Spal vs Genoa Prediction & Betting tips
Round 13 of Serie A will be rounded off on Monday night with the duel of the two children’s children Spal Ferrara and Genoa. If it goes by the odds of bookmakers, we expect a balanced match of the two teams. Recently, neither the Biancazzurri from Ferrara nor the Rossoblu from Genoa really found in the victory track.
In twelve games, both teams have not achieved double-digit points yield, which is why the placement in the lower third of the table is also less surprising. Spal Ferrara may escape on Monday night with a home win possibly from the table cellar.
The weakest defense is a guest on the weakest offensive. The Biancazzurri from Ferrara continues to build on the coach Leonardo Semplici despite form crisis. But slowly the trainer of SPAL moves on thin ice.
A home win on Monday evening would significantly improve the situation in the table penultimate, especially since there is a chance to leave a relegation place for the time being. We think the table penultimate finds out of the crisis, and would therefore recommend a Spal Ferrara against Genoa forecast on the home team.
Spal Ferrara:
Three years ago, SPAL Ferrara made it to the top Italian league for the first time in 49 years. Right in the first season after the rise of the Biancazzurri fought consistently for the league and could conceivably narrowly avoid the transition to the second division. In comparison, it was much better in the last season.
Spal Ferrara fixed early on the league, so had to worry about the end of the season for points. Three defeats on the last three matchdays were therefore to cope. This season, the team around head coach Leonardo Semplici put on a catastrophic start to the season and meanwhile occupies the penultimate place in the table.
Only seven goals have been scored so far. Ferrari’s Biancazzurri are the weakest offensive in Serie A. Since winning the home race over Parma, Spal Ferrara has not won a single league game. The table penultimate has been without victory for five games. In the last week of the away game against Udinese there was a point win after scoreless draw.
Bitter was above all the most recent home game against third-placed neighbors Sampdoria. The Biancazzurri conceded in the last stoppage time a Joker strike by new substitute Caprari and thus gave away a well-deserved point win.
Seven of the previous nine points were booked at home. In this calendar year, the Biancazzurri showed quite strong performances in front of home crowd and won against teams like Roma, Lazio and also record champions Juventus Turin. Therefore, the charges of Semplici are not to be underestimated.
The key player in the Biancazzurri squad is undoubtedly Andrea Petagna. The striker of SPAL was firmly committed in the summer for just under twelve million euros after successful lending.
After the goal-getter of SPAL last took place on the bench, can be expected on Monday evening again with a start-up assignment. Cionek, Tomovic, D’Alessandro and Fares are missing.
Genoa:
Last season, Genoa managed to narrowly avoid relegation. With 38 points scored the Rossoblu from Genoa past the descent. Changes were to be introduced in the summer, but the activities on the transfer market remained largely manageable. Although many top performers were sold, but at the same time borrowed again for another season.
In the summer, Aurelio Andreazzoli also brought a new instructor to Genoa. In the season before Andreazzoli could not prevent the relegation with Empoli FC. His losing streak continued after a solid start but continued. The Rossoblu then lost five of six games. After the 1: 5 debacle against Parma, the collaboration with Andreazzoli was finally ended.
Thiago Motta was hired as successor only a few days later. The former Italian international coached for the first time in his manageable coaching career a professional team. The momentum after the change of coach was well exploited with a 3-1 home win over Brescia. Since then Genoa won no more games.
Before the international break, there was a point win in stumbling Napoli. If Genoa is without a win this matchday and possibly even loses, the team of Motta slips to a relegation place. But there is not much that speaks in favor of a victory for Rossoblu in Ferrara.
Genoa is the worst defensive Serie A with 26 goals. In addition, the Rossoblu behind Spal Ferrara is one of the weakest away teams in the league. Genoa continues the away weakness of the last season. In foreign lands, the Rossoblu did not win any of the last 15 Serie A games seasonally.
Motta will have to do without the injured Christian Kouamé on Monday night. Further failures are not to be complained to the guests from Genoa.
