Verona preview: Hoping for a good home performance
With two wins, draws, and losses each in their last six games in the league, Hellas Verona have been quite inconsistent lately. That being said, this is not a bad haul for a team that's 14th in the standings and looking at a mid-table finish, at best. Verona are also seven points ahead of the relegation zone and with seven games left in the season, they can't get too relaxed just yet.
Verona will have to once again manage without injured Casper Tengstedt, Marco Davide Faraoni, Tomas Suslov, and Abdou Harroui.
Predicted lineup: Montipo (GK), Ghilardi, Coppola, Valentini, Tchatchoua, Duda, Dawidowicz, Bernede, Bradaric, Sarr & Mosquera

Genoa preview: On a solid run of form
With just two losses in their last eight games, Genoa have done well recently and they've managed to stay in the race for the top-half finish since they're currently 12th in the standings. That being said, they are too far behind teams in places that lead to Europe next season.
Meanwhile, Maxwel Cornet, Mario Balotelli, Mattia Bani, and Hugo Cuenca are sidelined with injuries, while Morten Frendrup is suspended.
Predicted lineup: Leali (GK), Sabelli, De Winter, Vasquez, Caricol, Onana, Zanoli, Messias, Malinovskyi, Miretti & Pinamonti

Player to watch: Daniel Mosquera
With Verona's top scorer Casper Tengstedt out with an injury, Mosquera will once again be the main focus of their offence. With five goals in Serie A this season, the 25-year-old Colombian forward has done well and has the quality to lead his team to a win against Genoa.
