Brazilian midfielder Felipe Anderson opened the scoring for head coach Simone Inzaghi's side in the 11th minute of the contest to give the hosts a 1-0 lead at the half.
Genoa managed to level the count in the 52nd minute with a right-footed shot by Argentine forward Lucas Ocampos off a pass by teammate Miguel Veloso.
