The Old Lady goes to Genoa Thursday night to continue their perfect start in the Serie A in a top clash against Genoa.
Juventus have won convincing victories so far but should not expect any gifts from Genoa, who beat them last time they came to visit Marassi in a controversial 3-2 win. Thiago Motta gave Genoa the lead in the middle of first half, when Juventus players stopped playing after the referee had blown his whistle. Later in the game Juventus player Vincenzo Iaquinta had a goal disallowed. In the 2nd half Mauro Camoranesi was sent off and at 2-2 Genoas Raffaele Palladino stole the victory 2 minutes before the final whistle, which dealt Juventus a devastating blow that more or less ended Juventus’ title dreams.
No doubt that Genoa will attempt to repeat that performance as they themselves have had a dream start winning 3 out of 4 games to claim a current 4th place in the league table. With a win Thursday they can close the 3-point gap to Juventus in 2nd place.
Overall Juve has by far the best record against Genoa. The 2 teams have played 84 times in Serie A with Juventus winning 50 against Genoas 18. 16 games have drawn. However, at the Marassi things look at lot more even. Of the 42 times the teams squared off on this field Genoa won 16, Juventus won 17 and 9 games have drawn. So basically this game will be a tossup.

I for one will be rooting for Juventus to continue their series of wins and if Sampdoria loses points against Fiorentina tonight, Juventus can claim the 1. PlaceJ
