Genoa vs Parma Prediction & Betting Tips (19 October)

Well stuck in the soft underbelly of the ranking last year, Genoa is off to a worrying start this season. Indeed, Patrick Vieira's men have still not pocketed a single victory, 2 draws and 4 defeats, and today occupy 19th place in Serie A. After taking a good point on the Como pitch in mid-September 1-1, they began a series of setbacks. Genoa lost in turn against Bologna 2-1, Lazio 0-3 and Napoli on the last day 2-1. Close to relegation during the previous financial year, Parma still risks having to work to avoid going downhill this season.

The teammates of Argentine striker Mateo Pellegrino are currently 14th in Serie A and are 2 points ahead of the red zone. Unable to win during the first four days with 2 draws and 2 defeats, they then gave themselves some breathing space by beating Torino at home 2-1. On the other hand, Parma carried out a bad operation just before the international break with a setback suffered in front of its fans against Lecce 0-1. 

Historically, Genoa has had the upper hand in this matchup, winning three of their last five encounters against Parma. The most recent clash in January saw Genoa edge out a 1-0 victory, courtesy of Frendrup’s second-half strike. Parma’s last win over Genoa dates back to February 2023 in Serie B, highlighting their struggle to impose themselves in this fixture. Both teams are separated by just a few points in the standings, making this a pivotal contest. Genoa’s home crowd could play a decisive role, especially with the match scheduled for a Sunday afternoon, a time when the Ferraris faithful are known to be vocally supportive.

Taking all factors into account—form, injuries, tactical setups, and historical trends—this match is poised to be tightly contested. Genoa’s defensive discipline and home advantage should give them the edge, while Parma’s sporadic attacking bursts could still pose a threat. Expect Genoa to control possession and create more chances, but Parma may find a way to respond, likely through Pellegrino or Cutrone. In the end, the prediction leans toward a narrow Genoa victory. The final scoreline? A hard-fought 2-1 win for the Grifone, keeping their upward momentum alive and deepening Parma’s early-season woes.
