Hellas Verona vs AS Roma Prediction - 24th May 2026

Hellas Verona host AS Roma in a crucial Serie A encounter on the final weekend of the 2025/26 campaign. Verona sit in 19th place with 21 points, while Roma occupy 4th with 70 points. The disparity in quality and current form is stark, setting up a fixture where the visitors are heavy favorites. Hellas Verona's home record has been catastrophic this season. In their last five home matches, they have failed to win or score a single goal, losing four and drawing one. Their home goals scored per game sits at 0.00, while they concede an average of 1.00. Recent results highlight this offensive drought: 0-1 losses to Como and AC Milan, a 0-0 draw with Lecce, and 0-1 defeats to Fiorentina and Genoa. The only positive note is a 2-1 victory over Bologna away, but at the Bentegodi Stadium, they are struggling to find the net. AS Roma, conversely, are in excellent form. They have won six of their last ten matches, including a 2-0 victory over Lazio on May 17. Roma's away form is particularly potent, boasting a 50% win rate in their last four road trips. They average 2.00 goals scored per away game, with recent scorelines including a 3-2 win at Parma and a 2-0 victory over Bologna. Their attacking metrics are strong, averaging 12.9 shots per game with a 36.4% shot accuracy. Defensively, they have kept five clean sheets in their last ten games, though they have conceded 2.25 goals per away game recently. The head-to-head record heavily favors the visitors. Roma have won six of the last ten meetings, including a 2-0 win at this venue in September 2025. The mathematical goal expectancy for this fixture is 2.88 total goals (1.38 for Verona, 1.50 for Roma). While Verona's home scoring is abysmal, Roma's attacking momentum and the overall goal environment suggest a match likely to see multiple goals. The market prices Over 2.5 Goals at 1.80, which aligns with a fair probability of 52.63% but offers a slight edge given Roma's consistent away scoring and Verona's inability to shut out opponents completely.
