Ivan Juric hosts his former club Hellas Verona at the Stadio Grande Torino after his two-year spell with the Gialloblu.

The Croatian coach could pick Mërgim Vojvoda over Ola Aina and Cristian Ansaldi at left wing-back. Sasa Lukic and Tommaso Pobega should start in midfield. Gleison Bremer has calf issues but will be fit to play.

Koffi Djidji, Simone Verdi and Andrea Belotti are still out of action. The Granata captain will return at the end of January.

Hellas Verona are the team with the most goals (33) among the clubs in the second part of the table. However, they’ve only collected seven points from eight games away from the Bentegodi (1W, 4D, 3L).

Four players out of action for Igor Tudor, including Nikola Kalinic. In all fairness, Hellas don’t seem in need of a striker with Giovanni Simeone who has scored 12 goals in 16 matches.
