Overview
After a surprising 3-2 win over Bologna at the end of 2024, Verona has yet to find joy in 2025. In the last 3 matches, they have only got 1 point in a draw with Udinese and have not been able to separate themselves from the relegation group. Overall, Verona's goal of staying in the league in the 2024-2025 season is still extremely difficult.
As for Venezia, they are not in better form as they are right behind Verona with only 15 points on the rankings. Since December last year, they have only lost 3 matches but drawn 4 times and won 1. This is also the reason why Venezia is considered to be at risk of relegation after this season ends.
Verona currently have the worst defense in the league, conceding 47 goals in 21 games. However, Venezia are unlikely to be able to take advantage of this weakness, as their attack has only scored 19 goals this season. In their most recent match, Verona lost 0-3 to Lazio at home. This was their second consecutive defeat after being defeated by Napoli.
This is a crucial match for both teams, but it is likely that both Verona and Venezia will only be able to settle for 1 point.
In terms of head-to-head record, Verona is superior to Venezia. In the last 8 meetings, Verona has not lost to Venezia and won 4.
Verona are also unbeaten in their last three away games against Venezia. In the first leg of their Serie A clash this season, Verona won 2-1 thanks to an 81st-minute Joronen own goal.
