The Serie A action this weekend includes battles at both ends of the table and these Verona vs. Milan predictions focus on the title race and the early relegation scrap. Defending champions Milan are looking to close the gap at the top, with Verona struggling down at the bottom.
Verona vs. Milan odds
1 – Milan to win at – 10/17
2 – Milan under 2.5 total goals – 2/5
3 – Total goals scored over 2.5 – 4/5
4 – Both teams to score – 6/7
5 – Milan to win 2-1 at – 6/1
Milan’s Serie A title defence has not been as solid as Stefano Pioli would have expected in the opening weeks of 2022-23, as they currently sit in fifth place in the table.
However, their form has picked up in recent weeks and they head into this weekend just three points behind current league leaders Napoli.
Three Serie A wins from their last four games sets Pioli’s charges up as favourites to go on and win this one with hosts Verona losing all four of their last league outings.
Milan’s upturn in results has been based on solid, if slightly unspectacular, wins with under 2.5 goals scored by Pioli’s side in three of their last four league games. Two of those ended in a win for the defending champions.
Their last five league matches have included over 2.5 total goals scored by both sides – and despite their own poor form, three of Verona’s last five league outings have also featured over 2.5 total goals scored inside 90 minutes of action.
Despite having a clear edge in the race for three points at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi, Milan have struggled to keep clean sheets this season, with just one successful shutout in their last five league games.
Verona have also posed a goal threat in their own recent matches, with at least one goal scored in four of their last six matches – and they have only failed to score at home once so far this season.
Milan need to maintain their strong run of wins ahead of the World Cup and Pioli will be confident of keeping pace in the title race as they look to retain their title in 2023.

Verona team news
The interim Verona head coach has no new injury issues ahead of this game but key defender Federico Ceccerhini is missing as he serves a one game ban. Davide Faraoni is set to rotate back into the starting eleven to replace him this weekend.
Milan team news
Pioli has an expanding injury list ahead of this weekend, with first choice keeper Mike Maignan and midfield duo Charles De Ketelaere and Alexis Saelemaekers both set to miss out. A lack of options could mean Pioli sticks with the starting eleven from their league win over Juventus last weekend.
