Despite recent struggles, it remains challenging to overlook an away win when making a Genoa vs. Juventus prediction.
An interesting clash in Serie A this weekend will be staged at Luigi Ferraris Stadium.
Juventus have failed to score in their last two league matches, but a response will be expected against a Genoa side that has won just once in five league outings this term.

Juventus’ Forward Line Stuttering
The league standings make for decent reading for Juventus at this stage, with their two wins and three draws seeing them sit fourth in the standings.
However, goals in their matches have been a rarity. There are no issues defensively, as the Old Lady have kept five straight clean sheets this term, but they have netted just six times.
Juventus come into this round after three successive goalless draws in the league. They have never previously played out four 0-0 draws in a row in their Serie A history.
Back-to-Back Losses a Rarity for Genoa
Genoa will be unfancied in the odds this weekend, and it’s not hard to see why when they have won just once in five league outings this term.
The Italian side was beaten in their latest outing against Venezia, but they have suffered back-to-back losses on just one occasion in Serie A throughout 2024.
Their record against the Old Lady also deserves respect ahead of the showdown on Saturday.
Genoa have avoided defeat in their last three league matches against the Old Lady, which has been an excellent response after losing five on the bounce prior to the 2022-23 season.
Juve to Edge Close Encounter
Little separates these sides in previous meetings at Luigi Ferrari, with both teams recording four wins over the last nine.
However, Juventus will be under increased pressure this weekend, and a victory will be necessary to enhance their title credentials.
A low-scoring affair is likely, given the Old Lady’s defensive record, but we expect the visitors to squeak out a narrow success.
