Latest football match prediction: Hellas Verona vs Como
Verona entered Serie A Round 37 almost certainly safe from relegation, but they couldn't be completely at ease as the gap between them and the relegation zone was only 5 points – specifically ahead of Lecce (18th) and Empoli (19th), with two rounds remaining.
This concern is further amplified by the alarming recent form of coach Paolo Zanetti's team: they have only managed to secure 4 points in their last 7 matches since their 1-0 victory against Udinese in mid-March.
That was also Verona's only win in their last 10 matches. If they continue to lose against a high-performing opponent like Como, their winless streak could extend to 11 games.
Fans at the Bentegodi stadium are probably not too optimistic, especially since Verona have not won in their last six Serie A encounters with Como – and given their current form, that scenario is very likely to repeat itself.
Conversely, Cesc Fabregas' Como is writing a miraculous story, becoming the first promoted team since Lazio in the 1972-73 season to win six consecutive Serie A matches in a single season.
Lazio had won eight consecutive matches between February and April, and now Como has a chance to close the gap on that record if they beat Verona this weekend.
After a 21-year absence from the top league, Como are having a fantastic season and currently sit 10th – 4 points ahead of Torino in 11th place with two rounds remaining. A win would almost guarantee them a top 10 finish.
The Lombardy team travels to Bentegodi as the favorites, especially since Verona has only won 1 of their last 12 home games. In the first leg, Como beat Verona 3-2, and now they have the opportunity to complete a double against this opponent for the first time in Serie A.
