Key Stats
- Fiorentina have won four of their last five league meetings with Verona and currently sit 19 points above their hosts in the Serie A table.
- Verona have really struggled at home this season where they are averaging just 0.83 points per game.
- Fiorentina's top scorer Moise Kean returns from suspension this weekend and will be looking to add to his 15 Serie A goals.

Verona score an average of 0.92 goals per home game and they go up against a Fiorentina side that are averaging 1.58 goals per away game this season. With 83% of the hosts' home games producing over 2.5 goals, we're inclined to back Firoentina to claim a narrow 2-1 victory on Sunday.

Verona preview: Lost four of last six
Verona were at the San Siro last weekend to face AC Milan for what turned out to be a tight and tense 90 minutes.
In the end, a solitary goal in the 75th minute proved enough for the hosts to claim a 1-0 win, despite a spirited performance from the Verona players.
Daniele Ghilardi returns to the side following a suspension but Suat Serdar, Martin Frese, Koray Guenter and Abdou Harroui could all miss the game through injury.
Predicted lineup: Montipo (GK), Dawidowicz, Bradaric, Tchatchoua, Valentini, Coppola, Duda, Kastanos, Niasse, Suslov & Sarr

Fiorentina preview: Back-to-back defeats
Fiorentina had been hoping to bounce back from their 2-1 defeat at Inter Milan last time out when they played host to Como on Sunday.
However, without Moise Kean leading the line, the home side simply couldn't put the ball into the back of the net and ended up losing the game 2-0.
Moise Kean is back from suspension and will surely go straight back into the starting lineup for the visitors this weekend.
Predicted lineup: de Gea (GK), Gosens, Pongracic, Dodo, Ranieri, Cataldi, Mandragora, Kean, Folorunsho, Fagioli & Beltrán

Player to watch: Moise Kean
Moise Kean is finally showing his true ability following a difficult start to his professional career.
The talented striker made a big name for himself at Juventus but failed to impress when he moved to Everton. A loan spell with PSG brought out the best in Kean but his return to Juventus saw the goals dry up.
Fiorentina's top scorer returns following a suspension
This season, Kean has been at his very best, scoring 15 times in 23 Serie A games, making himself a star player at Fiorentina and someone we are backing to score against Verona on Sunday.
