Salernitana vs Genoa Prediction & Match Preview

• Salernitana lost six of the last eight fixtures in all competitions.
• Salernitana boast the worst defensive record in the Serie A.
• Albert Gudmundsson is Genoa’s top scorer with eight goals to his name so far in the season.

Genoa extended their unbeaten streak to five games last weekend, playing a goalless draw at home to Torino. It was the fourth draw during this run for I Rossoblu who looked great eight days ago against Il Toro, limiting them to zero shots on goal in the 90 minutes of action at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris.

Head coach Alberto Gilardino has done an excellent job on improving Genoa’s performances on both ends of the pitch, especially in defense as I Rossoblu did not concede two or more goals in any of the last eight league affairs.

Genoa will have a nice opportunity to keep their fine spell of form going on Sunday afternoon when they visit Stadio Arechi to face the rock-bottomed Salernitana in Gameweek No 21.

Salernitana got unlucky to concede a last-gasp goal and lose the match away at Napoli 1-2 as Amirr Rahmani found the 96th-minute winner for the defending champions on the occasion.

Salernitana now have six defeats in the last eight games in all competitions and they’ve allowed at least two goals in all but one of these affairs during the streak. Filippo Inzaghi’s men still own the division’s weakest defensive record with 40 goals shipped in 20 league affairs.

Recent Meetings

Genoa go into this on the back of two wins and a draw in the last three matches against Salernitana.

The run includes a 1-0 win in the return game in this season played in late-October last year at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris.

None of the previous four H2H affairs between these teams saw three or more goals scored.

Salernitana vs Genoa Prediction

Genoa enter this in a much better form and we can hardly look past the away win pick at the 2.15 odds.

We also like their top scorer Albert Gudmundsson to score anytime past the worst defensive line in the league at the odds of 3.50. The Icelandic striker already has eight goals in this term of Serie A.
