Match Overview
Genoa take on Inter Milan in a match in the Serie A at the Stadio Luigi Ferrario on 29 December. The visiting side will fancy themselves against their lesser-known opponents, but they will not have it very easy. Inter's midfield can be broken down if Genoa choose to play out from the back. It remains to be seen how well their plans are executed.
Key Highlights
One must not forget that Genoa, despite their misgivings, are ranked 12th in goals scored per match (1 goal). What will worry them deeply is the fact that they haven't kept a clean sheet in 5 matches. What that has directly resulted in is that they haven't won a match in their last 5 attempts to do so. Genoa's inability to keep a clean sheet is directly related to them not winning games.
Injury Report
While Junior Messias is one of the very few injured players in the Genoa lineup, Juan Cuadrado and Denzel Dumfries have been ruled out of this game for Inter Milan.
Prediction
At the time of writing, Inter Milan are ranked right at the top of the league table with 41 points to their name. Genoa, for their part, are perched upon the 14th position of the same standings with 16 points inside their kitty. The gulf in points between the teams is saying something. Inter appear to be the favourites to win this game, and we expect them to do so.
