Inter vs Genoa Prediction 22 February 2025
🔊 Will Inter be able to achieve a positive result in the upcoming clash? The reigning champion of Italy has noticeably slowed down in recent matches, earning only 4 points out of a possible 12. Genoa, on the other hand, continues to maintain a high standard set after the appointment of Patrick Vieira as head coach. In this situation, we will try to analyze all the details to provide you with an accurate prediction for the 26th round of Serie A, which will take place at the "Giuseppe Meazza".
Head-to-Head
Genoa continues to be one of the most convenient opponents for Inter. The "Nerazzurri" have a total advantage in results both in the short term and over a longer period. For instance, the "griffin" has been unable to achieve a positive result for 11 matches now - since 2018. Although in the first round, Genoa managed to hold off Inter's lightning-fast attack, drawing (2-2).
Head-to-head statistics Inter - Genoa
Inter Milano Team Overview
One of humanity's great mysteries - what happened to Inter in the recent matches? A team that was securing one convincing victory after another has simply stopped earning points. In a stretch of 4 games, the "Nerazzurri" won only once, and in the previous round, they suffered a defeat from Juventus (0-1), which fielded a semi-reserve lineup. During the 90 minutes of play, Simone Inzaghi's team made 17 shots towards the opponent's goal, but only 3 of them were truly dangerous. Despite such an unfortunate stretch, Inter continues to hold the second spot in the Serie A standings, trailing Napoli by just 2 points. The coaching staff urgently needs to find a way to boost the morale of their players before the "Partenopei" wake up themselves. Ahead of the upcoming match, the participation of three players is in question, including the main goalkeeper Yann Sommer with a finger injury.

Genoa CFC Team Overview
Genoa approaches the upcoming match in decent form. There was a period when it seemed like the team was starting to lose momentum, but Patrick Vieira was able to quickly get his players back on track. The victory over Venezia (2-0) in the previous round was particularly significant. The "Griffin" defeated one of the main relegation contenders with class, scoring two magnificent goals against their opponent. In the league table, Genoa also holds a good position, sitting in eleventh place with a solid cushion from the relegation zone. As for the upcoming clash, the coaching staff will be unable to count on 4 players, including key midfielder Milan Badelj (hip injury).

⚽️ Goal Prediction
A significant decline in defensive actions is one of the main reasons why Inter has stopped delighting its fans with victories. The team has been unable to keep a clean sheet for 4 matches, although they conceded only 1 goal throughout the entire group stage of the Champions League. Considering that the upcoming match will likely be missed by the main goalkeeper of the "Nerazzurri," Yann Sommer, a reliable betting option seems to be a goal from Genoa. Moreover, Patrick Vieira's squad is in fighting form.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Corners are the only statistical measure that hasn't suffered during Inter's crisis, which has lasted for 3 weeks. The team, with an average total of 6.2 corners, continues to occupy the first place in Serie A. In home matches, the numbers are even higher. Genoa, on the other hand, is not as strong in this component. Patrick Vieira's squad earns an average of 4.2 corners, which is one of the worst figures. In such a situation, a reasonable decision would be to opt for a bet on Inter's win in corners with a handicap (-2.5), considering that the "Nerazzurri" will play with the support of their home fans.
Editorial Prediction
According to the bookmakers, Inter is the clear favorite in the upcoming clash. But is it really that obvious? The team is certainly going through a rough patch, and this decline is not due to the execution of moments or personnel issues, but an overall deterioration in the quality of play. Frequent defensive errors and difficulties in creating attacks negatively affect the psychological state of the "Nerazzurri" players and their confidence in their own abilities. Genoa, on the other hand, is on the move and will clearly try to take advantage of Inter's current situation. Considering that after Patrick Vieira's appointment as head coach, the "Griffon" has only suffered two away losses, our key betting option will be Genoa to win with a handicap (+2). If the hosts do manage to achieve a positive result, it will be by a maximum margin of one goal, for example, with a score of 2-1.
