Verona vs Inter: Match Preview
Last season, Verona finished 14th in Serie A, collecting 37 points from 38 rounds — seven more than the team that occupied the 18th spot. They managed to stay up, but once again find themselves fighting for survival. After nine matches in the current campaign, Verona are still without a win, drawing five times and losing four. The Mastiffs sit 18th in the table with five points, owning both the second-worst attack and defense in the league with a goal difference of 5:22. The bottom of the table remains tightly packed, so the battle for safety is far from over.
Inter came close to winning the title last season, ultimately falling just one point short of Napoli. This year, they are once again in the title race — or at least aiming to stay in it. Last weekend, the Nerazzurri suffered a 1–3 defeat to Napoli, but quickly bounced back midweek with a commanding 3–0 win over Fiorentina, having also beaten Roma 1–0 not long before. Inter now have 18 points from nine rounds, sitting three points off the top spot.
Probable lineups
- Verona: Montipò, Frese, Belghali, Valentini, Nelsson, Bella-Kotchap, Gagliardini, Bernede, Serdar, Giovane, Orban
- Inter: Sommer, Dimarco, Akanji, Dumfries, Bastoni, Bisseck, Çalhanoğlu, Barella, Sučić, Martínez, Esposito
Prediction
Verona are in a dreadful position right now, and this presents a perfect opportunity for Inter to claim all three points. The visitors should have no trouble doing so, making a bet on Inter’s individual total over 1.5 goals a strong choice.
