Genoa take on the visitors Chievo at "Stadio Luigi Ferraris" in the matchday five of the Italian Serie A. The game will be played on Wednesday, September 20th.
Genoa are the team which is in the deepest crisis among the all Italian clubs in 2017. Having completely failed the second half of the previous season, the side is keeping on falling down in this season as well. "Il Grifone" have gained not a single win in their official clashes, having earned two draws and three defeats with 4:8 aggregated score. After four rounds played Genoa sit on the 16th place in the Serie A standings with one single point earned and 4-8 goal difference. The team has lost both encounters in face of its fans in this season's Serie A: 2:4 to Juventus and 2:3 to Lazio.

Chievo had a better start in the elite division in this season, having taken points from Atalanta at their own turf in the previous gameweek, having earned 1:1 draw. "Mussi Volanti" picked up four points with 4:7 goal difference in four encounters this season resulted in the team's settling on the 12th position in the Serie A table. In 2017 Chievo conducted 13 matches on the road resulting in four triumphs, one draw and eight losses.
Chievo have not been beaten by Genoa across three recent head-to-heads, having got two victories and single draw in them. The forthcoming battle is important for both sides and I believe that there will be combined a lot of goals in it as both rivals score regularly while conceding even more. I presume that in the upcoming clash the opponents won't focus on their defense preferring active play in attack.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 scored goals.
