Juventus vs. Verona: Match Prediction
At home, the Turin side often plays from a position of strength and spends a lot of time on the opponent's half. This style of play results in a high number of goals: Juventus' scoring streak in home league games is now ten matches. Moreover, in seven of these matches, Thiago Motta's side has scored at least twice. However, in their last eight home Serie A encounters, the team has kept a clean sheet only three times and conceded a total of nine goals.
Verona is not known for reliable defense, especially in away games: in their last 12 away league encounters, the club has kept just one clean sheet, and in seven instances, they conceded at least twice. However, Verona performs well in attack: the team has scored in 10 of their last 14 away Serie A matches.
I believe both opponents are capable of playing an open, attacking game and finding the net. My prediction: Both teams to score – yes
