Of the many substitutes for Cagliari vs. Genoa, Fabio Pisacane immediately puts Alessandro Deiola back in the starting lineup. The number 14 will be the captain for the day, in a midfield with Matteo Prati at the center and Michael Folorunsho at the center. The match will be played at 3:00 PM, the day after the announcement that American fund Praxis Capital Management has acquired a minority stake in the club.
Having returned from the United States on Thursday, Yerry Mina will be a regular at the center of defense . Pisacane had reassured his presence , and the Colombian will look to repeat his performance in another home match on Saturday at 3:00 PM after the international break, when he opened the scoring in a 2-0 win against Parma. This remains the Rossoblu's only home win in Serie A to date. The formation is expected to be a 3-5-2, given the presence of Mattia Felici (rather than Adam Obert) on the left, with Marco Palestra on the flank on the opposite flank and Gabriele Zappa as the right-back. Up front, goals are expected from Gennaro Borrelli and Sebastiano Esposito.
