Verona take on the visitors Napoli in the round 1 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, August 15th at Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi (Verona).
Verona enters the new season with a new coach. The "Mastiffs" got rid of the status of "football elevator" under Yurich - only he was able to gain a foothold in Serie A with his wards, stopping the unpleasant practice of constant departures from the top division. Ivan left a year ago, and this affected the performance of the team. But a new Croatian specialist, Tudor, was called in a timely manner, and with him they finished in a worthy 9th place. That's just this mentor went to Marseille. He was replaced by Cioffi, who showed himself well as interim manager in Udinese. But how will he manifest himself in a new place? And what will happen to the team that seriously updated the roster? We'll see you on the field.

Napoli will try to play no worse than last season. The "Partenopeia" after De Laurentiis fired Sarri, rolled back to supporting roles. The bet on Luciano Spalletti worked, as he was lured to southern Italy last summer. At the start, there was such a powerful segment that in Naples they again started talking about the Scudetto. True, the club was gradually blown away, but the 3rd place against the backdrop of previous failures was a serious breakthrough. It was in many ways the latest achievement of age leaders. Coulibaly, Ospina, Mertens and, most importantly, Insigne said goodbye to San Paolo in the summer. Yes, there are enough curious newcomers, and we can say about the rejuvenation of the composition. And Khvicha Kvaratskhelia should also become a new star. But did Spalletti have enough time to make a combat-ready team out of this? In any case, it will be interesting to see what happens with the ambitious and expressive southerners.
Verona had not lost for 3 fights in a row. But in March, Napoli was finally able to take the victory, also on the road. The fight ended 2-1, and Osimhen scored a “double” there. Verona is a rather strong team, but still it is an average team with a young mentor. We dare to assume that Napoli can win away.
Prediction for the match: Napoli to win.
