The 1-0 away defeat to Roma will not have sat easily with the Genoa squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.  

They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 9 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 7 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.  

It's been a mixed run of form for Genoa recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.

Bologna had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 3-3 draw against Juventus.  In that game they recorded 69 % of the possession, with 6 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 0 of their 0 shots on goal.  

It seems pretty certain that Thiago Motta will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 9 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 5 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped.  When playing away from home, they have scored in 4 of their last 6 games and are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.  

Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 9 games in a row.  

Joshua Zirkzee will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Genoa in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Bologna.
