The Giallorossi, like Genoa under Vierra, have improved significantly under Claudio Ranieri. At least the capital club has moved out of the relegation zone, where they almost fell under Ivan Juric. Roma currently sits in tenth place in the Italian league table, not far off the six-eight points they need to qualify for the second round of the European Cup.
In the previous round, the Romans played away to Bologna, and the match turned out to be one of the most interesting in the championship. The Yellow-Reds opened the scoring early in the second half through Alexis Salemakers but conceded twice in quick succession. It looked as if Roma would never return, but at 90+8, their opponents were awarded a penalty, which Artem Dovbik converted to make 2-2.
We would also like to remind you that Roma will have to start again in the Europa League next week. Their opponents for the seventh round are the Dutch AL Alkmaar. The match will be played away from home.
Genoa
Genoa has lost just one of its last ten matches in all competitions, but under Patrick Viera, it has lost one of its previous eight. Under the new coach, the Griffins have recorded three wins and four draws, with the only defeat coming home to leaders Napoli, where they were beaten 2-1.
In the last round, Genoa hosted Parma on their turf and managed to hold off a strong Parma attack before scoring the winner in the 65th minute. 1-0 - Morten Frendrup scored. The Genoa club is 11th in the Serie A table, five points above the relegation zone. Genoa is the league's most prolific side, scoring just 17 goals in 19 games.
H2H Meetings
In the first round, the rivals made peace in Genoa when Roma was led by Daniele De Rossi rather than Juric and Genoa by Alberto Gilardino. 1-1 - Coni De Winter's late strike canceled out Artem Dovbik's goal.
In the last ten head-to-head meetings, Roma won six to Genoa's. The other three meetings have ended in draws.

Expert Betting Tips
Genoa scored the fewest goals this season, but under Patrick Vierra, they also started to concede less. The Genoese have found the net in five of their last seven matches, preventing the likes of Milan and Udinese from scoring. Ranieri's Roma can also defend well and have kept three clean sheets in their home games against Parma, Lazio, and Portuguese side Braga in the Europa League. Given the efficiency of both teams' defenses, we're going to back the TU, both for Roma as a whole and individual players. Genoa has only conceded more than one goal twice in their last 11 matches.
