Genoa head into this match following on from a 0-0 Serie A draw versus Hellas Verona.

In that match, Genoa had 54% possession and 4 shots at goal with 1 on target. At the other end, Hellas Verona got 14 shots at goal with 2 of them on target.

Their more recent scorelines really do illustrate the point that it has been a great time for the Genoa rearguard. Genoa have kept it tight, resulting in the total number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper during their past six matches standing at 4.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Genoa:

• have left without a victory over Lazio in their last 2 league games.
• are undefeated in their last 6 league matches at home.

Lazio

LDWLDW ⚖

Lazio head into the match after a 3-1 Europa League win vs Bodo Glimt in their last match.

In that match, Lazio managed 54% possession and 32 shots at goal with 11 of them on target. For Lazio, goals were scored by Valentín Castellanos (20'), Tijjani Noslin (90') and Boulaye Dia (100'). Bodo Glimt had 12 shots at goal with 8 on target. Andreas Helmersen (109') scored for Bodo Glimt. The game was won 2-3 by Bodo Glimt on penalties.

It is worth noting that Lazio have been starved of goals over their previous 6 encounters, netting the disappointing return of just 4. In those fixtures, i Biancocelesti have also seen the collective goal tally against them equal 10. That aside, we will just have to wait and see if the trend shall be maintained in this upcoming match.

Heading into this contest, Lazio remain undefeated by Genoa in games played away from home for the previous 4 league games. A very decent away record against them.

📰 Team News: Genoa

Alan Matturro (Muscle fatigue), Mario Balotelli (Broken hand), Ruslan Malinovskyi (bruise) and Hugo Cuenca (unknown injury) are not available for Genoa manager Patrick Vieira.

It looks as if Il Grifone will possibly opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation for this one, utilising Nicola Leali, Stefano Sabelli, Koni De Winter, Johan Vasquez, Aaron Martin Caricol, Morten Frendrup, Alessandro Zanoli, Junior Messias, Morten Thorsby, Fabio Miretti and Andrea Pinamonti.

📰 Team News: Lazio

Lazio manager Marco Baroni has multiple availability issues to deal with. Nuno Tavares (Hamstring injury) and Patric (Ankle surgery) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

It’s our belief that i Biancocelesti might utilise a 4-2-3-1 formation using Christos Mandas, Adam Marusic, Mario Gila, Alessio Romagnoli, Luca Pellegrini, Matteo Guendouzi, Nicolo Rovella, Loum Tchaouna, Boulaye Dia, Mattia Zaccagni and Valentin Castellanos.

🔮 Prediction

Our feeling is that Genoa will do well to hit the back of the net against this Lazio team who should just have the edge.

We’ve gone for a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 win for Lazio when the referee blows for full-time.

A close call.
