Genoa Form
After limp, goalless defeats to Udinese and Juventus (both 0:2), De Rossi and his staff worked on their mistakes. In the matches with Sassuolo and Pisa (both 2:1), Genoa still allowed plenty of chances, but the level of the opposition made it possible to focus on attack — that is how the team managed to snatch vital points. Now the Genoa side sit 11 points clear of the relegation zone, so there is no need to overexert themselves.
Key numbers for Genoa:
The hosts have scored 21 goals at home — this is the worst figure along with Torino and Sassuolo among the teams who have collected 22+ points.
At home Genoa have allowed 23.15 xGA — seventh from bottom.
Before the match with Pisa, Genoa's top scorer Colombo had gone nine games in a row without scoring.
Potential Genoa Lineup
(3-4-1-2): Justin Bijlow — Johan Vasquez, Leo Ostigard, Alessandro Marcandalli — Stefano Sabelli, Patrizio Masini, Alex Amorim, Aaron Martin — Tommaso Baldanzi — Jeff Ehator, Lorenzo Colombo.
Out of squad: Maxwel Cornet, Brooke Norton-Cuffy (both injured).
