Miguel Veloso - Assists a goal against Salernitana Veloso had one assist, two shots (one on goal), 14 crosses, two tackles, one interception, and created six chances in the 2-1 defeat Sunday.
Impact Though Salernitana emerged victorious, Veloso never gave up on trying to pull ahead. Normally an aggressive crosser, the midfielder fired significantly more crosses into the box this match than he has in any other this season, and the same was true for the number of chances he created. While Veloso is a consistent facilitator, he has only managed to assist on three goals this season.
JANUARY 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

JANUARY 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Darko Lazovic - Scores a late goal in loss Lazovic had one goal with three shots (one on goal), five crosses, two tackles and created three chances in the 2-1 loss to Salernitana on Sunday.
Impact It was too little too late for Lazovic, who scored his first goal of the season in the 63rd minute Sunday. To try and equalize, the full team pushed for another offensive conversion, and the midfielder helped by firing in as many crosses as he could. Unfortunately, none could find the back of the net.
JANUARY 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ivor Pandur - Concedes two goals in loss Pandur gave up two goals and had three saves in the 2-1 loss to Salernitana on Sunday.

Bosko Sutalo - Tests positive for COVID-19 Sutalo has contracted Coronavirus, Verona announced.

JANUARY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Nikola Kalinic - Used as sub against Spezia Kalinic (calf) took one off-target shot, created one scoring and committed four fouls in 19 minutes in Thursday's 2-1 win over Spezia.

JANUARY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Koray Gunter - Productive outing in return Gunter (calf) created one chance and made two tackles, four clearances and two interceptions during Thursday's 2-1 win over Spezia.
Impact Gunter returned from the calf injured that made him miss the previous four matches and thrived at the heart of the defense, racking up some solid numbers and keeping opposing forward at bay during most of the match. The centre back will certainly be featured once against during Sunday's home clash against Salernitana.
JANUARY 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Miguel Veloso - Sends in seven crosses in win Veloso had two shots (one on target), created two chances, sent in seven crosses (two accurate), made two tackles (both won) and was shown a yellow card during Thursday's 2-1 win o...
Impact Veloso bounced back from the poor performance on the previous match, being everywhere his side needed him to be, specially on the offensive end, where he led Verona in crosses. The veteran midfielder is always capable of contributing on both sides of the pitch and will try to keep racking up numbers during Sunday's home clash against Salernitana.
