Saturday's Serie A predictions including Genoa vs. Napoli

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Serie A fixtures, including Genoa vs. Napoli.

Keen to build on last week's win at Empoli, Torino return to Serie A action against Bologna, seeking consecutive victories in Saturday's gameweek 17 fixture at Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino.

Paolo Vanoli's men returned to winning ways after six winless games and search for consecutive triumphs against one of the competition's form teams heading into this weekend.

We say: Torino 1-1 Bologna


While Italiano notched a marginal win against former club Fiorentina, this weekend could end differently despite Torino's wider indifferent form.

Considering that 50% of the previous 10 meetings have ended in ties and the Bull's tendency for close games, the spoils could be shared in Turin.

Genoa vs. Napoli (Saturday, 5.00pm)

Aiming to reclaim the Serie A summit - for one day, at least - second-placed Napoli will visit an improving Genoa side on Saturday.

The Azzurri head for Stadio Luigi Ferraris having responded to consecutive defeats by beating Udinese, while their hosts have inched away from the drop zone since Patrick Vieira took charge.

We say: Genoa 0-1 Napoli


Two teams that prioritise caution over free-flowing football could produce a close-fought contest at Marassi, where Genoa have yet to win a league game this season.

That wait will go on, as Napoli can eventually break their hosts down and claim the three points that will take them top.

Lecce vs. Lazio (Saturday, 7.45pm)

After a humbling home defeat earlier this week, Lazio must try to get back on track at Stadio Via del Mare, as they visit Lecce for Serie A's Saturday night contest.

Hit for six by Inter Milan last time out, the Biancocelesti saw their unlikely title challenge suffer a major setback, while Lecce prevailed in an important survival clash with Monza.

We say: Lecce 1-3 Lazio


Lazio have both won and lost half of their Serie A away games this season, but they are more than capable of improving that record at Lecce's expense.

Responding to an awful collapse on Monday, Marco Baroni can get the better of his old club and boost the Biancocelesti's push for a top-four finish.
