Spezia are welcoming Genoa for another important game after their 1-2 result against 2nd-placed Inter.
- Spezia has the the worst goal difference (-7) at home in Serie A
- Genoa has the fewest scored goals in the first half (4) in Serie A
It's no vacation for neither Spezia nor Genoa 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.
Spezia form and stats
Spezia's struggle is real here at Stadio Alberto Picco with only 3 points collected from 6 Serie A games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 0-3-3. With seven home Serie A games in a row without a win, the Spezia fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Chievo game long ago, can be stopped today.
No payout for Spezia in their previous match, an away game at Inter that ended in defeat 1-2. Before that, Spezia drew at home versus Bologna.
The Spezia fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 6 matches. Spezia are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (14 from 6 played).
Genoa form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Genoa, who have the fewest scored goals (2) away in Serie A, so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-3 (win-draw-lose). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Genoa, who have now gone twelve games without a victory. The Crotone game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.
Genoa are travelling again after losing away to Benevento in their previous match (0-2). A draw for Genoa before that, at their own venue hosting Milan (2-2).
Goals are few and far between in Genoa's away league games. Only 2 goals from 6 travels. Genoa's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 11 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last four meetings between these two teams are: one win for Spezia, one draw and two wins for Genoa. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: zero games.Top Goalscorers
