Verona vs Sassuolo Prediction: Will Verona manage to cope with such a difficult opponent?

Verona is still in the relegation zone and needs to win. But Sassuolo has not lost five games in a row. Will Verona manage to cope with such a difficult opponent and get three points?

At the beginning of 2023, Verona actively began to climb out of the relegation zone, with only one defeat in seven games. But then the team slowed down considerably, and on the eve of the meeting with Sassuolo, they scored only two points in six rounds. Such a disappointing result again significantly reduced Verona's chances to retain their place in Serie A, and at the moment, the team is six points behind the saving 17th position.

In the previous matchday, Verona played away against Juventus and could not oppose one of the best defenses in European football. They conceded the only goal early in the second half (0:1).

Not only are the Neroverdi unbeaten in five straight rounds, but they've also won four matches in this stretch. Besides outsiders Lecce, Cremonese, and La Spezia, Sassuolo beat Roma on the road, scoring four goals against one of the strongest teams in Italy - 4:3. The team finally began to unlock their high potential. They may well end up moving above the 12th place they currently occupy.

Last round, Sassuolo failed to beat Torino on the home field, although they were close to it. Andrea Pinamonti opened the scoring in the first half, and early in the second half, Arman Lorente doubled the lead, but his goal was canceled due to offside. The Turin side scored again just a few minutes later and held on to a 1:1 draw.

Sassuolo is in great form, and during the last ten games, they lost only once, and that was to Napoli, the undisputed leaders of the Italian championship. Why shouldn't the Neroverdi also score points against Verona? The Verona side has been slow of late; they haven't won in six straight games and lost four of those six games. Our money is on Sassuolo, all the more so because the statistics of their encounters with Verona in recent years are entirely in favor of the team.
