Genoa and Juventus are set to take the field tonight at 8:45 p.m. at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium for their Serie A Matchday 9 clash. The Rossoblù, coming off a 1-0 win over Venezia, aim to capitalize on home-field advantage to build on their recent results and solidify the progress they’ve made in recent weeks. Juventus, on the other hand, is coming off a 2-0 win over Lecce and is looking for another victory to put a difficult stretch behind them and regain consistency in their performance.

Daniele De Rossi is expected to deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Ehizibue, Marcandalli, Østigård, and Vásquez making up the defensive line. In midfield, Frendrup is expected to be paired with Amorim, while Baldanzi, Vitinha, and Ellertsson are expected to play behind Osmajic. Colombo, who is returning from an injury, could start on the bench.

Juventus, on the other hand, is expected to line up in a 3-5-1-1 formation. In defense, the trio of Gatti, Bremer, and Lucumí is expected to start, while Kalulu and Cambiaso should man the fullback positions. In midfield, Douglas Luiz and McKennie are likely to start, with Sarr and Koopmeiners vying for the remaining spot. Up front, Alajbegovic has the edge over Kolo Muani to support Woltemade, the Bianconeri’s main attacking threat.

Genoa (4-2-3-1): Bijlow; Ehizibue, Marcandalli, Østigård, Vásquez; Frendrup, Amorim; Baldanzi, Vitinha, Ellertsson; Osmajic. Head Coach: De Rossi.
