PREVIEW
Roma are short priced favourites to beat Genoa at the Stadio Olimpico tonight and they should have plenty of motivation to ensure that odds of 1.5 on BETDAQ about the home win are justified.
The Giallorossi watched their principle rivals for the end of season European places drop points at the weekend as Inter were held at the San Siro by Atalanta and Udinese versus Napoli ended in a 2-2 draw. Catania managed a victory that took them to seventh, level on points with Roma in sixth, but they beat Lazio, meaning that if Luis Enrique’s men triumph tonight then they will close to within four points of their city rivals in third and a Champions League place.
Finding consistency has been Roma’s problem this campaign – only once have they put together a winning stretch of more than two games – but they are stronger at home, where they have taken 24 of their 41 points so far, and should have too much for Genoa.
The visitors go into the match in 14th place thanks mostly to their poor road form. They have won two, drawn two and lost nine times on their travels. One of those victories came at the Stadio Olimpico, against Lazio, however, that was all the way back in September and the other was at Siena in December. A draw at relegation-threatened Lecce on their last away game came after five straight reverses.
Roma’s last two wins have come by the 1-0 final score and a bet on the same scoreline could be worth a punt at 9.4. Genoa have failed to find the net in four of their last six Serie A games and have lost five in a row at Roma.
RECOMMENDATION: (1-10 points)
Roma to win 1-0 at around 9.4: 1.5 points
Sunday’s Return: +3.08 points
MARCH RETURN TO DATE: +22.18
