Genoa – Juventus

An interesting Serie A Sunday match up between a traditional mid-table team with a genius coach, Genoa, and a wounded lion, current champions Juventus.

Genoa sold a lot of players. Let’s name a few: Roncaglia to Fiorentina. Niang, end of loan. Iago Falque to AS Roma. They also lost Kucka and Bertollaci, key players in midfield. Tino Costa, one of the ones who should give stability in midfield, is out. Genoa beat Juve last year, with 1-0. And 2 seasons ago, they also pushed Juve close. They missed a penalty at 0-0 and then Pirlo scored from a free kick to give Juventus a 1-0 win, in the last minutes of the game. But those, of course, were different times.

Juventus now looks different and I like it. There is more energy, the young players have more playing time and they are fully enjoying it. Pirlo and Vidal had nothing more to offer Juventus, but Tevez is one player I will miss.

I said a lot about the general situation of the two teams, but not enough about the game. Well, besides the obvious quality difference i also like the motivation Juve has, sitting with just 1 pt after 3 rounds and the confidence boost they got from beating City at Etihad in the Champions League, 2-1.

This makes me think we have betting value in this match. Juventus to win is the pick for me, usual 8 unit flat stake on the tip. Good Luck!
