Prediction: 2-0
Genoa
Roma will be aiming to book their place in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals when they take on Genoa at Stadio Olimpico on Thursday evening. The Giallorossi showed character in their last league match, with the team coming from two goals behind to share the spoils with Milan, meaning that they are brimming with confidence ahead of the visit of Genoa. Georginio Wijnaldum remains in the recovery room, while both Nemanja Matic and Stephan El Shaarawy are pushing for recalls to the starting XI.
Meanwhile, the Rossoblu are fighting tooth and nail to return to the Serie A. Since Genoa’s main goal is to secure automatic promotion to the Italian top flight, we are tempted to put our money on Roma, who want to save the season by going all the way in the Coppa Italia. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Rome.
