&lt;p&gt;A relegation six-pointer is in store at the Bentegodi as Verona and Cagliari meet. The home side, who have just four points and played out a 0-0 draw at Pisa in their last outing, are hoping to pick up their first win of the season. Cagliari are in a slightly more comfortable position, sitting on exactly twice as many points as Verona, but they’ve collected just one point from their last three games. The Sardinians will now be looking to return to winning ways to stay clear of the bottom of the table.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There have been 34 official meetings between the two sides at the Bentegodi: 18 Verona wins, 10 draws, and 6 Cagliari victories.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Verona have not won at home since 23 February, a 1–0 over Fiorentina in Serie A: since then they have played 10 home matches across 2024/25 and 2025/26, with a record of 8 draws (including draws in each of the last six) and 2 defeats.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At home, the Scaligeri have been scoreless for 226 minutes; their only home goal this season was by Orban from the penalty spot in the 44th minute of Verona–Juventus 1–1 on 20 September.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;COACHES and PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As players, Paolo Zanetti and Fabio Pisacane faced each other only once, in Serie B in 2009/10: Torino–Ancona 1–1 (goals by Rolando Bianchi for the Granata and&amp;nbsp; Schiattarella for the Marchigiani).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Leonardo Pavoletti scored his most recent goal in official competition on 28 April, away at Verona.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No Verona player has finished a Serie A season in double figures since 2021/22; that year, three players reached the mark: Simeone (17), Caprari (12) and Barák (11).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: none&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: none&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DIONISI (DEI GIUDICI – TRINCHIERI) IV: DI MARCO, VAR: DOVERI, AVAR: SERRA&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPCOMING MATCHES IN SERIE A&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Como-Verona (Wednesday 29 October, 18.30 CET)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cagliari-Sassuolo (Thursday 30 October, 18.30 CET)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;
