Juventus vs Genoa Prediction & Preview

Preview

This Sunday, the 17th of March, the Allianz Stadium is set to host an enthralling encounter in the Italy Serie A as Juventus welcomes Genoa for what promises to be a captivating match in the 29th round of the competition. Under the guidance of Massimiliano Allegri, Juventus aims to fortify their position at 3rd in Serie A with 58 points. Meanwhile, Alberto Gilardino’s Genoa seeks to climb up from their current standing at 12th with 33 points.

Recent form suggests a tightly contested battle ahead. Juventus has been experiencing mixed outcomes with a record of one win, one loss, and three draws in their last five matches - securing six points from these games. Their last outing ended in a dramatic 2-2 draw against Atalanta at home. On the other side, Genoa has gathered five points from their last five matches through one win, two losses and two draws - recently facing a narrow defeat against Monza with a scoreline of 2-3.

The history between these two teams hints at Juventus having an upper hand with three wins out of their previous five head-to-head matches; however, Genoa managed one victory and forced one draw during these encounters. Their most recent clash on December 15th ended evenly matched at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris (1-1), showcasing how unpredictable this rivalry can be.

When it comes to scoring capabilities and defensive performance this season: Juventus averages 1.9 goals per game while conceding an average of 1.1 goals per match. Specifically impressive is their home performance where they score an average of over two goals per game while keeping tight defense conceding just about a goal per game on average. Conversely, Genoa averages less prolifically at scoring with an overall rate of 1.2 goals per game and concedes slightly more than they do away from home with an average concession rate matching that when playing away.
