Sassuolo vs Genoa Betting Tips and Predictions

A couple of games without a win for Sassuolo was ended with a win against Carpi last weekend and their chances of continental qualification are just about alive as a result. With seven games to go before the end of the season, Sassuolo are seven points behind Inter Milan, who occupy sixth place in the table and the last Europa League place. A home game against an out-of-form Genoa should provide a chance to get another three points on the board.

Top striker Leonardo Pavoletti is likely to miss the game and Genoa will find it hard to replace his 10 goals, while a run of four away defeats in a row has put the brakes on their charge up the title. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side have had a successful season, but it is in danger of petering out. With just one point separating Genoa in 10th and Empoli in 14th, Gasperini’s men could squeeze into the top half or they could finish just above the relegation zone.

Sassuolo have shown themselves to be a very good side this season, particularly in their surprise results against the likes of AC Milan, and a Genoa side that has been extremely inconsistent should provide little resistance. We are therefore tipping Sassuolo to win at Evens with bet365, while a 2-0 home win at 15/2 stands out too.
