Overview
- The Serie A match kicks off at 20:45 on Wednesday at Stadio Luigi Ferraris and will be shown exclusively on DAZN, with access also available on Sky channel 214 for DAZN subscribers.
- Juventus arrive after a 2-0 win at Lecce that featured goals from Weston McKennie and Douglas Luiz and gave the team a short-term boost in form.
- Spalletti is missing multiple regulars with long-term problems, including Grabara, Yildiz, Thuram, Locatelli, Conceiçao, Celik and Nico Gonzalez, which has reduced his available options.
- To cover absences, Spalletti named a 23-player squad that includes three Juventus Next Gen players and handed 18-year-old Durmisi his first senior-team call-up.
- Genoa come off a win over Venezia and will look to move further from the relegation zone while the match also serves as a test of Juventus' depth ahead of the coming fixtures.
