Hellas Verona vs Napoli Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Serie A 2024-25
Antonio Conte is set for his first game as Napoli boss.
Hellas Verona have made a lot of changes in the team this season. Paolo Zanetti took the charge after replacing former manager Marco Baroni in the dugout. Baroni endured a difficult 2023-24 season in which they finished in the 13th position in the Serie A.
However, the team is starting to gel quickly under their new boss after a strong pre-season. The campaign saw them collect four wins, one draw and one loss to enjoy a positive performance before the new season starts.
Napoli are also going through similar circumstances after appointing Antonio Conte at the helm to take the team to the top again. Last season was a disappointing campaign for the team after finishing in the tenth position.
This poor form has seen three managers throughout the campaign with Rudi Garcia, Walter Mazzarri and Francesco Calzona all managing the club within the last season. However, with Antonio Conte at the helm and the quality players they have signed this season, they will be in the title race by the end of the season after a positive showing during the pre-season.

Players to Watch
Casper Tengstedt (Hellas Verona)
The summer signing on loan from Benfica will be aiming to put in an excellent performance for the team in his debut match. Last season, he made 31 appearances for Benfica netting four goals and assisting another five. Tengstedt is known for his excellent movements and ability to hold up the play upfront to bring his teammates into play. He is also an excellent finisher of the ball.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (Napoli)
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been one of the shining lights for the team in the past two Serie A seasons after emerging as one of the most exciting wingers in world football. The player is fresh from his heroics in the Euro 2024 with Georgia. There he captained the side to a historic round of 16 match for the first time in a major tournament. Kvaratskhelia is one of the finest players on the team who can win matches with his brilliant play.
