Neither team could manage anything else In the end, SPAL couldn’t muster any offence and Genoa ran away with the shutout win. Genoa is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Last season Roma won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Genoa has been fortunate! In the last five matches, both Coda and Albert Guðmundsson are on scoring streaks. They have each scored 4 goals for Genoa and look to continue their dominance.. Tammy Abraham and Nemanja Matić are the top scorers for Roma in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
