Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Buoyed by a 2-1 win over Lazio, Fiorentina will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Genoa in the Serie A round 23. The Viola did well to put an end to their six-game winless run and a triumph over Genoa could see them climb to the Champions League berth. Midfielder Yacine Adli, who scored the opener against Lazio, misses out through suspension, while both Cataldi and Colpani are major doubts.
Meanwhile, the Rossoblu recorded a very important win over Monza at the weekend, with the team moving closer to top ten in the standings. Genoa, though, are not regarded as good travellers and given Fiorentina’s fine performance against the Biancocelesti, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Raffaele Palladino’s troops. All Mattia Bani, Ruslan Malinovskyi, and Caleb Ekwoah Ahanor miss out with injuries for the away team.
