Genoa welcome Sassuolo in Serie A, with the hosts looking to distance themselves from the relegation battle while the visitors sit comfortably in mid-table.
Prediction: Double Chance 1X
Genoa’s motivation and strong head-to-head record suggest the hosts can avoid defeat.
Sassuolo remain relatively safe in mid-table and are unlikely to experience major changes in their position before the end of the season. Their performances have been inconsistent, alternating between strong and weaker displays, although the recent victory over Cagliari showed they still possess attacking quality. With limited pressure on their shoulders, Sassuolo may approach this match with a balanced but not overly aggressive mindset.
Genoa, meanwhile, are still above the relegation zone but two consecutive league defeats have increased the pressure. Another poor result could pull them back into the survival battle, making this a crucial home fixture. Genoa also hold a psychological advantage, having won the last three meetings against Sassuolo, all of which were relatively open and competitive matches. With greater urgency and home support, Genoa are expected to push for at least a point.
