Frosinone have been slipping down the Serie A table for a while, and they return from the international break in the relegation zone, with nine games to go. This weekend, in their survival quest, they travel away from home to face Genoa, a side just below mid table, with no relegation worries and very little to play for until the end of the season.
Genoa Form GuideGenoa are not doing anything out of the ordinary right now, they're winning a few points here and there, but are very much playing like a team that has little to play for, which is their exact situation. But they do come here without a win from their last three games before the break, so will be looking to get a win on the board here.
In their final game before the break, they drew 0-0 away from home against Juventus, a good point to pick up against one of the top sides. Defeats to Monza and Inter Milan came before that, but both by just one goal, and both are decent sides, so it's not been too bad recently, despite just one point from three games.
Frosinone Form GuideIn 18th, Frosinone are in the bottom three of the league, but the good news for them is that they are just one point from safety. On top of that, five teams are within four points of them, so there's plenty to chase down, if they are to stay in the Italian top flight for another season.
But the bad news is they come here on a run of eight games without a win, and they've lost six of those, with two draws. They have lost their last two games, a 3-2 home defeat to Lazio, and before that, a 1-09 loss at Sassuolo, a side who are in the relegation battle with them, so that was a really poor day.
Match PredictionFrosinone need every point they can get their hands on, but I don't think they will take anything from this game. I am backing Genoa to come out on top here and take all three points from the game.
