Hellas Verona vs Parma Preview and Prediction: The defense will shine.

Latest team news for Hellas Verona vs Parma

Verona coach Paolo Zanetti will be without four injured players – Martin Frese, Davide Faraoni, Oumar Niasse, and Abdou Harroui – for Monday night's match. However, Fiorentina loan defender Nicolas Valentini will return after serving a one-match suspension.

Valentini is likely to start in the home team's three-man central defense, in coach Zanetti's preferred 3-4-2-1 formation.

Verona's top scorer, Casper Tengstedt, is racing against time to recover. If he is not fit enough to start, he may be benched, giving Daniel Mosquera and Dailon Livramento a chance to compete for a place alongside Amin Sarr in attack.

On the other side of the pitch, Parma will welcome back Simon Sohm and Alessandro Vogliacco after their suspensions. However, Brazilian midfielder Hernani will be absent due to serving a one-match ban.

Parma's injury list remains quite long, including Adrian Benedyczak, Alessandro Circati, Gabriel Charpentier, Yordan Osorio, and Valentin Mihaila. However, Matteo Cancellieri has recovered from the injury that kept him out of the match against Monza.

Veteran striker Milan Djuric – formerly of Verona – is currently struggling with a knee, so Mateo Pellegrino and Ange-Yoan Bonny will compete for the starting center-forward spot in the visitors' three-man attacking system.

Latest football match prediction: Hellas Verona vs Parma

Verona received a major boost in their fight for survival just before the international break, when the Veneto-based team unexpectedly defeated Udinese – a team in good form – thanks to a magical moment from Ondrej Duda.

Not only did Duda score the club's first free-kick goal in Serie A after four seasons, but he was also a key factor in Verona's fight against relegation. He leads the team in the number of chances created from set pieces (11), the number of successful passes in the opponent's penalty area (102), and in the final third of the pitch (215).

Previously, Verona had lost 4 of their 5 matches, conceding an average of 2 goals per game. Despite having the worst defense in the league, their crucial wins have helped them maintain distance from the relegation zone.

Now, they aim for their second consecutive win for the first time in over a year, as they host a direct relegation rival at the Bentegodi Stadium.

Verona currently leads Parma by 4 points with 9 rounds remaining. If they secure their sixth consecutive home win against this opponent, Paolo Zanetti's team will not only surpass the 30-point mark but also deal a significant blow to Parma's hopes of avoiding relegation.

While Duda was Verona's hero against Udine, Parma placed their faith in French striker Ange-Yoan Bonny in their final match before the international break.

Trailing away to bottom-of-the-table Monza, Parma looked set to lose in this crucial clash between two teams languishing at the bottom of the table. However, Bonny rescued the team with a stunning 84th-minute goal, securing a valuable point and temporarily opening up a three-point gap between Parma and the relegation zone.

New coach Cristian Chivu has only lost once in his first four games in charge, earning five points – the same number of points Parma earned in their last 11 games under Fabio Pecchia.

As the reigning Serie B champions, Parma now have control over their own destiny in the relegation battle, and history is on their side. In the 21st century, whenever Parma have accumulated at least 25 points after 28 rounds in Serie A, they have only been relegated once – in 2008.
