ROMA VS GENOA PREDICTION 12/01/2023

Date: 12/01/2023

  • Competition: Coppa Italia

  • KO: 20:00 GMT / 21:00 CET

  • Venue: Stadio Olimpico (Roma)

Following a remarkable fight-back at Milan, Roma look to continue their Coppa Italia run as they host Serie B side Genoa at the Stadio Olimpico. 

Outplayed for much of the 90 minutes, Jose Mourinho's side somehow claimed a point at the San Siro with late goals from Tammy Abraham and Roger Ibanez enough to secure an unlikely 2:2 draw.

Now back on home soil, Roma will be expected to take care of business against a Genoa side currently third in Italy´s second tier.

Roma vs Genoa Betting Tips: Roma and under 3.5 goals

Roma have been something of a mixed bag this season, and their recent form has been disappointing, having lost three of their last six - all by the same 1:0 scoreline - against Atalanta, Napoli and Lazio.

Eliminated by Inter in last year's edition of this Series Soccer Tips competition, Roma suffered a shock loss to Spezia in their last home Coppa Italia tie back in 2021. 

Visiting Genoa arrives in Rome, having picked up form lately with three wins and a draw from their last four league matches. The Genoans had failed to win any of their previous five league outings. 

On the road, Genoa ended a four-game winless streak with a victory at Bari last time out however, a trip to Rome very much represents a tougher scale of task for Alberto Gillardino´s side. 

Indeed, while Genoa did claim a draw in two of their three previous away soccer tips tomorrow games against Roma, their record in this fixture is terrible, having lost each of the previous 14 since 1994. 

Ultimately, it´s hard to see past a home victory here but given their lacklustre form, it probably won´t be a high-scoring or dominant win for the hosts. As such, the under 3.5 goal line should hold with a home victory.
