Serie A
The two sides have played ten competitive matches against each other in all competitions since 2020. Lazio were by far the better team during this period, winning eight games and keeping four clean sheets. Genoa won just one game, while one match ended in a draw. The average number of goals per game during this period was three.
Genoa team overview
With two defeats and two draws from their first four league games, Genoa are on the brink of going winless in their opening five games of the campaign for only the second time in their history.
They began their campaign with a goalless draw against Lecce, lost 1-0 to Juventus on matchday two, and drew 1-1 with Como in their third game.
And despite taking the lead with just over 30 minutes remaining last weekend, Patrick Vieira’s side lost 2-1 to Bologna. But having responded with a 2-1 win over Empoli in the Coppa Italia last time out Patrick Vieira's side will fancy their chances of leaving Monday's game with something.
Jean Onana has not featured this season due to a muscle problem, and the midfielder will not be available until next month.

Lazio team overview
Lazio have also had a disappointing start to the campaign, with the team currently sitting only two points above the bottom three. The Eagles suffered three defeats against Como, Verona and Sassuolo, failing to score in any of these matches.
Two of these defeats were away from home, which will be a major concern for head coach Maurizio Sarri. However, with four wins from their last four games against Genoa, the away fans will be confident that their side can secure all three points on Monday.
Samuel Gigot, Matías Vecino, Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, Manuel Lazzari and Nicolò Rovella will be unavailable due to injury.
Reda Belahyane and Mattéo Guendouzi are also unavailable for the visittors after picking up red cards in the defeat to Roma last time out.

Prediction
The visitors will go into Monday’s game as favourites for the three points, having won 12 of their last 18 clashes with Genoa – but Genoa can’t be underestimated at home. The hosts have lost only one of their five competitive home matches this season and conceded fewer than 1.5 goals in each of them. With Lazio also struggling to score goals at the moment, I expect a close game that could end in a 1-0 win for either side.
Three reasons we expect under 2.5 goals in this game
- Six of the last eight league games of Lazio ended with under 2.5 goals.
- Only one of Genoa’s four Serie A games so far has produced more than two goals.
- Four of the last five meetings between Genoa and Lazio ended with under 2.5 goals
