Neither of these sides have made the best start to the season but we're expecting a tight and tense 90-minutes when Fiorentina host Verona in Serie A this weekend.

Draw
Four of the last five league meetings between Fiorentina and Verona have ended in stalemates and we're predicting another draw between the two clubs on Sunday. Three of Fiorentina's last six outings in all competitions have ended in draws and the same can be said of two of Verona's last five outings in Serie A, so you can see why we're leaning towards a draw this weekend.
Under 2.5 Goals
Expert for asian handicap tips: There is a good chance that we won't see many goals in this game as five of the last six head-to-heads between these two clubs have ended with under 2.5 goals being scored. Fewer than three goals have also been produced in four of Fiorentina's last six outings as well as in four of Verona's last five matches. Both teams lost their top scorers from last season and don't possess the same goal threat anymore.

Deep into stoppage-time, Fiorentina had insult added to injury when defender Igor was shown a second yellow card and will now miss the game against Verona.
