Football, Italy, Serie A: Genoa vs AS Roma

Finally the waiting has an end: The first round of Serie A will be played this weekend, and on sunday evening (7:45 p.m.) there´s the duel between two teams who have already played their play off games for the new Europa League this week: Genoa vs Roma.

For Genoa it was a great day as it was their return to Europe after a very long time, and you could say it was a success, at leat in part: they bet the danish team Odense by 3-1, which is not a bad result, but the late goal scored by the danish has reopened the game. Nevertheless the "rossoblu" have made quite a good debut to Europe, above all thanks to the argentinian player Lucho Figueroa who has scored two goals. Last season Genoa had sent him back to Argentina because they didn't want him anymore...
Anyway the Genoa players and their coach Gasperini can be satisfied after this game, and the same goes for AS Roma, at least if you look at the result: 3-3 in Kosice is quite a good base for the return game, but the fact is that Roma was already leading by 3-1 and in the end all they got was a draw that still leaves some theoretical chances to Kosice.
Certainly at the Stadio Marassi the Roma players will have to play with more concentration, otherwise they will not have any chances against the red-and-blue who seem to be in excellent form this season...

In my opinion Totti and his teammates won't allow themselves the errors they made agaiinst Kosice, but still they will lose against Genoa who are very strong at home.

My tip is 1, home victory for Genoa. The best odd is on
