Hellas Verona form and stats

The story so far in the Serie A for Hellas Verona at their home stadium (Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi) is 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats. Three consecutive losses here at Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

The fans are hoping that Hellas Verona will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the Serie A game against Sampdoria (placed 10th). Ahead of that match, Hellas lost 0-1 at home to Lazio.

This is expected to be a close game, with Hellas Verona perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Hellas Verona as a small favourite), we find ten games. Hellas has won six of these, drawn two and lost two.

The Hellas Verona fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 15 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 17 goals have been conceded.

Fiorentina form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Fiorentina so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 2-4-9 (win-draw-lose).

Fiorentina lost away at Sassuolo (1-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A 2-3 loss hosting Atalanta before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Fiorentina playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were two Fiorentina wins, one draw and three defeats.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Fiorentina have scored 17 goals in 15 league games away. For Fiorentina, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
