A Sports Betting Pick by Gooner
Football: Italy, Serie A
Saturday 10th January 2009 - Kickoff 17:00
Genoa (6th - Home : 6-2-0 17:6)
Genoa had a perfect home record, befroe a pair of 1-1 draws in their last two matches here ruined that.
However, the home slump has been matched by a pair of 1-0 away wins at Sampdoria and Chievo showing that the Giffoni are still finding ways to win matches.
Genoa Team News :
The biggest absentee may be Diego Milito (12 goals) who is suffering from a muscular injury and is currently listed as doubtful. Raffaele Palladino (1 goal) is also injured.
Torino (17th - Away : 0-2-6 6:15)
Torino beat Napoli 1-0 at home just before the winter break - a result that was desperately needed after losing three games in a row.
Torino Team News :
Paolo Zanetti will be out and Simone Barone should step in to replace him. Angelo Ogbonna, Matteo Rubin and Elvis Abbruscato complete the Granata’s injury list.
Probable teams
Rubinho;
Biava, Ferrari, Bocchetti;
M.Rossi, T.Motta, Juric, Criscito;
Jankovic, Olivera, Gasbarroni
Torino :
Sereni;
Di Loreto, Natali, Pratali, Pisano;
Abate, Dzemaili, Barone, Rosina;
R.Bianchi, Amoruso
THE VERDICT
The probably absence of Genoa's top goalscorer Diego Milito explains the bigger price than expected on the home side.
Still I think that Genoa are the better side, and they are well worth a shot at the best prices.
