AS Roma vs Genoa PREVIEW & PREDICTION 16/12/2018

Sunday, at 19:30, AS Roma will receive the Genoa visit in a match for the 16th round in Serie A. The match will take place at the “Stadio Olimpico” in Rome.

Without winning six matches in all competitions, Rome tends to equate with the negative record of Sunday’s direct opponents. “The Griffins,” in turn, have not won ten matches and the relegation area is closer than it seems to Andrei Radu & Co. Obviously, regular draws in the face of opponents of similar value are not a solution, not even a moment for Genovese. Coming with offensive thoughts on “Olimpico”, Genoa will meet a team of Rome that does not accept any other than its favorable outcome by getting all three points. In the same way, we can note that “giallorossii” are indeed effective in home matches, scoring 18 goals in the 7 championship matches. At the same time, the defensive “grifoni” defaults in travel, with no fewer than 20 goals collected on foreign ground, so we can only wait for a score with many goals on Sunday night, on “Olimpico”.

In the last ten direct confrontations between the two bands, AS Roma was forced eight times, Genoa only once, while a single duel ended in a tie;

The previous success of the “Griffins” in front of the Capitol was held in May 2014, in a 1-0 “Luigi Ferraris”;

Four of the last five direct games ended with goals on both sides;

Probable teams:

AS Roma (4-2-3-1): Olsen- Florenzi, Manolas, Fazio, Kolarov- N’Zonzi, Cristante- Under, Zaniolo, Kluivert- Schick

Genoa (3-5-2): Radu-Biraschi, Romero, Zukanovic- Romulo, Hiljemark, Sandro, Bessa, Lazovic-Piatek, Kouame

Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a spectacular hostile run. Based mainly on Rome’s attacking force, its offensive appetite, but also the desperate need for points, while not ignoring the offensive potential of “Griffins”, we think we will see at least one goal in both halves of this confrontation.


PREDICTION: AS Roma to win @ 1.44
