Torino vs Verona prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2025-04-05 13:00.
[p]Torino needed a goal from substitute Gvidas Gineitis to record yet another stalemate, this time earning a handy point at Lazio last Monday (1-1). It was their seventh draw from 12 league games this calendar year (W4, L1), and as a result, only Juventus (13) have drawn more Serie A matches this season than the Bulls (12). The downside of these dropped points is their continuous mid-table presence, though they began this round just one point adrift of the top half.[/p]
[p]Paolo Vanoli’s side should be encouraged by the arrival of Hellas Verona, a side they defeated in the last two encounters as part of 11 consecutive top-flight unbeaten H2Hs (W5, D6). As Torino chase a third consecutive Serie A H2H win for the first time since 1969/70, three wins from their last four home games (D1) adds weight to those claims, as does an unbeaten Serie A record at home to current bottom-half opposition (W3, D4) to a lesser extent.[/p]
[p]Verona recorded a second consecutive clean sheet last matchday when they followed up a 1-0 win at Udinese with a 0-0 draw at home to Parma, and now have the opportunity to record three clean sheets in a row in this competition for the first time since April 2000. The Gialloblù are still the worst defensive side of this league campaign (GA 58) despite those successes, although their position in this competition isn’t currently under threat courtesy of the seven-point buffer to 18th place they held at the start of this round.[/p]
[p]With four wins on the road since the start of December (D1, L3) and all three defeats coming against traditional heavyweights Napoli, AC Milan, and Juventus, Verona could be a tough assignment for mid-table Torino, just as they have been in recent years with seven draws across their last nine away top-flight H2Hs (W1, L1).[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Ché Adams may need some time to influence this match, as seven of his eight league goals have come beyond half-time, including Torino’s last goal in their 3-2 reverse fixture win. Daniel Mosquera could be the one responding for Verona, as his five league goals this season were either during or after the 75th minute, including their last strike in the previous H2H.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Only four of Torino’s last 11 home league matches saw both teams score.[/p]
