-----------------------------

Genoa will host Sassuolo at Stadio Luigi Ferraris as they look to move further away from the relegation zone after back-to-back defeats. Meanwhile, Sassuolo arrive with renewed confidence following their recent win and aim to build momentum in this encounter.

Team Analysis:

Genoa, under Daniele De Rossi, have moved up to 14th but still remain under pressure after a mixed run of results and a recent dip in form. Sassuolo, meanwhile, sit comfortably mid-table in their return to Serie A under Fabio Grosso, though their poor away record could make this a difficult test.

Player Situation:

Genoa will be without several players including Brooke Norton-Cuffy and Maxwell Cornet due to injury, forcing changes in their wide positions and midfield setup. Sassuolo also face defensive absences, though they can still rely on experienced figures like Nemanja Matic to help stabilize the team in midfield.

Result Prediction:

Genoa may have struggled in recent matches overall, but their strong home form gives them confidence heading into this weekend's clash. Sassuolo sit more comfortably in the table, yet they will need to be at their best to handle a Genoa side still fighting to avoid relegation pressure.

Predicted Result: Genoa 2-1 Sassuolo.
