Lille, Siena and the End of a 70 Year Drought
By: patcook |With a last gasp goal Genoa rescued 3 points against Lille and their Europa League aspirations. A Last gasp goal against Siena secured a win in the Serie A and insured Genoa stay within touching distance of the top 4.
It continues a mini revival that has seen Genoa go on a 3-1-0 streak after going 1-1-6 in their previous eight. The four game streak also ended a 70 year drought for the Grifoni. Read the rest of this entry »

Catch Up
By: patcook |In the last week and a half Genoa were humiliated by Lille and then lost to Cagliari, before an important win against Fiorentina and a draw against Palermo.

Genoa V Udinese
By: patcook |Genoa need to win this one. They face 3 away games in a row before hosting Inter.
Genoa’s home form has been fantastic and the draw with Juventus (totally deserved btw, Juve should feel lucky to get a point ;p) shows that they can compete with anyone at home. Away however, is a different story.
Udinese are coming off a win against Milan and will be buzzing with confidence and keen to prove themselves against another of the clubs tipped to challenge for the Champions League this season.
My prediction: Genoa 3-2 Udinese
