In this week 21 match, on Monday Feb 6th, Hellas Verona will host Lazio at Stadio Marc’antonio Bentegodi in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched Serie A teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 4 degrees, so hopefuly the match makes up for the weather. 18th placed Hellas Verona is fresh off their 1-1 draw against Udinese. Rodrigo Becão struck first for Hellas Verona on an own goal in the 4th minute, then Lazar Samardžić tied it up for Udinese in the 21st minute on a feed from Beto earning them at least the one point. Hellas Verona looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 6 of their last 10, while lazio sits at 3rd place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-1 loss against Juventus. Gleison Bremer scored the first goal for Juventus in the 44th minute, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, Lazio couldn’t muster any offence and Juventus ran away with the shutout win. With 17 points in their last 10 matches Lazio should be reasonably happy with their performance.
