Even though they are still slumped in the temporary relegation zone, Salernitana finally got the victory they wanted and they did it when they played away to Verona. This narrow victory allowed Salernitana to steal 3 points and could be an important asset for them to immediately escape the relegation zone. It is not easy for Salernitana to get through this season safely because they continue to lose in the last 4 matches without winning. Now they only have a difference of around 2 points from Verona to get away from the relegation zone and they must be able to do it in the next match.

But if we talk about their chances of winning in the next match, it will certainly be impossible because their opponents are Juventus and it is certain that Salernitana will still be held back and lose again.

That win against Verona might have been the most crucial of the whole season for Salernitana. If they didn't win that game, it would have been like a hard punch in their face. But what's more promising than just the result is how that result was achieved during the game and it was a game away from home. Salernitana was equally strong and they weren't impressed by the disadvantage to play away from home.

This keeps them connected to the teams ahead of them, which is crucially important for the games to come. But on the negative side they are now facing two very strong opponents, Juventus Turin and Napoli. It could have given them some momentum if they now met another team that is in or close to the relegation zone. But now they have to deal with some big teams first.

It's true, Salernitana appeared quite promising and didn't let their guard down in the slightest even though this was an away match. In fact, I even thought that Verona would win considering that this team is actually quite strong when they are at home against a similar team. Salernitana if they still haven't given up on the current situation and are trying their best to get out of the relegation zone as soon as possible.

But as fate would have it, Salernitana's possibility of achieving a winning streak was interrupted in the next match and it became another defeat that could not be avoided. Against Juventus and Napolo, preparation is not taken into account and they must first get through these two difficult matches if they want to win again. But if they are able to do the same thing as against Milan and manage to hold Juventus or Napoli to a draw then that will be an added value to their performance.
