La Spezia could not escape from a match for survival in Italy's elite division. The first part of the season was very decent, so there was no doubt that they would retain their place in Serie A. After that, the Eagles suddenly suffered a severe decline, which is continuing. In the last 20 rounds, they have only two wins, seven draws, and 11 defeats. In their previous match against Roma, they would have needed one point to be saved; they even opened the scoring, conceded at the end of the first half, and in the 91st minute, they were awarded a penalty in their own goal and lost - 1:2.

This season has turned out quite the opposite for Verona. Their league debut was a disaster. They were hopelessly bottom of the table, so their chances of salvation were next to nil. They played particularly poorly at the end of 2022 when they went on a long streak without scoring a point, but in January 2023, they decided to start a new life. The defeats became noticeably fewer, there were more and more draws, and sometimes even managed to win. In May, they became tired and relegated, and on the final matchday, they lost 1:3 to AC Milan without a chance but still managed to keep their place in Serie A, having qualified for the knockout phase.

La Spezia and Verona have picked up the same points from 38 rounds of the Italian league, but they approach the encounter in a different mood. The reason is that by the end of the season, there was no doubt that the Eagles would remain in the top division and the team would drop out, but they played the second leg in such a way that they leveled up in terms of points and their chances of staying in Serie A as they will now face a knockout phase. At the same time, the Yellows and Blues are at their best and have started to actively cling to points, while the Black and Whites are in crisis.

Of course, we shouldn't expect a goal extravaganza in such a significant encounter. Only one game will decide who will be promoted to Serie B and who will continue to entertain their fans while they play in Serie A. For this reason, there is no reason to take any unnecessary risks; the opponents will concentrate on defending their goals, and therefore the output will be pretty mediocre.
