Lazio will invite Genoa to the Stadio Olimpico in Serie A on Friday. The capital club have seven wins from 22 league games and have a six-point lead over the 13th-placed visitors.
I Biancocelesti have seen a drop in form, winning just one of their last seven games in all competitions. They are winless in their last two league games. After losing 3-0 at home to Como on Monday, they were held to a goalless draw by Lecce on Saturday.
Thanks for the submission!
Il Grifone, meanwhile, have enjoyed an unbeaten run in 2026, winning two of their five games. They faced Bologna in their previous outing on Sunday and registered a 3-2 home win. They were two goals down by the 47th minute, but goals from substitutes Ruslan Malinovskyi, Caleb Ekuban, and Junior Messias helped them complete the comeback.

Lazio vs Genoa Prediction
I Biancocelesti have won just two of their last nine games in all competitions, with both coming on their travels. They have won their last four league meetings against the visitors while keeping clean sheets, and will look to build on that form.
Samuel Gigot, Nicolò Rovella, and Patric continue to be sidelined for the hosts. Maurizio Sarri is also expected to be without the services of Alessio Romagnoli, who did not train earlier this week.
Il Grifone have drawn their two Serie A away games this year and will look to bounce back with a win here. They have failed to score in their last five meetings against the capital club, which is cause for concern.
Benjamin Siegrist, Tommaso Baldanzi, and Albert Grønbæk are expected to be the three absentees for the visitors. Justin Bijlow is expected to start between the sticks again.
While the hosts have an impressive record against Il Grifone, considering the current form of the two teams, they will likely settle for a draw.
Prediction: Lazio 1-1 Genoa
