Frosinone vs Genoa Predictions

Genoa have made a solid start to the new season, and relegation concerns seem to be a thing of the past for them. A tricky start last term put them in trouble, but this season they’re putting distance between themselves and the bottom three. Frosinone are likely to find themselves towards the bottom of the table this term, after making a slow start. Can the Grifone take advantage of the newly promoted side’s poor form here, or will the visitors drop points in this trip?

Frosinone are second from bottom in the table, and they’re yet to score this term. Midweek brought a humbling 4-0 defeat at a Roma side who were struggling to get any kind of form this term. While the hosts are hoping to establish themselves in the top flight with some big changes on and off the pitch, so far they look out of their depth in the top flight, and they’re going to be worried about a clash with an impressive Genoa side.

The visitors are up in eighth after their midweek win over Chievo. They’ve showed some impressive cutting edge against the lower ranked sides in Serie A so far, and we think that will work for them in this encounter. While Genoa aren’t entirely solid at the back, they’ve shown themselves capable of shutting down struggling sides. That should pay off for them in this meeting with a side who are yet to score.

Genoa’s hopes here are boosted by their in-form forward, Krzysztof Piątek. The striker has been breaking records since making the switch from his native Poland to Serie A. Cristiano Ronaldo may have moved to Italy this summer, but it’s the Polish forward who leads the way in the scoring charts. He has six goals in five league games, making him the top scorer. He’s already hit double figures for the season, and we see another goal in September for Piątek. We’re backing him to score any time this weekend, given his brilliant start.

The forward should fire Genoa to a victory here. The visitors seem like good value ahead of a clash with a team who have lost five of their six top flight games this term. We think the visitors will have too much class, and Frosinone will come up short again. An away win is our tip in this clash, along with Piątek grabbing a goal once again.
