Our predictions for Genoa vs Cremonese
Match Prediction: Genoa 1-1 Cremonese
Genoa, despite a string of losses, may find some solace in their home draw against Parma. Their recent performances suggest a struggle to convert possession into goals, which could be pivotal against a Cremonese side that has shown resilience in drawing against strong teams like Atalanta and Udinese. Genoa's attacking line, led by Malinovskyi and Thorsby, will need to be more clinical to break down Cremonese's solid defensive structure.
Cremonese's recent form indicates a team capable of holding their own against top-tier opposition. Their ability to secure draws against Atalanta and Udinese showcases a disciplined approach that could frustrate Genoa's forwards. However, their away form, highlighted by the draw against Como, suggests they might not dominate possession but could exploit counter-attacking opportunities.
Form Guide & Team Overview
Genoa
Genoa's recent form has been concerning, with four losses in their last five matches. Their inability to secure a win, particularly at home against Lazio, points to a lack of confidence and effectiveness in front of goal. This trend could impact their performance against Cremonese, where they will need to be more assertive and capitalise on any scoring chances to turn their fortunes around.

Cremonese
