This Sunday at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi, Hellas Verona and Como 1907 face off in a crucial Serie A Match Day 36 clash, kicking off at 11:30 on DAZN. It's a battle of two teams heading in very different directions—one fighting for survival, the other eyeing European glory.

Hellas Verona are in deep trouble. Sitting 19th with just 20 points, Paolo Sammarco's squad is desperate for a spark. They managed a gritty 1-1 draw against Juventus last time out, which shows heart, but one win in their last 18 home matches is a glaring red flag. The Bentegodi faithful are hoping that momentum—or pride—can finally turn the tide.

On the other side, Como 1907 are enjoying a dream season. With 62 points, they sit 6th in the table, and Cesc Fàbregas has his team playing with confidence and composure. Their last outing was a solid 0-0 draw against Napoli, and they've been tough to beat on the road—only two defeats in their last 12 away matches, and they've scored in three straight on their travels. Still, Como have just one win in their last six overall, so they'll be eager to get back to winning ways.

History favors Como, too. They beat Verona 3-1 in their last meeting, and Fàbregas has never lost to this opponent in three tries (two wins, one draw). Meanwhile, Verona boss Paolo Zanetti has yet to beat Como in three attempts, with two losses and a draw.

Predicted Lineups:
Hellas Verona: Montipò; Nelsson, Edmundsson, Frese; Bernède, Belghali, Bradaric, Gagliardini, Akpa Akpro; Suslov, Bowie
Como 1907: Butez; Smolcic, Kempf, Diego Carlos, Valle; Perrone, da Cunha; Diao, Paz, Baturina; Douvikas

For Verona, it's about survival. For Como, it's about staying in the European hunt. Expect a tense, high-stakes afternoon in Verona—one where every pass, tackle, and goal could define the rest of the season.
