Genoa will take on Roma in a Serie A clash at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium on Thursday. Both teams will be hungry for points after having won only one out of their last five matches. They are both in the bottom-half of the league standings after five rounds.
After kicking off the new season with three games without a win, Roma beat Empoli 7-0. They followed that up with a 2-1 win over Sheriff in the Europa League. In their most recent outing, however, they were held to a 1-1 draw after Daniel Zapata scored an 85th minute equaliser.
Genoa's form has been worse as they are winless in their last three matches. They will be hoping to get atleast a point from the game against Roma in an attempt to climb up the league table.
