This Wednesday Genoa play host in the Serie A round 15 fixture at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris to AC Milan whom their unbeaten run was finally cut with successive defeats.
Genoa still occupies the relegation zone, the 18th place, but remains in contact with the first non-relegation Spezia since only one point separates the two clubs. Things are tough for Genoa, who are currently enduring the longest winless run in the Serie A with 7 draws and have lost 6 times.
Since the appointment of Andriy Shevchenko has not shown an impact yet and Genoa have even failed to score. Genoa’s only victory in the campaign came early September and Shevchenko has a big task to save his side from the relegation zone something Genoa fans have become all too familiar with in recent years.
Genoa obtained another point of a goalless draw during their trip to fellow strugglers Udinese 0 -0 last weekend just a week after losing against AS Roma 0-2. This will be a tough match for the hosts and following to that their fixture list fails to get any easier over the next few days, as they then meet Juventus then Sampdoria.
AC Milan on the other had a very encouraging kick off going unbeaten in the first 12 league games before Fiorentina managed to grab all the three points in the matchday 13 in a 4-3 result. AC Milan couldn’t bounce back and Sassuolo made it back to back defeat for Milan last time out in the match ended in shocking 1-3 result.
The Rossoneri will not want to trip up in Genoa considering their form and the desperation to bounce back to winning ways. Before the back to back defeats, Milan were alongside their southern counterparts, Napoli. AC Milan dropped to the second position now with 32 points only a one match drop for Napoli and Milan catch up with them.
Genoa vs AC Milan head to head
In the last 6 head to head meetings, Milan have won 4times with only one match ended in a draw while the hosts have only won once the victory coming on the road. Genoa haven’t won in their last 11 games and have played 6 home matches in a row without winning.
