Hellas Verona might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Torino proved too strong as Hellas Verona slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi. Hellas goalkeeper Montipò had a superb day's work versus Torino, but in spite of managing six saves the loss could not be avoided. Defender Hien was the best team player with a rating of 7.65. Hien won 8 of 10 duels.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Lecce at their stadium, the result 1-0.
