Two clubs in opposite halves of the Italian Serie A table will do battle today in a league match between Genoa and Juventus. The first-division battle scheduled for 3:45 p.m. ET will be held at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris in Genoa and can be live streamed here free.
Despite leading the Serie A table by a whopping double-digit margin, Juventus travel to Genoa following a 1-1 draw to Fiorentina in the UEFA Europa League. With no midweek competition, Genoa have the added advantage of fresh legs. The Grifone’s Luca Antonelli is looking to do the impossible at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris later today (h/t to Goal). “We will try to make the impossible possible," Antonelli said. "The difference between the two sides in terms of value and our positions in the table is clear,” he added.
"[But] there is a fantastic vibrancy around the place and that could help us stop the Bianconeri.
Will Genoa achieve their goal, or will they falter much like the rest of the Italian clubs have? Tell us @SportsWN
