Crotone sits at the bottom of the Serie A table, but Genoa has only one victory from nine away games so far this season.
Giovanni Stroppa wanted Crotone to be more ‘courageous’ from the start against Fiorentina and hailed ‘world-class’ Junior Messias. The Squali lost 2-1 at the Stadio Franchi to Giacomo Bonaventura and Dusan Vlahovic goals, getting one back after the break with Nwankwo Simy. “In terms of character, the second half was certainly better. We should’ve started stronger and been more aggressive, but were sluggish on the goals,” the coach told media. “It was an extraordinary Bonaventura volley, but on the second we shouldn’t have allowed Castrovilli to get that ball away. I am pleased with the reaction and the desire to get back into it afterward, but we must believe in ourselves more from the start.”
Junior Messias hobbled off with a suspected sprained ankle, so he would be a huge loss for Crotone. “Messias is world-class and proving his talent in Serie A, with quality that is superior to most out there, not just in the Crotone squad. We will evaluate him over the next few days and hope it’s not too serious.” The Brazilian has had a quite extraordinary career path, as up until a few years ago he was playing in the semi-pro leagues and still delivering washing machines to make money. He is in doubt due to an ankle injury and must be careful if he plays as he is one yellow card away from suspension. Four Crotone players are injured and will therefore miss the match.
Crotone (3-5-2): Cordaz; Magallan, Marrone, Djidji; Pereira, Benali, Zanellato, Vulic, Reca; Messias, Simy
Suspended: none
Injured: Cuomo, Molina, Cigarini, Riviere
Genoa has 11 points in the last seven Serie A games with Davide Ballardini in the dug-out. ‘I don’t know how I did it,’ the coach said after their win against Cagliari. A Mattia Destro goal allowed the Grifone to take all three points against Cagliari. “I don’t know how I managed to achieve this,” Ballardini told the media with a big smile on his face. “It all depends on what you do daily. My relationship with the city can help too. There are love and responsibility, there is mutual love and I feel responsible for this. A coach always feels it, here a little bit more,” he continued.
Destro has scored his seventh Serie A goal this season. “He is always inside the game, and is willing to help his teammates, he provides assists, he does everything,” Ballardini said. “You can always rely on him, he is always ready to help and he now is reaping the rewards.” Davide Ballardini’s side is unbeaten in the last three league games and travel to the Ezio Scida without three injured players.
Genoa (3-5-2): Perin; Masiello, Radovanovic, Criscito; Zappacosta, Strootman, Badelj, Zajc, Czyborra; Destro, Shomurodov
Suspended: none
Injured: Biraschi, C Zapata, Cassata

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
