FC Spezia vs Hellas Verona: We expect an impressive show

Spezia plays host to Verona in round 20 of Serie A. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Spezia is an average underdog in the Italian league. They are struggling for survival, and ahead of this round, they are just one step away from the relegation zone, sitting in 17th place with 16 points. Spezia spectacularly finished 2021, breaking their unbeaten streak of seven matches. They beat Napoli in Naples without a single shot on goal (1:0)!

It would seem that Verona's ambition and resources allow them to fight for European competitions, but in reality, they are always missing something. Currently, the club is in 12th place in the standings with 24 points, eight points behind sixth-placed Roma. But there is still a chance of moving up, and they need to improve. They have lost three games in a row at the end of 2021, and last time around, they drew with a score of 1:1 with Fiorentina.

In this meeting, we can't point to a favourite. The fact is that the more highly-ranked Verona have not been performing well recently, and they will be playing on the road. Spezia has scored an average of 3.1 goals per game, while Verona has scored 3.5 goals on average! We think that it will be logical to bet on the total over. Prediction: Total Over (2.5).

• Total Over (2.5) for 1.80
• Total Over (3.5) for 2.94
• Each Half Total Over (1.5) for 5.50
