Genoa head coach Patrick Vieira is facing serious pressure after the recent start to the Serie A season. As reported by the Italian media, the French specialist can spend his time after the next two matches - against Sassuolo and Fiorentini.

The grudge fights will become major for the upcoming World Cup. After them there will be an international pause, so the club may be forced to change the coach if Genoa’s results do not improve.

The team, for which the Ukrainian football player Ruslan Malinovsky plays, started the season very quickly - in nine rounds the Genoese scored just three points, winning three draws and suffering six defeats.

The last of them was a home loss in the match with Serie A newcomer Cremonese (0:2), after some patience the club seems to be reaching its end.

With three points, Genoa remains in the remaining place in the Italian Championship standings. In the upcoming match, the Vieiri team will play 3 leaves on the road against Sassuolo.
