Is Tudor’s Verona better than Juric’s? The numbers show that …
Last season was an eyeglass draw, that is to say 0-0.
In 2019-2020 the last victory of Verona arrived, 2-1: Sanabria in the 41 ‘, Verre on a penalty in the 55’, Zaccagni in the 65 ‘.
Genoa’s most recent success was in 2017-2018, 0-1: Pandev man of the match in the 47th minute of the first half.
But let’s not be fooled.
The story of this challenge winks at the hosts. And it does so quite clearly. Out of 31 matches played between Serie A, 14, and Cadeteria, 17, we find 13 successes for the Scaligeri, 15 X marks, 3 affirmations for the Ligurians. On the front of the markings. Then, the ratio is practically 2-1: 41 for the yellow and blue against 23 for the rossoblù.
Twenty points that divide the two clubs in the standings.
Verona with 42 points (11V – 9X – 10P with 55GF and 47GS), 26 conquered on their own ground (8V – 2X – 5P with 31GF and 20GS). Genoa responds with 22 (2V – 16X – 12P with 23GF and 47GS), half of which, 11, made far from the Ligurian capital (1V – 8X – 6P with 13GF and 28GS).
NB: since the rule of three points per victory was introduced in Serie A, only in another season the yellow and blue had won 42 points after 30 rounds, in 2019-2010, but the then team of Juric had scored less than that of Tudor, 37-55, and has a worse goal difference than the current one, +1 against +8.
