Genoa vs Juventus Prediction
Genoa vs Juventus Prediction and Betting Tips for Sunday’s Serie A showdown at Luigi Ferraris. Juve opened their campaign with a strong 2-0 victory, while Genoa could only manage a draw against Lecce. In this article, you’ll find the latest Serie A Predictions and betting analysis from XpertStats experts.
- Juventus began their Serie A season with a 2-0 win over Parma.
- Genoa settled for a goalless draw against Lecce in their league opener.
- Dusan Vlahovic scored twice in last year’s clash at Luigi Ferraris.
- Genoa have not scored in their last three meetings with Juventus.
Patrick Vieira’s Genoa side kicked off their season with mixed emotions. A 3-0 Coppa Italia win over Vicenza had fans buzzing, but their Serie A opener against Lecce quickly sobered expectations. Despite some bright moments from Valentin Carboni and Nicolae Stanciu, the Grifone lacked a finishing edge. They’ll need Lorenzo Colombo to step up now that Andrea Pinamonti has departed. Can Vieira really squeeze enough goals out of this revamped squad? It’s not impossible, but the early signs point to a team still searching for rhythm.
History also works against the home side. Genoa have beaten Juve just four times in their last 12 encounters at Marassi, and they haven’t found the net in the last three meetings. Last season, Dusan Vlahovic punished them with a brace in a 3-0 loss here. That’s the kind of mental baggage that can weigh heavy, especially against a team as disciplined as Juve. Still, Genoa’s energy under Vieira and the spark from new signings mean they can’t be completely written off.
Juventus, meanwhile, enter this fixture with confidence. Jonathan David, their summer signing, opened his account in style last weekend before Vlahovic came off the bench to seal the points against Parma. It wasn’t flashy, but it was efficient. Igor Tudor has steadied the Old Lady since taking over, and with just one loss in 10 league games under his management, Juve are starting to look like a machine again. That said, the Cambiaso suspension could shuffle their setup a bit, with Weston McKennie likely asked to cover on the flank.
The Bianconeri’s defensive solidity remains their calling card. They conceded just 35 goals last season, the joint-second-best record in Serie A. Add in the form of Kenan Yildiz, who’s been directly involved in 11 goals since March, and you’ve got a team brimming with attacking options as well. Juve may not always dazzle, but they grind out wins and that’s exactly why they’re favored here. For bettors, all signs point to another Juventus victory, though the Grifone’s fight under Vieira means it might not be easy. One thing’s certain: this game won’t be dull.
That’s why this clash feels like a classic case of resilience versus pedigree. Genoa’s spirit and new look give them hope, but Juventus’ structure, depth, and winning mentality remain hard to bet against. In the end, the Serie A Predictions lean strongly toward the visitors taking all three points in Genoa.
Juventus to Win looks like the most logical play heading into Sunday’s clash. The Old Lady started the campaign with a comfortable 2-0 win against Parma, showcasing both defensive stability and attacking depth. Jonathan David opened his account, while Dusan Vlahovic reminded everyone of his quality from the bench. Igor Tudor’s men have now lost just one of their last 10 Serie A fixtures, and last season they boasted the second-best defensive record in the league, conceding only 35 goals in 38 matches. Genoa, meanwhile, drew 0-0 with Lecce in their opener and haven’t scored against Juventus in three straight meetings. With Andrea Pinamonti gone, they lack a proven finisher, leaving much of the burden on Lorenzo Colombo. Add in Genoa’s poor head-to-head history just four wins at home in the last 12 and Juventus’ pedigree and balance suggest they’ll walk away with all three points again.
