Zanetti eyes safety, Baroni wants form: Verona v Torino kicks off | OneFootball

The wait is over at the Bentegodi. At 6:00 PM, Paolo Zanetti’s Hellas Verona and Marco Baroni’s Torino will take the field for a clash that puts crucial points at stake for opposite objectives. The Gialloblù need to move up the table to distance themselves from the murky waters of the relegation zone, while the Granata are seeking the consistency needed to give definitive meaning to their season and look upwards.

Verona-Torino, the official line-ups: mirrored challenge at the Bentegodi

The official line-ups confirm a mirrored match: both coaches are relying on a 3-5-2 formation. At home, Zanetti secures the defense with the strength of Bella-Kotchap and Nunez, while in midfield the keys are entrusted to Al Musrati and Serdar. Up front, confidence is placed in the Giovane-Mosquera duo, tasked with breaking down the Granata rearguard. On the other side, Marco Baroni surprises with some choices. Paleari is in goal, but the big news is the exclusion of Duvan Zapata, who starts on the bench. The attacking tandem will be formed by “Cholito” Simeone and the Scot Che Adams. On the wings, there’s offensive push with Aboukhlal and Lazaro, while Vlasic will operate as an inside midfielder with license to attack.

THE OFFICIAL LINE-UPS: HELLAS VERONA (3-5-2): Montipò; Nunez, Nelsson, Bella-Kotchap; Oyegoke, Serdar, Al Musrati, Bernede, Frese; Giovane, Mosquera. Coach: Zanetti.

TORINO (3-5-2): Paleari; Ismajli, Maripan, Coco; Aboukhlal, Ilkhan, Gineitis, Vlasic, Lazaro; Simeone, Adams. Coach: Baroni.
