Grifone and Bianconeri to produce a low-scoring game at Stadio Luigi Ferraris
Genoa were 2-1 winners at home to AC Fiorentina and they followed that up with a 2-0 defeat away to AS Roma, so form is not a reliable indicator of what to expect from Wednesday's game. Daniele De Rossi's side will play with three at the back, high wing-backs, which can leave them open to the break but have the potential to unlock any defence with their quick vertical transitions.
Luciano Spalletti's Juventus will try to dictate the tempo of this game, with flexible structures, controlled possession and counter-pressing style.
Juventus can edge it, but don’t expect a goal-fest
Recent form and head-to-head
Juventus were 2-1 winners away to Celta de Vigo in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday, a result that followed a 3-0 home defeat to SS Lazio in the 2026/2027 Serie A – demonstrating the difference in levels the Bianconeri can play at.
So form may not be a good indicator for this game either, but Juventus have dominated the head-to-head with four wins and one draw from the last five meetings while Genoa have won none of their last two home games against Juventus.
Odds and betting tips
- Genoa are priced at 5.5 and the draw at 3.6 for this midweek game, which seems way too high for a fixture where Juventus come in as 1.63 favorites. We should give the visitors the edge, but this is likely to be a close, cagey game.
- Genoa have conceded eight goals in four home Serie A games at an average of 2.00 per game, while Juventus have scored four on their travels at an average of 1.33 goals per game.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.7 looks very reasonable for this Serie A clash between two teams who have yet to consistently find the net this season, while Both Teams to Score – No at 1.73 is a smart play for this fixture at Stadio Luigi Ferraris.
