VER vs GEN Dream11 Prediction: In Italy’s Serie A this weekend following the international break, and on Monday night, Hellas Verona face off with Genoa. The visitors have only played two games to date, as their previous fixture – against Torino, before the international break – was cancelled due to 22 positive COVID-19 tests at the club. Even with a number of those affected now returning to the squad, the Grifoni will have their work cut out at Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi, as they face a Verona side with two wins out of three so far. One of the hosts’ ‘wins’ was, in fact, initially a creditable draw with Roma, later transmuted into a 3-0 win due to a clerical oversight in Roma’s administration department. Last season saw the two sides split results. Verona defeated Genoa 2-1 at the Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi, but Genoa returned the favour with a 3-0 win on the final day of the season. That match was marred by three red cards, including two in added time.

Who will win VER vs GEN Today Match Prediction Football
Taking into account all the disruption caused by a serious virus outbreak, Genoa head into this game relieved to have key men back in the fold but also short of collective preparation. Verona, then, can take advantage to increase their points tally and give an opportunity to thoroughbred signing Nikola Kalinic to settle into life at the Bentegodi. We predict a 2-0 win for the hosts in today match prediction.
