Team News

Genoa
  • Jankovic and Sculli will patrol the flanks, even if it is still unsure as to who is going to play left or right.
  • Biondini and Kucka are set to play in midfield, as Rossi and Veloso are still trying to recover from their injuries.
  • After his possible move to Fiorentina was cancelled, Giandomenico Mesto will be Genoa right-back once again.
Lazio
  • Dias suffered an injury during the match against Milan, so Diakitè is ready to replace him.
  • Klose should be available for the trip to Genoa after he missed the Milan clash.
  • Hernanes is still struggling with minor injuries, but he is training hard to be able to make it.

Prediction

  • Genoa need to improve their defensive play, but they also showed that they are capable of beating any team when playing at home. That may give Marino some time to make the new arrivals adapt to the playing style.
  • Lazio are in very good form. Despite a lot of injuries, Inter's comeback and going out of the Coppa Italia, Reja managed to keep his team's soul alive. The battle that Lazio brought onto the field against Milan is a clear indication of that. They are now three points ahead the Neroazzurri, with a chance to widen the gap.
  • As always occurs, expect entertainment to be an element of this match, and the two strikers Klose and Gilardino should hit back of the net as defending is not the two teams' best asset. The home fans will attempt to push Genoa to the victory, and Lazio may suffer from the great effort they put in to beat Milan.
  • PREDICTION: Genoa win 3-2
