Napoli has clinched a top four finish in Serie A, which means it will qualify for next season’s UEFA Champions League. That will mark a return to the competition after it missed out on it over the last two campaigns.
It’s not impossible for Napoli to do well enough over the final two matches to catch Inter Milan for second in Serie A, though it’s unlikely, as it would need two wins and for Inter to not earn any points.
Napoli is coming off of a 1-0 win over Torino, with Fabián Ruiz scoring the lone goal of the match.
Predicted Napoli starting XI: Rui, Koulibaly, Rrahmani, Di Lorenzo, Ruiz, Anguissa, Insigne, Mertens, Lozano, Osimhen; Ospina
| Position | Genoa roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Semper, Marchetti, Vodisek, Sirigu |
| Defenders | Vanheusden, Criscito, Masiello, Bani, Vasquez, Calafiori, Czyborra, Ghiglione, Hefti, Cambiaso, Maksimovic, Ostigard |
| Midfielders | Amiri, Melegoni, Gudmundsson, Sturaro, Frendrup, Hernani, Badelj, Rovella, Portanova, Galdames |
| Forwards | Piccoli, Ekuban, Destro, Buksa, Yeboah, Kallon |
Genoa’s quest to avoid relegation took a big step forward in its last match, when a pair of late goals—including a stoppage time penalty kick from Domencio Criscito—gave the team an upset 2-1 win over Juventus.
The team is just two points behind 17th place Salernitana now. Salernitana has won three of its last five matches though, so it should still be considered the favorite to avoid relegation, though Genoa has at least given itself a chance by winning two of its last three.
If it is indeed relegated, Genoa would fall down to Serie B for the first time since the 2006-07 season.
Predicted Genoa starting XI: Hefti, Bani, Ostigard, Criscito, Badelj, Galdames, Melegoni, Amiri, Portanova, Destro; Sirigu
