Verona vs Lecce Prediction: Will the Yellow and Red pick up points for the seventh game in a row?

The 19th round of the Italian championship starts with Verona and Lecce. Will the Yellow and Blue pick up a crucial victory in the fight for survival, or will the Yellow and Red pick up points for the seventh game in a row?

After a pause in the championship, the Verona team has revived a little. In the previous round, they lost only minimally 0:1 away to Inter, and earlier, they scored four points in two games - 1:1 away against Torino and 2:0 at home over Cremonese. Any tournament point for Verona is now worth its weight in gold, as the team of Salvatore Bocchetti and Marco Zaffaroni is in a challenging position. They are 18th in the standings, seven points adrift of 17th place.

The team took a break in the championship, scoring 7 points in three games. Lecce beat Atalanta (2:1) and Sampdoria (2:0) and drew with Udinese (1:1). After the break, surprisingly, nothing has changed - the Yellow and Red continue to collect points steadily. In 2023, Lecce has already managed to defeat Lazio (2:1), stole a draw (0:0) from a tough trip to La Spezia, and took points away from defending champion AC Milan (2:2). Moreover, they can even be happy with the draw, because Lecce was leading 2:0 in the course of the meeting. The Red Yellows are already 14th in the standings and sit comfortably 11 points ahead of the relegation zone.

Lecce is in good form. They have consistently won points against the top sides and have not lost in six consecutive rounds. However, after a break, Verona noticeably improved their performance - there is nowhere for the Verona side to go, and they need to try to score points in every match. Verona's excessive motivation and Lecce's excellent form make it extremely difficult to predict the winner of the upcoming game. Instead, we'll take total bets. Again, Verona needs points, and they will be cautious, and Lecce is too good in defense, having conceded only 20 goals in 18 rounds.
