Genoa-Bari is a match of the thirty-eighth day of Serie B and is played on Friday at 8:30pm: lineups, predictions, TV and streaming.
Until a couple of days ago they were contending for second place, but now in the league they have nothing left to play for. Genoa celebrated its immediate return to the top flight last May 6 thanks to its success with Ascoli and is already focused on next season. Bari hopes to join them soon, but to succeed in the feat of the double jump in the category they will have to win the playoffs, where they come in as big favorites.
The tournament of Michele Mignani’s Pugliesi actually ended in the last round: the victory against Reggina (1-0) allowed them to secure third place. Galletti who will therefore enter the scene starting from the semifinals, avoiding the preliminary round. It goes without saying that the Biancorosso coach has only the play-offs in mind, which is why he will rotate several players in the Marassi challenge, nothing more than a “friendly” being so. Instead, that of the “Ferraris” will be yet another night of celebration for Alberto Gilardino’s Rossoblù, who returned to A with two days in advance. Saturday ended the Grifone’s long unbeaten streak, which had not lost even since last February. Genoa got the worst of it in the neo-promoted confrontation with Frosinone, with whom it will find itself upstairs next year: a pyrotechnic 3-2 spiced up even by the expulsion of Genoa’s Bani.
Genoa-Bari: the latest lineup news
Emergency in defense for Gilardino, who will not have available the disqualified Bani, as well as Ilsanker and Matturro. He could switch to four, with Vogliacco and Dragusin in the center.
Folorunsho and Esposito
In Bari Mignani will rest starting striker Cheddira but the warned Bellomo and Mazzotta will not be there either. The attack will consist of Ceter and Esposito.
The prediction
Genoa wants to greet its public with a victory, giving the fans a date for next season. Bari, on the other hand, is already focused on the playoffs, which is why we will see a large turnover by coach Mignani. A draw could benefit both sides, but it’s a night when goals will certainly not be lacking.
The probable lineups of Genoa-Bari
- GENOA (4-3-2-1): Semper; Hefti, Vogliacco, Dragusin, Sabelli; Sturaro, Badelj, Frendrup; Gudmundsson, Aramu; Coda.
- BARI (4-4-2): Frattali; Dorval, Zuzek, Vicari, Ricci; Molina, Benali, Benedetti, Morachioli; Esposito, Ceter.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 2-2
