Spezia and Verona will be desperate for points on Sunday, as both are very eager to escape their current disappointing position. The question is, whether either team has the guts to go all-out pursuing an important win, or a cautious draw is on the cards instead?

Spezia are number 17 in the table on 20 points after 24 matches. Verona rank as number 18 with 17 points after 24 matches played.

Verona took a massive beating in their last encounter, and look to make amends on Sunday. Spezia should face a seriously motivated home side.

Spezia scored nine times in the last ten outings for an average of 0.9 goals a game. They conceded 16 and managed two clean sheets.

Verona travel to their next Serie A match, averaging a lowly 0.9 goals per game in their last ten matches. They scored a disappointing total of nine goals, while also conceding ten goals. That amounts to an average of one per game, in which they kept their opponents from scoring three times.

Verona lost 2-1 against Spezia in their latest encounter. This served as pay back for the 2-1 defeat, Verona handed out in the match before.

Spezia vs Verona Prediction

Spezia Form

Spezia have been too mediocre in their last three matches, where a win has failed to come their way. Against Empoli, they gained a point in a 2-2 draw, before coming up short against Juventus, who ran out 0-2 winners. Lately, they managed to steal a point in a 2-2 draw with Udinese. Spezia are without a win in their last six Serie A matches on home soil, which produced a record of three draws and three defeats, in which they conceded ten and scored three goals.

Verona Form

In their last three matches, Verona won 1-0 win against Salernitana, lost 1-0 against Roma and lost 0-3 against Fiorentina. In their last six Serie A away matches, Verona failed to win even once. In stead, they've drawn two and lost four, scoring three while also conceding eight times.

Spezia find it tough these days to get a goal in, but Verona are equally lacklustre in front of goal currently, and going with under 2.5 goals in the betting market is the obvious choice.

Spezia won eight points from their last five encounters with teams from the bottom six, like their upcoming opponent. They won two, scored six and let in five goals. Verona earned 12 points from their last six games against teams placed in the bottom six of the Serie A table. They scored nine goals in those matches, but also allowed five goals against on their way to four wins. Spezia enjoy a record of four wins, eight draws and 12 defeats in the Serie A this season. Verona are looking at four wins, five draws and 15 defeats in the Serie A.
