Sassuolo vs Genoa Prediction & Match Preview

Sassuolo and Genoa are lock on 16 points going into their Matchday No 17 encounter on Friday evening at MAPEI Stadium – Citta del Tricolore.

I Neroverdi won just one of the last ten league outings and they will be desperate to return to winning ways here against one of the worst travelers in the division.

Sassuolo did manage to avoid a defeat last weekend at Udinese thanks to two second-half penalties, both successfully converted by the team’s main star Domenico Berardi.

Alessio Dionisi’s men have once again shown a decent attacking performance. Nevertheless, the problems for the Italian manager appear at the back as his team tend to leak in too many chances and goals these days.

Each of the last six matches Sassuolo played in the league saw the Over 2.5 goals FT & Both Teams To Score option coming in.

This trend might be stopped here against Genoa who have been struggling for goals throughout the whole season, especially in recent weeks.

That said, Genoa did hold title chasers Juventus to a 1-1 stalemate last weekend at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris courtesy of an Albert Gudmundsson equalizer in the second half.

Alberto Gilardino’s troops are still winless in five consecutive games and they’ve found the back of the net just once in the previous three matches in the process.

Latest Meetings

Sassuolo will go into this on the back of three victories and two draws in the previous five meetings with Genoa.

Sassuolo own a great home record with six wins, two draws, and one defeat in the last nine outings against I Rossoblu at MAPEI Stadium – Citta del Tricolore.

Both teams were on target in each of the previous four H2H games.

The Verdict

Genoa have been one of the worst travelers in the league with six losses in eight away outings in this term of Serie A.

Taking tradition into consideration, we will back Sassuolo to win at the 2.15 odds. The value pick would be Domenico Berardi to score anytime for the hosts at the 3.40 odds, following his brace at Udinese last weekend.
