The visiting Juventus side should be favourites in this visit to Genoa, as the away team holds a 43 point advantage from their 28 league games this season.

It's no vacation for neither Genoa nor Juventus as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Genoa form and stats

Genoa's struggle is real here at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris with only 13 points collected from 13 Serie A games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 4-1-8. Genoa are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris, having lost their two previous games here.

Genoa travelled for their previous game, a trip to Brescia that ended 2-2. Ahead of that match, Genoa lost 1-4 at home to Parma.

Trouble was brewing at the score 0-2 against Brescia last time out, but a goal from Andrea Pinamonti completed a comeback to a draw result for Genoa.

The Genoa fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 13 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Genoa defense is not exactly impregnable. 22 goals conceded from 13 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Juventus form and stats

Juventus, who have the most clean sheets (11) in Serie A, have an excellent away record in the Serie A so far with 9-2-3 from 14 games. Juventus have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of five victories in a row regardless of arena. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Juventus are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

The Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 291 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

Juventus had fun at their own home (Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris) last time out, beating Lecce 4-0. Matthijs De Ligt, Cristiano Ronaldo, Paulo Dybala and Gonzalo Higuaín scored. Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Bologna.

As you can tell from the results above, Juventus was very dominant against Lecce, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with Matthijs De Ligt, Cristiano Ronaldo, Paulo Dybala and Gonzalo Higuaín providing the goals.

A quick return to home after this game, as Juventus are hosting Torino in the Serie A only four days away.

Juventus are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 21 times in 14 away games so far. Juventus have conceded 14 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Juventus - Genoa 2-1 played earlier this season. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's two Genoa victories, one draw and seven Juventus wins. Over/under statistics; four of these games ended with three goals or more, six matches with two goals or less.
