Torino - Hellas Verona predictions

Betting odds can be illusive at times and Hellas Verona are more than capable of pulling an upset. However, Torino should have a clear path to victory if they stick to the plan.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Verona, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 5.21.

It’s fair to say Torino demonstrated their character in the last Serie A clash. They held it level at the break and after the full 90 minutes against a tough rival and managed to record an important draw (Lazio).

The odds in the visitors’ previous matchup put them on equal footing with their opponents Parma, and the HT/FT Draw confirms this assessment. Of course, Hellas Verona still got the short end of that stick. They were the hosts in that game, after all

Torino haven’t ended a single one of their previous 7 matches without getting their name on the score board. It’s a remarkable bit of consistency if nothing else.

With two matches in a row seeing not more than one or no goals, Verona’s recent history marks this match as a good time for Under 1.5 Goals bets.

Torino clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, though it doesn’t seem insurmountable by any means. They won despite a home-field disadvantage the last time they clashed with Verona, but it was a rather narrow victory.

Sunday's match will see both teams at full strength, able to utilize all their players.

And Under 2.5 Goals bet may not be the obvious choice, but that may be exactly what makes it good. The 888Sport sportsbook is pricing this fixture at 1.62, which offers substantial betting value. It’s not without risks, of course, but it’s statistically an excellent choice.
