanni Simeone (10’ & 14’) will be in the hunt for more to add to his tally of 8 this season. Before him, the last player to have scored 8+ goals in his first nine Serie A matches in a single season was Atalanta’s Luis Muriel in 2019.

The Italian Serie A fixture, Hellas Verona vs. Juventus FC, kicks off at 17:00 (GMT+1) on Saturday, October 30, at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi.

Verona salvaged a point in the 1-1 draw against Udinese at Dacia Arena on Wednesday. Minutes after kick-off, Isaac Success (3’) received the ball midway through the opposition’s half, before racing away towards Verona’s goal for the opener. Several clear-cut chances went by at both ends before Verona found the leveler with seven minutes left on the clock through a penalty by Antonin Barak (83’ P.). The draw saw Verona jump one spot higher on the table from 11th to 10th place, having picked up 12 points after 3W, 3D, & 4L. With the domestic form: DWLWD, Igor Tudor will aim to avoid defeat in the hands of the Old Lady over the weekend. Hellas Verona has a goal ratio of 2.2 goals per game and an impressive haul of 22 goals after ten Serie A games. At their end, they have conceded 19 goals (1.9 goals conceded per game) and are left with a G.D. of +3. A 3—4—2—1 formation, with Nikola Kalinic in attack, is expected on Saturday against Juventus.

The Serie A TIM fixture, Hellas Verona vs. S.S Lazio, kicks off at 14:00 (GMT+1) on Sunday, October 24, at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi.

Hellas Verona picked up a disappointing 3-2 defeat to AC Milan at the San Siro last weekend. Verona had a two-goal lead at the break following the opener from Gianluca Caprari (7’), and another effort from twelve yards by Antonin Barak (24’ P). However, a totally different AC Milan emerged from the tunnel after the break. Olivier Giroud (59’) cut Verona’s lead down to one before Franck Kessie (76' P.) restored parity from the penalty spot. Rotten luck, in the shape of an own goal by Koray Gunter (78’ O.G.) gave the home side the lead until the final whistle. It was the first defeat for Verona in five games: WDDWL, leaving the club in 14th place, having picked up 8 points after 2W, 2D, & 4L. Verona has a healthy goal ratio of 2.12 goals per game, so far this season, having bagged a total haul of 17 goals in just eight Serie A appearances. By those numbers, Verona should be doing much better on the table, but a disappointing average of 2.12 goals every ninety minutes leaves the club with 17 goals conceded. The club has hit the back of the net twice in five consecutive Serie A games for the first time since May 2014. Repeating the same feat on Sunday could see Verona score two or more goals in five or more games in Serie A for the first time since November 2013. A 3—4—2—1 formation may be seen from Igor Tudor, having Nikola Kalinic in attack against Lazio on Sunday.

The Serie A TIM fixture, AC Milan vs. Hellas Verona F.C. kicks off at 19:45 (GMT+1) on Saturday, October 16, at San Siro.

Hellas Verona is in 12th place following the 4-0 thrashing of Spezia before the international break. The club has 8 points after 2W, 2D, & 3L and returns with the form: LWDDW. Being the side with the most goals from outside the box (3) in Serie A this season, Igor Tudor will hope the numbers count on Saturday when an unfamiliar face in the shape of Mirante or Ciprian Tătărușanu appears in goal for Milan. However, Verona has failed to win any of its last seven Serie A matches on the road (D3 & L4). On Saturday, Gli Scaligeri could line up in a 3—4—2—1 formation against Milan, with Giovanni Simeone in attack.

The Italian Serie A TIM fixture, Hellas Verona vs. AS Roma, kicks off at 17:00 (GMT+1) on Sunday, September 19 at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi.

Hellas Verona remains rooted to the bottom of the Serie A table, in 19th place, having no points after three games, all of which ended in defeats: 0W, 0D & 3L. They lost to Bologna by a single goal on Matchday 3 at the Renato Dall'Ara. The bottom side have 3 goals but conceded 7 over three games and are left with a G.D. of -4. Having lost their first two home league matches, they look ripe for a third home defeat for the first time in the history of the club in Italian top-flight football. An attacking 3—4—2—1 formation could be seen from Igor Tudor on Matchday 4, with Simeone at the top of the design.

Italian Serie A fixture, Hellas Verona F.C. vs. Inter Milan kicks off at 19:45 (GMT+1) on Friday, August 27 at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi.

Ten-men Hellas Verona failed to pick up a point last Saturday after the home defeat to Sassuolo on Match Day 1. Having coached Sassuolo last season, Eusebio Di Francesco began Serie A life at Verona with a start against his former employers. Sassuolo took the lead through Giacomo Raspadori (32'), two minutes after the half-hour mark. Minutes later, Miguel Veloso (R. 45') was shown the red. Filip Djuricic (51') doubled the lead for Sassuolo before Verona's Mattia Zaccagni (71' P.) cut the deficit down to one from the penalty spot. Hamed Traore (77') extended Sassuolo's lead once again, but a last-gasp effort from Zaccagni (90') reduced the deficit once again. 3-2! It finished. A victory over Inter looks unlikely but Di Francesco would be on the hunt for a point against the defending champions. He could start with three at the back in a 3—4—2—1 formation to give his team more attacking options on the pitch. Nikola Kalinic is expected to lead the lines. On availability, Davide Faraoni remains doubtful while the captain, Miguel Veloso is suspended.
