Verona vs. Juventus: Match Prediction
Even at home, Verona rarely delivers an exciting and high-scoring attacking performance. Over their last 14 home Serie A matches, they have never scored more than one goal and failed to score in nine of those games. On the other hand, Verona can be defensively solid, having conceded no more than one goal in 6 of their last 8 home league matches and kept a clean sheet four times.
Juventus impressed with their attacking play in the last round, but they are less effective away from home. In 10 of their last 12 away Serie A matches, the team has scored a maximum of one goal, and in clashes with Parma and Fiorentina, they didn't score at all. However, Juventus is strong defensively, conceding no more than one goal in 13 of their last 16 away league matches and keeping a clean sheet four times.
I expect a low-scoring match. My prediction: Total under 2.5 goals
