Recent Results:

Genoa: 2-1-2

Chievo Verona: 2-1-2

 

• Giovanni Simeone scored twice in the victory for Genoa against Juventus, so he is likely to retain his starting spot as long as Leonardo Pavoletti is out. Coach Ivan Juric is expected to stick with the 3-4-1-2 lineup that beat the Bianconeri.

• Scoring twice in the Coppa Italia game may have granted Roberto Inglese a start in the league as well. Fabrizio Cacciatore will be suspended, which means Nicolas Frey will probably start as right-back for Verona.

• Chievo have only won one of their last 6 Serie A games, losing their last one against Torino. Their 3-0 victory in the Coppa Italia against Novara may have been a good way for their forwards to find confidence.

• Genoa’s work to get more consistency is far from complete, but beating Juventus with such a brilliant performance will boost morale.

• The visitors are still unbeaten at home this season, but have lost each of their last three on the road, which suggests they could struggle despite improved performances in recent weeks. Expect a balanced game, with both sides looking for the win.
