Serie A is booming again! Salernita vs Verona, who will have the last laugh?
Salernitana came close to causing a major upset against Juventus in their recent match, taking the lead through Niccolo Pierozzi before conceding a late equalizer to end in a 1-1 draw. Despite their spirited performance, the result had little impact on their season, as they had already been relegated in April. Now, they are solely playing for pride.
Heading into the match against Verona, Salernitana finds themselves 13 points adrift of 19th-placed Sassuolo. Their last Serie A victory dates back to December, and they aim to secure a win to complete the double over a top-flight team for only the second time in their history.
On the other hand, Verona's hopes of survival took a hit in their recent loss to Torino, marking their second defeat in the last three matches. Despite picking up crucial points in previous months, they remain dangerously close to the relegation zone, sitting just two points above 18th-placed Empoli.
Verona will look to avoid consecutive defeats, a streak they haven't experienced since December and January when they lost to both Salernitana and league champions Inter Milan. However, their past struggles at Salernitana's ground add an extra challenge to their mission.
