Stats before the game

Last season, Cagliari triumphed in both of their Serie A encounters against Hellas Verona without allowing any goals; the Sardinians have a chance to achieve three consecutive victories over Verona for just the second time in Serie A history, following their successes in 1971 and 1972. They have yet to achieve three straight clean sheets against the Venetians in the league.

Hellas Verona has claimed victory in 15 out of 38 Serie A matches against Cagliari (D11, L12); they have only managed more wins against Fiorentina (16) in the top division.

At home, Hellas Verona remains unbeaten in 17 of their last 19 Serie A matches against Cagliari (W10, D7). However, one of the two away victories against the Gialloblù occurred in their latest encounter (2-0 on April 28, with goals from Pavoletti and Deiola).

In their last 16 league games, Hellas Verona has only secured one win (D9 L6)—a 2-1 away victory against Empoli on May 25—and they have struggled to find the net in 10 of those matches, including five of the last six.

Cagliari has gathered four points from their last two league away games (a 2-1 win against Lecce and a 1-1 draw against Udinese); the Sardinians could remain unbeaten in three consecutive away matches in the same Serie A season for the first time since February 2022 (W2 D1).

🇮🇹 Federico Dionisi is set to officiate the match. Assisting him will be Pietro Dei Giudici from Latina and Marco Trinchieri from Milan. The fourth official for the game will be Davide Di Marco from Ciampino. Daniele Doveri from Roma 1 and Marco Serra from Turin will serve as the VAR and AVAR officials, respectively.
