Modena – Hellas Verona

Modena host Hellas Verona in what promises to be a tightly contested Serie B clash, with the home side currently perched fourth on 10 points after three wins, a draw and a loss, and a solid 8‑4 goal difference. Verona sit only two places below, holding seventh place with seven points from two victories, one draw and two defeats, but they boast a superior attack, having netted ten times while conceding seven. The gap in points and the slight edge in goal difference suggest Modena will look to assert their defensive stability, whereas Verona will aim to exploit their more prolific forward line. Both teams are eager to close the gap to the leaders, making the encounter a pivotal one for their respective pushes up the table.
