Italian top-flight football returns to the historic port city with a high-stakes battle as a struggling Genoa side welcomes high-flying Frosinone.

Serie A
Genoa holds the historical edge here with five wins to Frosinone's two. It's usually tight. However, Frosinone is currently unbeaten in their last three meetings. I remember watching that crazy 3-2 thriller last year where Frosinone completely outplayed them. Matches between the two averages 2.90 goals per game.
Genoa team overview
Genoa enters this one on the back of a truly horrifying start to their league campaign. Il Grifone is under immense pressure right now.
Daniele De Rossi's men have completely collapsed defensively, picking up zero points from three games. A 2-0 defeat to Napoli followed by a tight 1-0 loss to Lazio set the stage for an absolute nightmare last time out, when they were humbled 4-1 at home by Como.
It's a shocking drop off from last season where they comfortably survived in mid-table. Now, they are stuck in a brutal five-game losing streak in the league and winless in the last eight. They have also lost their last four games at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, which make things worst.
Forward Milutin Osmajić scored their only league goal so far, but his solitary effort hasn't been enough to spark a revival. To make matters worse, Hamed Traorè is out with a muscle injury, adding to De Rossi’s growing tactical headache.

Frosinone team overview
Frosinone enters this one on the back of an absolutely electric return to the top flight. I Canarini are flying high right now. Massimiliano Alvini's men have taken the league by storm, racking up six points from their first three matches.
After a narrow 1-0 opening day defeat to Juventus, they responded like true fighters. A stunning 3-0 away dismantling of Fiorentina shocked everyone, and they backed it up last weekend with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Venezia.
It's a massive redemption arc after their promotion from Serie B last season. Looking at their away form, that emphatic clean-sheet triumph in Florence shows they don't fear traveling one bit and avoided defeat in each of their last 17 road encounters.
Young striker Antonio Raimondo has been the absolute star, netting a brilliant brace against Venezia to bring his early season tally to four goals. Aside from Giorgio Cittadini picking up a minor knock, the squad is fully healthy and buzzing.

Prediction
Genoa is desperate to stop the bleeding. They'll attack from the whistle, but their defense is a complete shambles right now. Expect Frosinone to exploit those massive gaps easily. I'm smelling a high-scoring chaotic affair here. Both teams have absolutely zero defensive stability, but plenty of firepower up front. It's going to be a wild ride. My money is on a thrilling 2-2 draw.
Three reasons we expect three or more goals in this game
- Genoa failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last eight competitive home games.
- Frosinone have not kept a clean sheet in their last five competitive games.
- Five of the last eight meetings between Genoa and Frosinone produced over 2.5 goals.
