✅  Stats before the game:

Following their victory over Fiorentina in their recent home match (2-1 on May 5, 2024), Hellas Verona has the chance to achieve back-to-back wins against the Viola in Serie A for the first time since their three-game streak between 1988 and 1989, led by Osvaldo Bagnoli. Since the beginning of 2025, Hellas Verona has struggled offensively, netting only two goals in seven Serie A matches, making them the lowest-scoring team in the top five European leagues during this timeframe.

Additionally, they have managed to earn just one point from their last six home games in Serie A, failing to score in four of those matches. The last time the Gialloblù went five consecutive home games without a goal was between January and March 1979. On the other hand, Fiorentina has faced defeats in their last two Serie A matches against Inter and Como, marking the first time since September 2022 that they have lost back-to-back games against teams in the lower half of the table. Furthermore, Fiorentina has lost three of their last five away matches in Serie A (with one win and one draw), allowing more than one goal in three of those games, a stark contrast to their previous four away matches where they secured four wins and a draw without conceding.
