Verona vs Juventus Prediction for 21 September 2025 - Football

📢 What can we expect from the clash between Verona and Juventus in the fourth round of Serie A? The match will take place at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi and promises to be a study in contrasts: the hosts have struggled with consistency, alternating between impressive performances and disappointing ones, while the "Old Lady" has kicked off the season in top form and looks like a strong contender for the title. However, Verona has often made life difficult for favorites on their home turf, so this upcoming match won't be a walk in the park for the Turin side.

Head-to-Head

📊 Recent head-to-head history between Verona and Juventus heavily favors the Turin side: out of 31 encounters, the "Old Lady" have claimed victory in 21, while the "Mastiffs" have managed just 4 wins, with 6 matches ending in a draw. Last season, Juventus reaffirmed their dominance—first, they convincingly thrashed their opponents 3-0 away, and then secured another clean sheet with a 2-0 home win in March.

Hellas Verona Team Overview

🟡 Verona's start to the new Serie A campaign has been inconsistent, with the team clearly lacking stability. The "Mastiffs" are capable of delivering a quality performance, only to unexpectedly falter, and then bounce back with commendable football. A prime example is their away game against Lazio on August 31, where Verona appeared utterly helpless, conceding four unanswered goals (0-4).

📌 However, following the international break, the team showcased a completely different level of play. In their home match against Cremonese, the "Mastiffs" dominated throughout, creating numerous chances (xG 1.89-0.17), yet they couldn't break through for a win (0-0). After three rounds, Verona sit 17th with two points, but it's too early to conclude that they will be embroiled in a relegation battle.

Juventus Turin Team Overview

⚪ Juventus are regarded as one of Serie A's powerhouses, though in recent years they've struggled to consistently uphold that status, often settling for a top-four finish rather than contending for the title. However, they've kicked off the new season in impressive fashion. The Old Lady have clinched three victories in their opening three matches, sharing the top spot with Napoli.

✅ Their last match against Inter was particularly thrilling. Juventus took the lead twice, allowed their opponents to equalize and even go ahead, but showcased their resilience by scoring twice late on to secure a spectacular 4-3 win. In the Champions League, they also demonstrated their fighting spirit: against Borussia Dortmund in the first round, trailing 4-2, the Turin side managed to score twice in stoppage time to snatch a 4-4 draw. However, such emotionally draining encounters might impact their freshness and focus in the upcoming game.

Latest news

Hellas Verona

📣 Paolo Zanetti, the coach of Verona, expressed his frustration after his team failed to convert a barrage of shots into a victory in their recent goalless draw against Cremonese: "It's really disappointing—we took 18 shots on goal and still didn't win. This result doesn't satisfy us, but we'll look to pick up points in other matches."

🚫 Verona are dealing with a significant list of absentees affecting several areas of the squad. Abdu Harroui and Daniel Mosquera are sidelined with injuries and are expected to return only in early October. Roberto Gagliardini is also out with a shoulder injury, with no clear timeline for his recovery. The participation of Fallou Sarr and Nicolas Valentini is in doubt due to physical discomfort and hamstring issues, respectively. The most serious setback is Tomas Suslov, who has suffered a cruciate ligament tear, ruling him out until the end of February 2026.

Juventus Turin

📣 Igor Tudor, Juventus' coach, reflected on the 4-4 draw against Borussia, emphasizing that the team can't afford to concede so many goals: "I've had enough of these kinds of matches... We're letting in too many goals. Yes, we score a lot ourselves, but we can't continue like this."

🚫 Juventus are facing some specific injury challenges, though they are still significant. Arkadiusz Milik is sidelined with a calf injury and won't be returning to the field anytime soon. Fabio Miretti is still recovering from a thigh injury and is expected to be back by early October.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

⚽️ Goal Prediction

In head-to-head encounters against Juventus, Verona appear particularly ineffective in attack—failing to score in 6 of their last 7 Serie A meetings. The Turin side not only consistently come out on top in this matchup but often do so with a clean sheet, underscoring their significant class advantage. Considering the teams are also in completely different forms, the best call is to predict that Verona will not score.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Recent head-to-head clashes between Verona and Juventus have been marked not only by predictable outcomes but also by modest corner stats. In six consecutive Serie A matches between them, no more than nine corners have been taken. The "Old Lady" tends to play pragmatically, relying on their class, while the "Mastiffs" usually fail to exert serious attacking pressure. As a result, the games proceed at a measured pace with few set pieces. Therefore, our pick is under 9.5 corners total.
