Season ticket holders at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Genoa languishing in the 17th position so far. The guesting Roma will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Genoa and Roma.

Genoa form and stats

Genoa have played three Serie A home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Genoa, their manager R. Maran and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

The Genoa fans got no joy from their last match, a Serie A game also here at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris: A 1-2 defeat against Torino (placed 18th). Preceding that game was the away draw at Sampdoria that finished 1-1.

A decent goal production from Genoa in their home games so far, with 5 goals from 3 league matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Genoa defense is not exactly impregnable. 5 goals conceded from 3 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Roma form and stats

Things could have gone better for Roma in their Serie A away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

The supporters enjoyed Roma's previous game versus CFR Cluj, a Europa League 5-0 win played at home. Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against Fiorentina in the Serie A.

As mentioned above, Roma was the only team on the pitch versus CFR Cluj in their previous game, winning 5-0. This could be a tougher task.

Roma are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 4 away goals from 3 games (in the league). The Roma manager P. Rodrigues Fonseca has some worries about the defense as 6 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Genoa won zero games, three matches ended with a draw and Roma has seven wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / four
