Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Genoa, 16th position with 20 points and a negative goal difference of -7
Bologna, 8th position with 30 points and a positive goal difference of +6

🇮🇹    A fantastic win for Genoa as they triumphed in the Serie A Week 22 match on Sunday, January 25, 2026, at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium in Genoa, Italy. With this victory, Genoa moves up to 23 points, establishing a solid 6-point cushion above the relegation zone. Unfortunately for Bologna, they face another defeat and remain at 30 points.

Genoa's victory came after an exciting match that featured two contrasting halves. Bologna initially took the lead with goals from Ferguson and an own goal by Otoa. However, the pivotal moment occurred in the 56th minute when Skorupski received a direct red card for a miscalculated challenge outside the penalty area. De Rossi then introduced Malinovskyi, Ekuban, and Messias, all of whom found the net to complete the comeback, resulting in a thrilling 3-2 final score.

Looking ahead, the next round of matches will feature Lazio facing Genoa and Bologna going up against Milan.

 Stats BEFORE the game



Bologna will be the ninth team that Genoa has faced at least 100 times in Serie A: currently, they have played 99 matches, achieving 27 wins, 35 draws, and 37 losses; additionally, the Ligurian team has scored more goals against only Lazio (147) and Torino (142) than they have against the Emilian team (125) in the top league.

After a streak of four positive results (2 wins, 2 draws) against Bologna in Serie A, Genoa suffered a defeat in the first leg last September, losing 2-1 at the Dall'Ara; this means the Ligurian team could experience a loss in both seasonal matches against the Emilian team for the first time since the 2017/18 season.

Bologna has managed to earn just one point from their last two away games (1 draw, 1 loss) at the Luigi Ferraris stadium in Serie A, following a successful run of five wins in the previous six matches (with only one loss) against Genoa and Sampdoria; furthermore, after the 2-2 draw in their last encounter with Genoa, the Emilian team could end up drawing two consecutive matches at this stadium for the first time since the 2013/14 season in the tournament (1-1 against Sampdoria and 0-0 against Genoa).

If we look at the standings since Daniele De Rossi took over as Genoa's coach (starting from matchday 11), Genoa would be sitting seven places higher in the table than they currently are (ninth instead of 16th), boasting the fifth-best attack in the league with 16 goals scored (behind Inter, Milan, Como, and Juventus, and tied with Fiorentina and Roma) and featuring nine different goalscorers: only Roma and Juventus have more (10 each).

Genoa remains unbeaten in the four matches (1 win, 3 draws) they have played in 2026 in Serie A. The Ligurian team could avoid losing in the first five matches of a calendar year in the top league for the third time in the last 60 years, following similar feats in 2009 and 2024.
