Verona have acquitted themselves well so far this season but the sad truth is that the table does not reflect this fact.
While draws against the likes of Roma, Torino and Atalanta can be seen as positives for Verona, they simply have not been able to turn ties into triumphs and as a result are currently languishing in 15th place in the Serie A table.
Nonetheless, manager Andrea Mandorlini would have been pleased with the fact that his side have been performing bravely so far and he will surely be of hopeful of claiming a good result against Lazio this weekend.
Emil Hallfredsson, Mohamed Fares, Rafael Marquez and Luca Toni are all struggling with injuries and look unlikely to be featuring on the night.

Now Lazio will surely be hoping to bring about more consistency into their game, starting off with a clash against Verona this weekend.
Miroslav Klose, Stefan De Vrij and Antonio Candreva have been ruled out of the clash due to injuries while Lucas Biglia has been rated as a doubt.
