Genoa, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 away defeat by Torino will have left the Genoa squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with 37% of the possession and clocked up 7 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Torino managed 10 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.
Having lost 12 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Alberto Gilardino will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 10 goals they scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have had an excellent run of form at Stadio Luigi Ferraris recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
Napoli, Recent FormThe Napoli squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 home defeat against Lazio, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 61%, while racking up 22 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Lazio had 6 shots on goal with 2 on target.
Manager Rudi Garcia will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 13 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Victor Osimhen is giving Napoli's travelling fans plenty to shout about having scored 7 goals in the squad's last 6 away games in the league.
The last time these two teams met Napoli enforced their superiority over Genoa with a comfortable 3-0 win.
When playing away from home in the league, I Partenopei have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 5 matches against Genoa. Napoli have an impressive record of scoring goals against Il Grifone, with a tally of 14 goals against them in their previous 5 encounters.
Genoa has lost the last 2 times they've faced Napoli in the league.
With only Alan Matturro (Muscle) and Alessandro Vogliacco (Thigh) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Alberto Gilardino will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Napoli manager Rudi Garcia ahead of this clash, with Pierluigi Gollini (Hand) missing out, which gives Garcia a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
