On Monday, February 13, 18th-placed Verona will play 16th-placed Salernitana at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi in a matchup between two teams from the lower half of Serie A.
After the 1-1 home draw with Lazio on Monday, the hosts are unbeaten in three league games. They are four points ahead of Sampdoria, who are 19th, but Spezia (19) is five points behind them as they try to get out of the relegation zone.
Salernitana, on the other hand, lost to Juventus 3-0 at home in midweek, their third defeat in four league games.
Verona vs Salernitana Team News :
Davide Faraoni and Pawel Dawidowicz, both of Verona, may be available to Marco Zaffaroni on Monday following their absence from the draw with Lazio last week.
Miguel Veloso (calf) and Milan Djuric (muscular) are less likely to play for the hosts, and Thomas Henry’s season ended last month when an ACL tear occurred.
Adolfo Gaich, a new signing in January, is ready to take Djuric’s place at the front, but Cyril Ngonge, who scored last time out, will be hoping to keep his spot. Darko Lazovic has scored three goals and provided two assists in just six appearances since the beginning of 2023, more than any other Serie A midfielder.
In the meantime, Salernitana is still without Pasquale Mazzocchi (knee) and Federico Fazio (calf) because of injuries. Norbert Gyomber, a fellow defender, is also struggling with a muscular problem that could keep him out.
After Atalanta’s 8-2 defeat, Davide Nicola switched to a four-man defense and should stick with it at the Bentegodi, even though his team lost to Juventus last week.
Krzysztof Piatek has scored in the front line in each of his three league games against Verona, each with a different team: Last October, Salernitana followed by Milan. Federico Bonazzoli, on the other hand, has a lot of competition for the Polish striker’s spot as the visitors’ center forward.
Verona made some progress after spending the majority of the season deep in the relegation zone, but they are currently seven points behind the first team outside the relegation zone. Still, in their last six Serie A games, Verona has won two, drawn three, and lost one. If they can keep up their good form, maybe they will be able to survive.
Meanwhile, Davide Faraoni and Pawel Dawidowicz remain questionable, while Miguel Veloso, Milan Djuric, and Thomas Henry are currently out with injuries.
