Roma will be looking to extend they winning streak to four matches across all competitions on the bounce when they take on a struggling Genoa at the Stadio Olimpico in an important Serie A fixture on Saturday evening with kickoff at 17:00.
Jose Mourinho’s Roma experienced a patchy spell since the start of this season, but they have recently began to appear steady evidenced in their last three consecutive wins across all competitions, where they scored eight goals while conceding three in the process.
A run of 13 points from their last seven Serie A matches has seen them climb to sixth in the table with 38 points collected from 23 games and now remain just five off the precious Champions League spots.
Therefore, the Giallorossi will be looking to continue their pursuit of a place in the top four, when they come up against a side they have beaten in their last four consecutive matches scoring nine goals while conceding just three.
Meanwhile Genoa will be still be looking for their second win of the season in their 24th ask. Indeed Genoa have been in shambles this season with the club recording just one win in their 23 league matches while picking up 10 draws and 12 defeats to collect 13 points which have them sitting just a place and three points off the root of the table and having played one more match.
They head into the match in a poor form having won in none of their last 20 consecutive matches, which is currently the worst run in all of Europe’s top five leagues and we don’t just see things changing for this side in the Saturday’s clash.
