Genoa take on the visitors Inter in the round 18 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Friday, December 29th at Stadio Luigi Ferraris (Genoa).
Genoa received new investors in the penultimate year. However, the American owners initially made a series of unfortunate mistakes (including a clear miss with the bet on Andriy Shevchenko), resulting in a relegation to Serie B in 2022. Once there, the club, now operating at a lower level, had Gattuso as the interim coach - initially inexperienced, the former forward quickly proved himself. As a result, they promptly returned to Serie A, starting reasonably well. However, by winter, the results worsened: elimination from the cup (0-1 in Rome against Lazio), a winless streak in the league. Nevertheless, during this period, there was a 1-1 draw with Juventus. Later, they secured a determined victory with a score of 2-1 against Sassuolo.

Inter celebrated Christmas in 1st place and does not want to stop. The Nerazzurri, under Simone Inzaghi, performed well in both previous seasons. They couldn't retain the Scudetto won under Conte, and last season the coach was on the verge of dismissal a couple of times due to unsuccessful periods. However, things improved both there, winning the Cup and Super Cup twice, and reaching the final of the previous Champions League. Interestingly, everything has now turned around. Inter lost at home to Bologna in extra time, relinquishing the title of Coppa Italia holder. In the Champions League, they were surpassed in the group by Real Sociedad. Yes, in Milan, they remind everyone that it was the same last season, which did not prevent them from reaching the final. But now, in the Round of 16, they face an experienced opponent, Atletico Madrid. However, in Serie A, everything is going great: the team rose to the top and only strengthened its position. Predictably, they also managed to secure a grandmaster 2-0 against Lecce.
In February of last year, the Griffins held a goalless draw against the Milanese giants. But before that, there were 7 wins for the Nerazzurri. There is no reason to believe that Inter will stumble. Let's take a risk and bet that they will win here too.
Prediction for the match: Inter to win.
