Verona vs Venezia prediction, H2H and probable lineups — September 24, 2025
On September 24, 2025, the Coppa Italia round of 32 brings us a clash between Verona and Venezia. Kick-off is set for 18:30 Central European Time. Let's take a closer look at the teams' attacking prospects and consider a bet on goals in this encounter.
Verona
Verona approach the fixture against Venezia mired in a winless streak. So far this season, the team has yet to taste victory in official matches, settling for four draws and suffering a heavy away defeat to Lazio. In recent Serie A rounds, Verona played twice at home but failed to secure a win: first a goalless draw against Cremonese, then a 1-1 draw with Juventus. Currently, the team sits only 15th in the league standings, with a modest goal difference of 2 scored and 6 conceded.
In the Coppa Italia round of 64, Verona faced Serie C side Audace Cerignola and progressed only after a penalty shootout. Nevertheless, their home form has been relatively stable—four consecutive home games without defeat, though all ended in draws. Against Venezia on home soil, Verona hold a clear upper hand: in their last four meetings here, they've claimed victory three times and drawn once.
Venezia
Venezia are back in Serie B after finishing 19th in the top flight last season. However, their start at the new level can hardly be called impressive: after four rounds, Venezia managed just one win—on opening day against Bari. Two draws followed, then a home defeat to Cesena (1-2) in their latest outing. Venezia currently sit 11th in the standings with 5 points to their name.
Their Coppa Italia campaign began brightly with a 4-0 win over Mantova. However, head-to-head meetings with Verona have been a major struggle in recent years: Venezia are winless in nine consecutive encounters, managing only five draws and suffering four defeats. Notably, the last five clashes between these sides have been high-scoring affairs, with both teams finding the net each time.
