Sassuolo vs Genoa Prediction & Betting Tips (3 November)

Sassuolo return to the Mapei Stadium with renewed confidence after a gritty 2-1 win over Cagliari, a result that lifted them to 10th in the Serie A standings. Under the guidance of Fabio Grosso, the Neroverdi have shown flashes of attacking flair, with Andrea Pinamonti leading the line effectively. Armand Laurienté and Domenico Berardi continue to be creative sparks, combining for goals and assists in recent outings. Sassuolo’s ability to generate chances—15 shots in their last match—suggests they’re finding rhythm at a crucial point in the season.

Genoa, on the other hand, are languishing at the bottom of the table with just three points from nine matches. Their recent 2-0 home defeat to Cremonese highlighted ongoing struggles in both attack and defense. Despite outshooting their opponents, Genoa failed to convert, a recurring theme in their campaign. Coach Alberto Gilardino faces mounting pressure as his side remains winless, and the lack of goals from key players like Ruslan Malinovskyi and Junior Messias is a growing concern.



In terms of squad dynamics, Sassuolo appear more settled, with a consistent starting eleven and a clear attacking identity. Their midfield, anchored by Kristian Thorstvedt and bolstered by the energy of Alieu Fadera, has been instrumental in linking defense to attack. Genoa’s midfield, meanwhile, has struggled to impose itself, with Morten Thorsby and Milan Badelj often overrun. Injuries and inconsistency have forced Gilardino to shuffle his lineup frequently, disrupting any chance of cohesion.

Given the current form and home advantage, Sassuolo are poised to edge this encounter. Genoa’s defensive frailties and lack of cutting edge up front make them vulnerable, especially against a Sassuolo side that thrives on quick transitions. Expect a competitive match, but the hosts should have just enough to secure a narrow 2-1 victory, continuing their climb up the table while deepening Genoa’s woes.
