Genoa – Verona Soccer Prediction

The results of Sunday have made the salvation of Verona even more difficult. In particular, the victory of Crotone in Udine has increased to six points of difference from the fourth in the standings, which is why against Genoa the team coached by Pecchia can not be content with the draw and will have to seek victory.

Mission however difficult for a team that scored only one goal in the last six Serie A games (five losses) and that comes from a series of five consecutive losses away from home, always with at least two goals taken to the match, zero ones scored. The Genoa has won five of the last eight games played and with three points in this game would definitely close the accounts for salvation.

With Ballardini Genoa has improved especially in the defensive phase, suffered very few goals but meets a little ‘more difficulty in attack. If, however, will have available spaces to attack, as probable since Verona sooner or later will have to unbalance to seek victory, can hurt the counterattack with the speed of Pandev and Lapadula. The latter scored in the last round against Roma and appeared in excellent physical shape.
The latest news on the formations

The Geno Ballardini’s defending coach will have to do without Spolli and Izzo’s injuries: it is likely that Biraschi will be employed instead of El Yamiq, who played well enough in the midweek round against Roma. On the bands, Lazovic and Laxalt will return, at the ballot center between Rigoni and Medeiros. In attack with Pandev there will be one between Lapadula and Pandev, with the former who received a congratulations from Ballardini for the last games and a favorite part in the press conference.

On the other side, Pecchia will have to do without Kean in attack, an absence that is making itself felt. In defense there will also be the disqualified Ferrari, which is why Romulus could retreat its range with the transition from 4-4-2 of the last games to 4-3-3. In this case, the midfielders, without prejudice to the absence of Buchel, would be Calvano, Zuculini and Valoti, with Verde, Cerci and Matos to compose an attack without reference points, with players skilled in dribbling but not very incisive in the goal area.

The probable formations of Genoa-Verona

GENOA (3-5-2): Perin; Rossettini, Zukanovic, Biraschi; Lazovic, Bertolacci, Hiljemark, Medeiros, Laxalt; Lapadula, Pandev.
VERONA (4-3-3): Nicolas; Romulus, Caracciolo, Vukovic, Souprayen; Valoti, Zuculini, Calvano; Matos, Cerci, Fares.
