Is a weak deleted domain still better than a new domain?

if I find a deleted domain with zero backlinks (or very few and weak), do I have an advantage in using that rather than a brand new domain?
Will it make it quicker to index and start ranking?

I ask because I'm having a lot of problems. I explain you.
I am finding several interesting deleted domains but often the domain names are similar to existing companies or associations, and sometimes the deleted domains are old domains of sites that are still active (sites that have changed domain to a very similar one).
Even though they are not trademarked, I asked and searched online, and people said to avoid using these domains.
The issue is that there are many deleted domains with very common names and as a result there are often companies and associations similar to these names (for example fish-friend.com).
If you have any advice on this too, you would really help me.

If the link profile is clean and domain is not penalized, yes, it will have advantage over brand new one.

I personally stay about form branded domains of major companies. They get claimed sooner or later.

I understand, but the companies I'm talking about are very little. I'm searching for foreign domains for european foreign language website.
take this for example (not my niche, not my problem xD)

Existing website for a small shop in a small city in italy
http://www.amicocavallo.com/ ("friend horse" in italian).

If you find a deleted domain like "amico-cavallo.net", would you use it? I personally would, without knowing better...
