Aiming to build on a rousing 4-3 victory in last weekend’s derby clash against Inter Milan, Juve started on the front foot and eventually found the opener after 19 minutes, when the ball was worked out to Francisco Conceicao on the left flank, and he drove inside before burying a perfect finish in the bottom corner from the edge of the box.
Despite the strong start, Igor Tudor’s side lost their intensity after hitting the front as the hosts started to grow back into the game.
Verona had little to show for their efforts, but against a team travelling on the back of seven goals conceded in two games, they found a leveller after a stroke of luck just before half-time.
A long throw into the box appeared to be dealt with by Joao Mario, but a VAR review showed he controlled the ball with his arm, not his head.
Despite the lengthy wait, Gift Orban kept his cool, and his penalty had just enough power to beat Michele Di Gregorio, who tipped the ball in off the bar.
The visitors had a chance shortly after the break when Dusan Vlahovic broke through on goal, but his near-post finish was turned behind by Lorenzo Montipo.
From there, Verona enjoyed some dominance, and after Orban saw a powerful effort turned over the bar by Di Gregorio, Suat Serdar turned the ball home from close range at the three-quarter mark.
This time, though, Verona felt the other side of a VAR review, with an eventual offside decision that kept the scores level.
Even though the game felt ripe for a late twist, the scoreline remained unaltered.
Despite failing to record a win in their opening four games, Verona have claimed three draws and remain outside the drop zone in 15th, whilst the point takes Juventus one point clear at the top of Serie A for now.
