Verona vs Como: Serie A Prediction (19.05.2025)

On 19 May 2025 at 1:45 WIB, Verona will host Como in the 37th round of Serie A at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi. Bookmakers give a slight advantage to the visitors, but both teams have contrasting forms going into this crucial late-season encounter.

Verona: Struggling to Secure Safety

The Mastiffs have yet to mathematically guarantee their spot in Serie A next season. With two games left, Verona occupy 15th place, just five points clear of the relegation zone. The team lacks balance, especially defensively, conceding 64 goals, the worst defensive record in the league, tied with Monza, who have already been relegated.

Verona’s form is poor, currently on a six-match winless streak. Despite this, coach Paolo Zanetti faces no major injury issues, with only Abu Harroui and Pavel Davidovic sidelined.

Como: Mid-Table Surprise with Winning Momentum

For a newly promoted side, Como have performed exceptionally well under the leadership of Cesc Fàbregas. Sitting comfortably in mid-table, they are the only team to have won their last six matches in a row.

Como’s style is entertaining and fearless in attack, although their defense still needs improvement, as shown by their goal difference of 48 scored and 49 conceded.

Head-to-Head Stats

Earlier this season, these sides played an exciting match, with Como narrowly winning 3-2. The visitors dominated possession with 72% ball control and outshot Verona 24 to 6 (shots on target 11 to 3), showcasing their attacking superiority.

Prediction 

Given their contrasting current form, the advantage lies with the visitors, Como. Despite lacking much tournament motivation, Como will be eager to extend their winning streak.
