The 17th day ends with Monday Night at the Olimpico where Daniele returns as an “enemy”: in his career 616 appearances for Roma

The seventeenth matchday of Serie A ends with the great challenge of the heart scheduled at the Olimpico: after 616 matches with the Giallorossi shirt, Daniele De Rossi returns to his stadium and his city as coach of the opposing team. Let’s find out the prediction and odds for Roma-Genoa scheduled for Monday 29 December at 8.45pm.

ROME-GENOA PREDICTION ODDS

Daniele De Rossi’s challenge to his past will be truly very particular: he will return to Rome, celebrated by a sold-out stadium, and will have to try to get the team back on track after two consecutive knockouts with Inter and Atalanta. The latest defeat really hurt the Ligurians because it came during injury time from a corner: De Rossi, however, raised Genoa after replacing Vieira on the rossoblù bench. The 14 points scored before this match represent a good basis for building a path to salvation.

It is obvious that Genoa will close in on their own half of the field trying to hit on the counterattack: the hypothesis of the 1X double chance for the bookies of the main betting sites is very probable given that it is on the board at 1.13 on Starcasinò, 1.12 on Admiralbet, 1.11 on Vincitu and 1.10 on Snai. And Snai itself offers an increased fee for this event only for new members on the expected outcome which rises to 8.00.

GASPERINI’S DEFENSE

Roma absolutely needs a victory to keep up with the pace of the top teams in the table and to stay in the Champions League zone. Three defeats in the last four matchdays have slowed down Gasperini’s progress: the stops against Napoli, Cagliari and Juventus, interspersed with the home success against Como, have been penalizing the progress of the Giallorossi, who are paying for the poor performance of the two centre-forwards in the squad, Ferguson and Dovbyk. But Roma still have the strongest defense in the championship given that they have only conceded 10 goals: Gasperini will focus on the strength of their defensive department while waiting for a new striker. And for this reason against Genoa we also like the NoGoal solution for this match. Hypothesis which is on the board at 1.60 on Eurobet and Betflag, at 1.57 on Netwin and at 1.55 on William Hill.

DYBALA SCORER

Roma seems to have now closed the purchase of Zirkzee from Manchester United, formerly of Bologna. But while waiting for the Dutchman’s arrival, here is Dybala’s solution in the role of atypical center forward, ready to dialogue but also to finish on goal with his deadly left foot. Looking for Roma-Genoa predictions and odds, a goal by the Argentine against De Rossi’s Genoa is at odds of 2.81 on Vincitu, 2.80 on Starcasinò, 2.70 on Snai and 2.50 on Eurobet.
