Genoa form and stats

With 1 Serie A win, 2 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Genoa are certainly not brimming with confidence. Genoa are slowly digging their own grave here at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Crotone match.

Genoa faced defeat in their previous match, away at Sassuolo (1-2). Before that, Genoa drew at home versus Lazio.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Genoa as they are travelling to their away game against Juventus in the Coppa Italia. That match is four days after this one.

Genoa are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 8 games. Genoa are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (16 from 8 played).

Bologna form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Bologna so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-4 (win-draw-lose). The Bologna manager S. Mihajlović is a generous human being, having led his team to five draws in a row during the last 27 days. One point away has become something of a habit for Bologna who have played out draws in their last three away games.

Bologna's last game was the home draw against Udinese (2-2). Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Fiorentina that ended 0-0.

The visitors have scored 7 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Bologna have conceded 12 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Genoa won three, Bologna won four and three draws. one game with over 2,5 goals, nine matches with two goals or less.
