Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Atalanta will look to make amends for a heavy 4-1 loss to Roma when they take on Genoa at Stadio Luigi Ferraris on Tuesday evening. Atalanta want to retain their spot in top four, and it seems as if they will not have a better chance than this to get back on course. Both Malinovsky and Miranchuk should be recalled to the starting XI, while Gosens is out of contention with injury.
The Rossoblu, on the other hand, are not enjoying a season to remember, with the team collecting only ten points in total to date. Considering that Genoa extended their losing run to four games at Stadio Olimpico on Friday, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visitors. All Cassata, Fares, Rovella, and Caicedo are sidelined with injuries for the home team.
