Genoa started their new season with a 3-0 win over Vicenza in their Coppa Italia first round fixture. Their first Italian league game ended in a goalless draw against Lecce. For the next league game, Genoa CFC will be at home, and it is going to be an advantage for them.

Juventus have begun their new Serie A campaign with a win. They are coming in after taking down Parma FC in their opening game of the new season. The Bianconeri will be feeling confident despite being away from home.

Players to Watch

Nicolae Stanciu (Genoa)

The 32-year-old midfielder will have an important role to play for the hosts. Nicolae Stanciu will have to regulate the midfield well, which can help Genoa gain an advantage over the visitors. As the upcoming fixture is not going to be an easy affair, Stanciu will be looking to step up.

Kenan Yildiz (Juventus)

Kenan Yildiz displayed a goalless masterclass when he came up with two assists in the opening league game for Juventus. It was a great performance by the Turkish forward, which also helped him clinch the Player of the Match award. He is going to be a menace to the opponent’s defence.
