What an exciting match! Hellas Verona and Lecce ended the Serie A Week 36 game with a draw on Sunday, May 11, 2025, at the Marc’Antonio Bentegodi Stadium in Verona, Italy. The match ended 1-1 which benefits Verona more than Lecce. All the goals were scored in the first half, with Coppola equalizing after Krstovic’s early goal. The second half was much more exciting, as the yellow and blues came out with more intensity and nearly took the lead. Lecce struggled to make an impact in the second half, while for Hellas, this point brings Zanetti’s team closer to their goal, which is still not guaranteed, leaving Giampaolo’s squad in a precarious position.
Giampaolo’s team is focused on one goal: achieving the victory they’ve been longing for since January 31st.
Lecce scored first in the 23rd minute, thanks to Nikola Krstovic’s left-footed shot into the bottom left corner. Tete Morente provided the assist, passing from the edge of the area to Krstovic, who made no mistake in front of Montipò! Verona’s defense was a bit too laid-back in that moment.

In the first half of this crucial match, each team found the net. Lecce played more convincingly, with Krstovic scoring after a great setup from Tete Morente. Verona responded with a header from Coppola, leveling the score from a free kick by Suslov.
✅ Stats before the game:
Hellas Verona’s impressive run of nine matches without a loss (6 wins, 3 draws) came to an end with a 0-1 defeat to Lecce in their latest Serie A encounter. This could lead to a rare occurrence of back-to-back losses against Lecce, something that hasn’t happened since the 2000-2001 season.
Lecce has yet to win on Hellas Verona’s home ground in Serie A, with a record of four draws and five losses over nine away games, including a 2-2 draw in November 2023. They have also faced Genoa nine times away without a victory.

Hellas Verona have lost their last three league matches without scoring; the Gialloblù have not suffered four defeats in a row in general in Serie A since last November-December, while they have not lost four consecutive matches without scoring since March 2014, with Andrea Mandorlini on the bench.
Hellas Verona have failed to score in 10 of their 17 home games this season and could go without scoring in more home games for the first time in their history in a single Serie A tournament (10 also in 1988/89).
Lecce have not won in 12 league games (D4 L8) – the last success for the Salento team dates back to January 31st at Parma (3-1) – and could go without a win in more games in a row for the first time in the tournament since 16 consecutive games between November 1997 and March 1998.
