In this paper, we discuss the accuracy and the robustness of the mixed Virtual Element Methods when dealing with highly anisotropic diffusion problems. In particular, we analyze the performance of different approaches which are characterized by different sets of both boundary and internal degrees of freedom in the presence of a strong anisotropy of the diffusion tensor with constant or variable coefficients. A new definition of the boundary degrees of freedom is also proposed and tested.
