Genoa to host Lazio Amid Relegation Battle

Genoa must take a positive approach to this game, if they are to get anything out of, following their recent defeat to Hellas Verona at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi.

Also, Genoa’s success this season will ultimately depend on their ability to break the habit of not winning, as The Griffin failed to secure a win in 19 of their last 20 fixtures. With 22 points, they currently sit eighteenth in the League. The breakdown for the team’s record is 2 wins, 13 losses and 16 draws having won two games, drawn 16 meetings, and lost 13 matches.

Genoa have won one game, drawn eight meetings, and lost six matches of their 15 League matches at home this season.

Winning this fixture will see Genoa on 25 points.

Injury and illness have depleted Alexander Blessin’s Genoa and they will likely be missing four key personnel for Sunday’s match.

With the Serie A season well into its stride, Lazio have managed to gain 52 points

With a win in their previous game, (2-1) against Sassuolo, Lazio will likely be in a positive frame of mind.

Also, Lazio keep finding ways to win, having secured nine victories in their last 16 fixtures is astonishing this season. They currently stand sixth in the League, with 52 points for a total of 15 wins, 9 losses and 7 draws having won 15 games, drawn seven fixtures, and lost nine meetings.

Lazio’s away record is remarkable and poses a significant threat to Genoa. In the 16 games they’ve played on the road this season, they have so far won six matches, drawn three games, and lost seven fixtures.

Lazio will have 55 points if they manage to secure a victory.
