Prediction published on 28/12/2023, 12:00  by Daniel Ngulu in Serie A Predictions

Two struggling sides, Verona and Salernitana will face off in their next Italian Serie A encounter on Saturday. Hosts Verona go into this game placed 16th while Salernitana are bottom of the pile. With 14 points garnered, Verona are just a point above the drop zone. A 2-0 win over Cagliari in their last game lifted Verona off the relegation zone and they’ll want to keep rising. That was also the third time in five matches that they scored more than a goal. Verona haven't lost much in recent matches, drawing three of their last five matches. However the win in their last outing is the only victory in 16 matches. They have 10 losses in their last 16 matches. Meanwhile, they come into this game unbeaten in their last three home matches. Verona have however managed just one win in their three undefeated outings at home.

Salernitana are coming from a hard fought 2-2 draw with AC Milan in their last game. That result moved them to nine points, five below the safety line and they will hope to close the gap here. The draw with Milan marked a break from a three-match losing run. Here they will hope to go one better, and bag three points to boost their survival chances. Having managed just one clean sheet, Salernitana will feel the need to do better here. Their scoring run is good though, with the visitors having only failed to score in three of their last 10 matches. Salernitana have managed just one win in their 17 league matches this season. Coming into this game they haven't managed an away win in eight, losing six.
