Crotone vs Genoa
Italian Serie A.
Date: Sunday, 19 November 2017
Kick-Off: 11:30 UK,
Venue: Stadio Ezio Scida (Crotone).

Crotone will hope to make it three wins on the spin as they aim to continue their mini-revival at struggling Genoa’s expense on Sunday afternoon.

The Squali barely avoided the drop last season, and have found things quite difficult in their sophomore term. However, they have now won their last two games, which has put some distance between them and the teams hoping to avoid relegation. Genoa, by contrast, have lost three in a row and are among the teams desperate to escape the drop.

In yet another bid to turn things around, the Grifone have sacked Ivan Juric for the second time. Davide Ballardini has been brought back for yet another spell, and having previously saved Genoa from relegation, the club is desperately hoping he can work his magic yet again.

Although six points divide the two sides, this is one of those matches that will prove decisive for each team. However, Crotone don’t have the best record against Genoa, and the Grifone, now under the tutelage of a new coach will be hoping to cause the Squali some problems as they aim to claw their way up the table.

Crotone vs Genoa: Prediction

Crotone seem to have started to find their stride after a difficult start, and taking on Genoa is another fixture that will certainly suit the Squali just fine. However, the Grifone will be eager to make an impression under a new coach and could certainly pose a tricky test for the hosts in this crunch clash.
