Hellas Verona are currently 10th in the league table, and have won two of their last five league games. Argentine striker Giovanni Simeone has done well so far, and has already scored six league goals for his club.

Giovanni Simeone is the first player in Europe's top five divisions to score 4+ goals in a single league game so far this season:

◉ 4 shots
◉ 4 shots on target
◉ 4 goals

Juventus, on the other hand, surprisingly lost to Sassuolo yesterday. Massimiliano Allegri's men were on a good run of form before this game, but after a poor start to the season they find themselves 7th in the league.

Juventus will be the favourites to win here.

Prediction: Hellas Verona 0-2 Juventus
