Sassuolo hosts Genoa in round 20 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Thursday, January 6th at Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore (Reggio Emilia)
Sassuolo didn’t lose in six rounds in a row. However, the team was unlucky in the last match. The Black-Greens lost to the footballers of Bologna. The Greyhounds scored three unanswered goals against Sassuolo, and the hosts conceded the final goal in the ninety-fourth minute. Thus, the Black-Greens couldn’t aggrieve the opponents’ goalkeeper for the third time in the current season. Before that, the Black-Greens scored from one to three goals in fourteen rounds in a row. After the last defeat, the goal difference has become negative and amounts to minus one. Now Sassuolo is in 13th place in the standings and is still very far from the result of the previous season.

In round 19, Genoa gained their third goalless draw in the current season (eight draws in total). Andriy Shevchenko’s men hosted Atalanta. Neither the Griffins nor the Black-Blues managed to replenish their piggy banks with goals scored, but they also did not increase the number of conceded goals. One point earned didn’t help Genoa to get out of the relegation zone. The Griffins remained in eighteenth place in the standings. Now they have eleven points and the same goal difference of minus eighteen. Only two teams have gained only one victory in the current Serie A draw — Genoa and Cagliari.
Genoa footballers will be the visitors of the upcoming game. We may note that they show better production at their native stadium, so the fight will be serious. Yes, the Griffins will probably be able to upset the goalkeeper of Sassuolo, but no more. Three points are likely to go to the Black-Greens. Alessio Dionisi's charges keep their opponent at a decent distance of five lines in the standings and thirteen points. In addition, they surpass the men of Andriy Shevchenko in terms of victories.
Prediction for the match: Sassuolo to win
