Hellas Verona is in a tough spot. They have not won any of their first ten Serie A matches. Their recent 2-1 home loss to Inter Milan shows their struggles this season. They compete well but lose because key moments don’t go their way. Their away record is just as bad, with no wins in five matches and only two points from a possible fifteen. This poor performance on the road is worrying, especially before their trip to Puglia. They need to find a way to end their winless streak against opponents who are struggling as well.
