Verona Insights.

Hellas Verona’s Serie A (SA) matches (W3, D3, L1) have averaged a league-low 2.14 total goals per match (including the declared 3-0 result), but the last two (W1, D1) witnessed 4.00 total goals per game. Those two games saw Verona score before HT for the first time this season. Nonetheless, Verona have conceded the opening SA goal just once and reaped rewards after scoring first, avoiding defeat in the applicable matches (W2, D2). Brace for a slow start, regardless of their efficiency after scoring first, as Verona’s last three SA home matches have aggregated just one goal before HT either way.

Sassuolo Insights.

Sassuolo are the surprise package of the season (W4, D3), having picked up nine points more than at the same point last season. The surge in their fortunes can be largely attributed to late action as a third of Sassuolo’s 18 SA goals have come beyond the 80th minute. That has played a large role in Sassuolo retrieving five points even after conceding first, with a record of: W1, D2, in applicable matches. The ‘Neroverdi’ have also won each of their three SA away matches, scoring 2+ goals each time. Furthermore, they travel to a stadium at which they have won each of their last three SA matches with a clean sheet, and have kept the most away top-flight clean sheets (five).
