Genoa won the Serie A Week 36 game against Sassuolo on Sunday 12 May 2024 at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium in Genova, Italy. Genoa comeback to win a match that saw Sassuolo in the lead with a penalty from Andrea Pinamonti. In the second half in just a few minutes, first Badelj and then an own goal from Kumbulla reversed the result and gave the home team the three points. Sassuolo remained stuck in penultimate place with 29 points, but thanks to the defeats of Cagliari, Empoli and Frosinone, they can still hope for salvation. The match in a week between the Emilians and the Sardinians will be decisive. Genoa continues its good run of form and momentarily overtakes Monza, reaching 46 points.
Sassuolo took the lead in the 31st minute. Andrea Pinamonti defeated Hellas Verona goalkeeper by converting a penalty with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The penalty was conceded by Koni De Winter after a foul on Armand Laurienté.

✅ Stats before the game: Sassuolo have won eight matches in Serie A against Genoa (D5, L6), only against Hellas Verona (nine) and Inter (10) have they achieved more successes in the top flight. In the nine matches between Genoa and Sassuolo in Serie A played in Liguria the same result has never been repeated twice in a row; four home wins, two away and three draws, including one in the most recent match on 17 October 2021. Genoa have scored three goals in their last two Serie A matches and have not reached three games in a row with at least three goals scored in the competition since May 2015. Genoa won their last Serie A home match (3-0 against Cagliari) and the last time they achieved two home successes in a row in the competition, they did so without conceding a goal (1-0 against Salernitana and Verona between October and November). Sassuolo won their last championship match, against Inter, and only once this season have they achieved two successes in a row, in September, again against the Nerazzurri and against Juventus in that case.
