Serie A: Genoa vs Juventus 28/10/2026

Things look pretty clear ahead of tonight’s clash at Marassi, where Genoa host Juventus in Serie A Matchday 9, and everything points to a tight, tactically disciplined game. The hosts sit near the bottom of the table with 7 points, all of them won in front of their own fans, but their attacking problems are serious: just six goals scored in eight rounds.

De Rossi will also be without Sow, Havel and Venturino, so Osmajić will once again have to lead the line without much real support. Spalletti’s side has a long injury list (Yildiz, Thuram, Locatelli, Conceição, Nico González), which directly reduces their attacking depth and creativity in the final third. The numbers favour a low-scoring game: Genoa’s matches this season average around 2.4 goals, the same as Juventus’s, and Juve haven’t conceded in their last five Serie A meetings with Genoa. Three of the last four head-to-head games also finished with fewer than 2.5 goals.

I expect Genoa to sit in a low block and look for chances on the counter through Ellertsson and El Shaarawy, while Juve control the tempo without taking too many risks. The most realistic scenario is a narrow away win or a low-scoring draw, so my pick is 0 to 2 Goals.
