Both Hellas Verona and Juventus will be coming into this clash already knowing their fates for next campaign. The Gialloblu are set for a return to Serie B after a poor showing this term that has seen them pick up just four wins all season. Meanwhile, the Bianconeri made it a fifth consecutive Scudetto title (for the second time in their history) and will be hoping to wrap up this term on a high note.
Hellas Verona
Given that they're going to be featuring in the second tier next season, Luigi Delneri's side really have little to play for in Sunday's fixture. Verona have not beaten Juventus at home since April 2000, and since the start of 2016, only Bologna have managed to stop Massimiliano Allegri's men from scoring in Serie A as well as from winning a match.
Furthermore, the Gialloblu have the worst attacking side in the entire division, with a dismal 30 goals from 36 matches. Given that Luca Toni - who will be retiring after this match - has been struggling with injuries this season, this is no surprise. The veteran attacker, who managed to grab the Capocannoniere award last term despite his advancing years, was vital in Verona managing to stay afloat, and not having his available to lead the line for large spells this season really has had a huge impact on the team.
Luca Toni will be lining up for the last time - both for Verona and as a professional football player this Sunday. Will he be able to score against one of his former sides?
The powerful attacker is quite well known to Serie A fans, as he has represented quite a slew of teams throughout Italy before arriving at his current side. Fiorentina, Juventus, Palermo, Genoa, and Roma are among some of those teams, and the 2006 World Cup winner also spent some time with Bundesliga titans Bayern Munich, where he also won a top scorer prize as well.
Juventus
Meanwhile, Juventus presently are in cruise control. The Bianconeri now will have to look forward to the Coppa Italia final against AC Milan coming up in a few weeks, and they are viewed as heavy favorites to easily deal with the Rossoneri to make it a domestic double.
Allegri's side have been simply unstoppable domestically since the end of this past October and are already looking forward to next season as they hope to extend this domestic dominance into their European campaign as well. Juve have won 25 out of their past 26 games, with Bologna being the only side to successfully prevent them from clinching all three points, and although they will be missing a whole slew of players for Sunday's match, they will be expected to deal with the already-relegated Verona without too much fuss.
Paul Pogba, Hernanes, Stephan Lichsteiner, and Mario Mandzukic will all miss out due to a ban, whilst Claudio Marchisio, Giorgio Chiellini, Martin Caceres, Sami Khedira, and likely Alvaro Morata are all unavailable as a result of injury. Still, Juventus are undefeated against Verona in their past 12 games across all competitions and have scored at least two goals in six of those matches, so for all intents and purposes, this looks set to be another straightforward win for Allegri's men.
