Verona Form Guide – Fighting for Survival
Verona has gone six league games without a win, most recently grinding out a 0-0 draw against Cremonese. They have only won two matches all season, leaving them at the bottom of the table.
Despite this, they sit just three points from safety, meaning this fixture could define their season.
Key Problems:
- Five losses in the last six home matches
- No goals after the 75th minute at home this season
- Eight goals conceded late in matches.
- Failed to score in 10 league games
The Bentegodi crowd will demand urgency, but Verona’s inability to close games remains a serious concern.
Udinese Form Guide – Stuck in Neutral
Udinese continue to drift in mid-table with only one win in six matches. They have shown flashes of quality but lack consistency.
Their recent away win against Torino (2-1) was a boost, but it followed three straight road defeats.
Strengths:
- Unbeaten vs the bottom three teams this season
- Scored in 12 of 21 league games
- Strong second-half goal threat
However, Udinese have conceded first in 14 matches, showing vulnerability early.
Head-to-Head Record
