Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Hellas Verona, 10th position with 42 points and a positive goal difference of +8
Genoa, 18th position with 22 points and a negative goal difference of -24
Hellas Verona won the Serie A Week 31 game defeating Genoa on Monday 4 April 2022 at the Marc’Antonio Bentegodi Stadium in Verona, Italy. Genoa’s dream with salvation is just becoming a nightmare remaining in the 19th position. Verona climbed to the 9th position reaching 45 points bypassing Sassuolo. For Blessin comes to the first defeat on the Genoa bench.
In the next round of the championship, Verona will visit Inter while the Ligurian will host Lazio. Following the defeat in their first Serie A home match against Genoa (1-3 in 1958), Verona have only lost one of their last 13 home matches against the Grifone in the competition (0-1 on 4th December 2017 under Pecchia): six wins for Hellas and six draws.

Hellas Verona opened the score in the 6th minute. Giovanni Simeone defeated Genoa goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. Arguably, it is an own goal by Vasquez.

✅ Stats before the game. Verona and Genoa have drawn each of their last three Serie A games (they have never drawn four games in a row in the Italian top-flight). Indeed, Verona have only won one of their last 11 league matches (D5 L5) against Genoa in the competition (2-1 on 12th January 2020). Verona got two draws and one defeat in their last 3 league matches and they have yet to go winless in four Serie A games in a row under Coach Igor Tudor. Since Alexander Blessin became Genoa manager (19th January 2022), the Rossoblù have kept six clean sheets in eight Serie A matches; in this period, only Real Sociedad (seven in nine games) have done better in the big five European Leagues. In fact, considering this same period, no team has conceded fewer shots on target than the Grifone in Serie A (22, level with Milan). Under Igor Tudor (14th September 2021 onwards), Verona have the second-best attack in Serie A (52 goals scored, only fewer than Inter, 53). Indeed, since Alexander Blessin joined Genoa (19th January 2022), Genoa have the best defense in Serie A (only two goals conceded).
👉 Lineup Hellas Verona (3-4-2-1): Montipò; Ceccherini, Günter, Casale; Faraoni, Ilic, Tameze, Lazovic; Bessa, Caprari; Simeone.
👉 Lineup Genoa (4-2-3-1): Sirigu; Hefti, Maksimovic, Vazquez, Frendrup; Sturaro, Badelj; Gudmunsson, Melegoni, Portanova; Destro.
