3-2
Chievo v Verona Predictions for Sunday's 11.30am kick-off Italian Serie A league fixture set to face hosts Chievo and a Verona team at Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi. This is Serie A’s first Derby Della Scala of the season between the 2 Verona sides, Chievo and Hellas. The name of the derby originates from the Scala family, who ruled Verona throughout the early renaissance period.
The derby returns this season as newly promoted Hellas Verona finished as runners up in Serie B last year. They have had a hard time of it since and the reality of Serie A life is hitting them, having scored 4 goals in 8 games, on average 0.5 per game.
The fans witnessed a feisty affair last time these sides met in February ‘16, in a game that saw 2 red cards, a missed penalty, and 4 goals in a game eventually won 3-1 by Hellas Verona.
This derby tends to bring out the competitive spirit in the players. The last 6 matches between the 2 clubs have produced a total of 30 yellow and 2 red cards - an average of 5 cards a game.
Verona: Nicolas - Fares, Heurtaux, Caracciolo, Caceres - Zuculini, Fossati, Bessa - Cerci, Pazzini, Romulo (4-3-3 formation)
