Juventus vs Genoa
Italian Serie A.
Date: Saturday 20 October 2018
Kick-Off: 17:00 UK,
Venue: Allianz Stadium (Turin).
Juventus may be without Dybala, who is a minor doubt through injury. The Argentine sustained a knee injury while on international duty for Argentina against Brazil, but despite it not appearing to be serious, he will undergo further tests. However, the 24-year-old could be rested for the match, ahead of the Bianconeri's crucial Champions League encounter against Manchester United.
Potential Lineups
Juventus (4-3-3): Szczęsny; Cancelo, Bonucci, Chiellini, Alex Sandro; Bentancur, Pjanić, Matuidi; Dybala, Mandžukić, Ronaldo.
Genoa (3-4-1-2): Radu; Biraschi, Spolli, Criscito; Pereira, Sandro, Hiljemark, Lazović; Medeiros; Kouamé, Piątek.

Juventus vs Genoa: Prediction
Juventus have not fired blanks against Genoa at home since January 1991 and it’s hard to see them slipping up here. Piatek, of course, will hope to continue his hot streak. But he will be up against one of the strongest defenses in Europe and it will be an interesting match – pitting the player who’s scored in every game against the team who has won every game.
The Bianconeri surely will come out on top here, but will they be able to keep a clean sheet?
