Gigi De Canio is confident his Genoa players can pick up a result in the weekend’s clash with Champions League qualification chasing Udinese.
The Grifone are embroiled in a tense relegation battle with Lecce and only recorded their first win for almost three months on Wednesday night.
However, De Canio believes that the 2-1 success over Cagliari in Week 36 is the catalyst his players need to go to Udine on Sunday and not lose.
