Lautaro Martínez becomes Serie A's MVP ahead of season finale.
As Verona seek to cap off their season with a strong finish, they'll face newly crowned champions Inter Milan, who are eager to end their impressive campaign on a high note at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi.
Hellas Verona
Verona [WLWLW] secured safety from relegation after a crucial 2-1 win against already-relegated Salernitana. Two first-half goals from Tomáš Suslov [22’] and Michael Folorunsho [45+3’] ensured Gli Scaligeri would remain in the topflight next season, despite Giulio Maggiore’s consolation goal [90’].
With 37 points [9W, 10D, & 18L], Marco Baroni’s men sit in 13th place, having just as many points as 14th-placed Leece, but boasting a superior goal difference. Verona, who narrowly escaped relegation last season via a playoff with Spezia, have now managed to avoid relegation for a fifth consecutive season.
With Serie A safety secured, they can turn their attention to ending the season on a high note. Verona will be looking to finish in 13th place when they welcome Inter Milan in this weekend’s final match of the season.
The hosts could draw inspiration from their recent relatively impressive form, which has seen them pick up 19 points since the close of the winter transfer window on February 1 — more than any other team in this period poised to finish in the lower half of the table. Marco Baroni is expected to keep the familiar 4-2-3-1 formation, with Karol Świderski leading the attack.
Meanwhile, Thomas Henry and Ondrej Duda are both suspended for the final game of the season.
Inter
Newly crowned Serie A champions Inter Milan are coming off a 1-1 draw against Lazio, which saw them miss out on the opportunity to beat the club’s highest point tally for a Serie A season, achieved in 2006-2007.
The Black and Blues, who have accrued a massive 93 points (29 wins, 6 draws, and 2 losses) this season, will be looking to get back to winning ways when they make the trip to Verona this weekend.
Inter have won each of their last seven Serie A matches against the hosts. The Nerazzurri have scored in their last 25 league matches against Verona and will be hoping these numbers count as they aim to wrap up an impressive league campaign.
A 3-5-2 formation is expected from Simone Inzaghi against Verona, with Alexis Sánchez and Serie A MVP of the season, Lautaro Martínez, in attack. The 26-year-old, who is Serie A’s top scorer with 24 goals and six assists, will receive his award just before kick-off. Hakan Calhanoglu was also awarded the best midfielder of the 2023-24 Serie A season.
