Italian Serie A picks for Genoa vs. Bologna

Before you tune in to Friday's match, you need to see the Italian Serie A picks from betting expert Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most-informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.

For Bologna vs. Genoa, Sutton is picking Bologna on the moneyline for a +105 payout. The expert notes that Bologna have won seven straight league matches at home, while Genoa have dropped five of their last six on the road. He also acknowledges that the home team has defeated tough competition as of late such as Roma, Atalanta and might Inter Milan.

Bologna should be angry after returning from the Christmas break to be blanked by Udinese, so they should put up a fight on their home soil on Friday. Stream the game here and check out full soccer coverage on CBS Sports Golazo Network.
