Genoa in search of points in Emilia

Sassuolo, boosted by their win over Cagliari, host a Genoa side needing points for survival

Sassuolo vs. Genoa at the Mapei Stadium opens the schedule for Monday’s matchday ten Serie A Enilive games. The home side, after their very important win over Cagliari, will aim to make it two wins in a row to continue their fight for survival. That fight, however, concerns the visitors, who were defeated by Cremonese on Wednesday. Genoa, who have just one point in their last six matches, currently sit bottom of the league and are searching for their first win of the campaign.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

In Emilia, the two sides have met 10 times: 6 home wins for the Neroverdi (most recently 2-1 in Serie A 2020/21), 2 draws (most recently 1-1 in Serie A 2021/22), and 2 victories for the Grifone (most recently 2-1 in Serie A 2023/24).

DID YOU KNOW?

Genoa remain winless in Serie A 2025/26, alongside Pisa, Verona, and Fiorentina. The Grifone's last victory came on May 24, a 3-1 triumph at Bologna. Genoa are the lowest scorers in the league with just 4 goals in 9 rounds, matching Parma's tally.

COACHES and PLAYERS

Armand Laurienté has 14 Serie A goals for Sassuolo and sits two short of the Neroverdi's all-time top ten in the top flight, where Sansone, Scamacca, and Traoré are tied on 16.
