AS Roma take on the visitors Genoa in the round 21 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Friday, January 17th at Stadio Olimpico (Rome).
Roma under Mourinho won the title, and an international one at that, winning the Conference League. But Jose still failed to complete the task, and did not return the ambitious Wolves to the Champions League. De Rossi also failed, although he had a good start a year ago. On the other hand, the decision to fire him after the first failures of the new season was also an incomprehensible move by the project's management. And it only brought a new round of problems. And only when they fired Juric, bringing Ranieri back from retirement, did things start to work out. Even Claudio had little success at first, but in the winter the number of victories increased. The 2-0 in the derby with Lazio stands out. But they barely managed to snatch a draw with Bologna.

"Genoa" managed to improve under the current coach. "Griffins" failed after the change of coach - by the way, not without the "help" of Shevchenko. If he achieved success with the Ukrainian national team, then his return to Serie A, already as a coach, was a failure, and the club, albeit after Andriy's resignation, collapsed into the second division. There, another well-known former striker, Gilardino, revealed himself as a coach. Alberto, having arrived during the 2022/2023 season, to the stalled club, raised it to Calcio. And then he finished there among the strong middle peasants. But the team from Genoa came to the new season against the backdrop of serious personnel losses, one can recall the sale of Retega and the serious injury of Malinovsky. So in some ways, problems in the new championship were expected. But, on the other hand, when the new coach, Vieira, arrived, they immediately began to score points, albeit mainly in the format of draws. And they even managed to beat Parma.
Over the past 10 years, the Griffins have only once, in 2023, managed to win against the capital's grandee. But in September there was a 1-1 draw in Genoa. The Wolves are considered the favorites of the pair. But their advantage is not so global - the guests, who look good, will be able to win with a handicap of "+1 goal".
Prediction for the match: Genoa to win with +1.0 handicap.
