AS Roma vs Genoa Prediction & Betting tips
Italian mid-engine Genoa will visit the higher ranked AS Roma, which is in the race for the top places. What can we expect on Sunday afternoon at the Olimpico di Roma?
Roma:
AS Roma has a reasonable season, in which it is currently in fifth position in the Serie A. In the home games, the Romans were especially powerful, but in the away games, Paulo Fonseca’s team lost some points. For example, AS Roma is in a nice second place in the home league table, while it is ninth in the away rankings. The difference between home games and away games is remarkable, especially given the lack of an audience. Of the last five league games, two were won, two lost and one drawn. It registered its first home loss of the season against AC Milan.
Yet that defeat does not hurt too much, because at the same time Fonseca had a big boost. Not only was the last league match against Fiorentina won 2-1, but also in the Europa League it won both at home and away from the Portuguese Braga. Against AC Milan, the penny could even stand out on both sides, so you could say that AS Roma is in good shape.
Genoa:
The club from Genoa is visiting Rome and that is a special poster for one player. Ex-Eredivisionist Kevin Strootman visits his former employer, where he spent most of his career. He scored thirteen goals and nineteen assists in 131 games, but will now have to show it against AS Roma. Since the arrival of Strootman at Genoa, the club is doing quite well. In fact, of the past eight rounds in which he played, there were three wins, four draws and only lost to leader Inter.
Despite the fact that the team was in relegation short of the first sixteen rounds of play, Davide Ballardini’s team has now got the hang of it. Thanks to the strong series, the team rose to thirteenth place and it seems that it is slowly playing safe. Last round, Genoa took another point against fellow townsman Sampdoria by two ex-Roma players. Strootman prepared a goal, while Davide Zappacosta fired in the ball.
