Genoa desperately need points on Saturday, Oct 17 at 8:45 PM in the Serie A. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

AS Roma come into this fixture in red-hot form (4W from last 5). Genoa travel struggling badly (0W 4L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

History strongly favours AS Roma here — they've won 6 of 10 previous meetings against Genoa, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in AS Roma won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: AS Roma look the stronger side on current evidence. Expect them to control proceedings at home, though Genoa will make it uncomfortable. AS Roma to win.
