What shaped the view
- + Medium tempo: Genoa should have more territory and half-space pressure, with Sassuolo still dangerous on transition.
- + Genoa’s 3-4-2-1 starts Baldanzi and Vitinha behind Colombo, while Sassuolo go full 4-3-3 with Berardi-Pinamonti-Laurienté and Matic holding.
- + The home edge is there, but Sassuolo’s front three make the draw live, so the quarter-ball is cleaner than Genoa 1X2.

Why it made the board
Genoa’s shape is built to control this matchup at home, and Baldanzi/Vitinha can work around Matic with Boloca absent. Sassuolo still carry enough attack to avoid the straight win and take the safer home quarter-ball.
Main risk
Tactical Counter: Main danger is Sassuolo’s wide counter through Berardi and Laurienté if Genoa’s wing-backs get caught too high.
