The Bianconeri aim to recover from three consecutive goalless draws, while the home team seeks to climb out of the lower part of the table; see details
Genoa and Juventus face off this Saturday (28) at 1 PM (Brasília time) at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium, for the 6th round of the Italian Championship, Serie A. The match will be broadcast live on ESPN, on cable TV, and on Disney+, on streaming (check the full schedule).
Juve started the national league with two consecutive victories but has stalled in the table since then, with three straight goalless draws – the last against Napoli, in a reunion with Antonio Conte. The team led by Thiago Motta remains unbeaten, it is true, and has yet to concede any goals, but needs to start scoring again if it wants to stay close to the table leaders.
Meanwhile, Genoa has won only one of its first five matches of the championship, placing it in a modest 16th position in the table, with five points. The relegation zone is just two positions below, with Venezia at the bottom, just one point behind.
Probable line-ups
Genoa: Gollini; De Winter, Bani, and Vásquez; Sabelli, Thorsby, Badelj, Frendrup, and Martin; Vitinha and Pinamonti. Coach: Alberto Gilardino.
Juventus: Di Gregorio; Savona, Gatti, Bremer, and Cambiaso; Locatelli; González, Thuram, Koopmeiners, and Yildiz; Vlahovic. Coach: Thiago Motta.
