Genoa vs Juventus Prediction 28 Sep 2024

⚽ Serie A - Round 6 Preview

📅 28 Sep 2024

⏰ 17:00 GMT +1

🏟 Stadio Luigi Ferraris (Genoa)

Genoa’s start to the season has been underwhelming, with just one win from their first five games (D2, L2), a familiar scenario for them in recent campaigns. Their sole victory came over a month ago against Monza, and they’ve failed to pick up another win in their last three outings (D1, L2). Coach Alberto Gilardino has taken responsibility for their most recent 2-0 defeat to Venezia, and hopes to change Genoa’s fortunes at home, where they’ve been solid with a seven-match run (W4, D2, L1). However, Genoa have yet to secure a win at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris in Serie A this season (D2, L1), with each match seeing them fall behind at some point, a worrying trend ahead of Juventus' visit. Historically, Juventus have been Genoa's bogey team, winning 85 of their 142 meetings.

Despite this historical dominance, Juventus have struggled recently against Genoa, failing to win in their last three head-to-head encounters (D2, L1). Still unbeaten this season across all competitions (W3, D3), Juventus will aim to break their goal drought, with their last three league matches ending 0-0 for the first time since 1992. With a cautious approach away from home, Juventus have drawn five of their last six road games in Serie A, managing just one win in their last ten away matches (D6, L3). Coach Thiago Motta, who lost 2-0 here last season while managing Bologna, faces a tough challenge in overcoming these odds.
