Genoa and Juventus will continue their congested schedule on Saturday afternoon. They take on each other in Matchday No 6 at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris.
The match comes just three days after Genoa’s city derby with eternal rivals Sampdoria in the second round of Coppa Italia.
The team led by Alberto Gilardino have generally run into a crisis of late. They are struggling badly to create chances in the final third these days.
Genoa failed to register a single shot on target in a 0-2 defeat to recently-promoted Venezia last Saturday.
They are now up against Juventus who are yet to concede in this term of Serie A. The Bianconeri played three goalless draws in the opening three rounds of the season.
The latest has come seven days ago in the clash with Napoli. We saw just a single shot on goal from each team on the occasion.
Genoa are struggling badly for goals these days. None of their last four league fixtures provided three or more goals.
Gilardino’s team notched no more than a single goal in the last three Serie A outings despite facing Verona, Roma, and Venezia in the process.
Juventus have kept five straight clean sheets in the Serie A. They also got off to a strong start to the Champions League league phase with a 3-1 victory over PSV Eindhoven on the opening day.
