Torino vs Genoa Prediction & Betting tips
Six game days are still to be completed by the end of the season. Would be over now, but of course neither Turin nor Genoa would mind. Both teams are currently keeping the bottom line and occupying places 16 and 17 in the Serie A table.
In the run-up to the game between Turin FC and Genoa, the odds of the bookmakers in the direction of the home side deflect, as the betting base odds comparison shows. The Granata could make a huge step towards relegation with a home three at four points ahead of the Ligurians.
Historically, there is not much to be said against the bulls, who have lost none of the last six duels with the Rossoblu. At home in Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino there have been no home defeats against the Ligurians for seven league games.
Turin FC:
Last summer, Turin FC landed on a respectable seventh place in the table and was even allowed to participate in the qualifying rounds for the Europa League. In the current season, however, the worm is in the Granata, who therefore separated from their coach in February.
Moreno Longo was supposed to get the Kicker from Piedmont back on track. His meager yield so far: only seven points from ten league games.
Instead of rehabilitating, the bulls are now stuck in a relegation battle, although the recent home record is encouraging. All seven points under Moreno Longo were scored in the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino – moreover, all since the resumption of league operations.
Overall, the Granata occupy eleventh place in the Serie A home table and scored 21 of their 34 points in the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino.
The fact that the home record against Genoa CFC pursuers is so strong also encourages. None of the last seven home games in Serie A have lost the Granata to the Ligurians. And the draw would be enough to leave the gap at four points.
All the better that Moreno Longo currently only has to do without Daniele Baselli, who can only realistically be on the pitch again in 2021 after cruciate ligament rupture. The rest of the squad is now fully available.
Genoa:
The nine-time Italian champion Genoa CFC has been part of Serie A for 13 years. While the Rossoblu only just held the class last summer as 17th in the final table, everything now points to a close fight until the last matchday.
Although the Ligurians finally broke the first three since Re-Start at 2-0 over Spal Ferrara last Sunday, they were also under pressure due to Lecce’s surprising victory over Lazio Rome.
Six matchdays before the end of the season, Genoa CFC is again just above the bottom line, but as 17th is only one point ahead of US Lecce. It is all the more groundbreaking to see the current week in which the next final will follow the six-point game against Turin.
On Sunday, the kickers from Liguria, also known as “Grifone” because of the striking grip on the club crest, receive their main pursuer US Lecce in the Stadio Luigi Ferraris. A victory is mandatory at the latest.
Before that, however, it is important to take something countable with you in this away game in Piedmont.
However, the aforementioned dry spell of seven away games in Turin without victory speaks against it. In addition, Genoa could only win two of the 16 games in the distance in Serie A league operations.
The fact that at Turin FC against Genoa a tip for a point win by the Grifone is not under the very best star is also due to the personnel situation. Coach Davide Nicola is missing five injured players in this first of two finals.
