Sassuolo - Genoa betting tips and odds

Sassuolo are easily the favourites in the match this Friday, but we wouldn’t call a Home Win bet at the odds of 2.20 safe, exactly. They are more likely to win than not, but Genoa may have a few tricks up their sleeve yet.

While Genoa may manage to claw their way to a win yet, it will be quite a struggle. As we can see thanks to the 3.40 betting odds for an away win, the odds are stacked against them – though it’s still manageable.

There will be no disappointment with Sassuolo following their previous Serie A fixture. Heading out of it as the underdogs, Sassuolo will be happy to have run out with a point (Udinese). They were trailing behind at the halftime mark and can look at themselves in the mirror with pride having managed to level the result.

Genoa barely managed to avoid a loss in their previous home game. Their opponents, Juventus, were seen as hard favourites in that matchup and snatched an early lead. Luckily, Genoa equalized, and the game ended 1:1.

With 6 concessions over the last 3 matches, Sassuolo will definitely have to make some improvements in their defensive line.

Genoa haven’t had a lot of luck playing as visitors lately. They’re on a streak of 4 away defeats right now, but they’re hoping to turn the tide around.

With just 4 points between them and the relegation zone, the hosts will want to be careful with rough matchups such as this one. We’re too early in the season to call their situation bad, but moving up the table will be a challenge.

Genoa are heading into round 17 with 4 points between them and the relegation zone. Moving to a safer table position will be difficult with Sassuolo in the way, though.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.90, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
