Start Time and Streaming Info
The game starts at 2:45 p.m. ET. It can be viewed live online thru FuboTV.
Genoa is on a two-game winless skid and has won only once in their last six matches to settle at the 12th spot of the current Italian top flight table. They are six points above the bottom three relegation area and only three points below the final Europa League qualifying berth for next season.
I Rossoblu is coming off a sorry 1-2 derby loss to lowly-club Sampdoria also at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium last Saturday, as per Sporting Life.
Colombian forward Luis Muriel netted the opening goal for La Samp in the 12th minute of the match before Genoa midfielder Luca Rigoni leveled the count in the 24th minute with a close-range left-footer off a cross by Brazilian teammate Edenilson.
An own goal from defender Armando Izzo in the 47th minute gave the lead back to Sampdoria. It proved to be the winning goal for I Blucerchiati, handing head coach Ivan Juric's squad their first loss in five matches.
Meanwhile, AC Milan pulled off a stunning upset, defeating reigning champions Juventus, 1-0, at their home field of Giuseppe Meazza Stadium also last Saturday, Goal reported.
Milan's teenage midfielder Manuel Locatelli scored the winning goal in the 65th minute with a sensational effort past the defense of Juve's legendary goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.
Juve midfielder Miralem Pjanic thought he had given the visitors the lead in the 36th minute, but Leonardo Bonucci was caught offside.
The win was the third straight for I Rossoneri as head coach Vincenzo Montella's side is also undefeated in their last six outings.
