The Griffins return to Serie A action looking to bounce back from a narrow 1-0 defeat against Juventus as they host Udinese at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris on April 4, 2025.
Key Facts
- Genoa have won just one of their last five league games
- Udinese are winless in their last three matches
Match Preview
Genoa sit 12th in the Serie A standings, and although they are 12 points clear of the relegation zone, their recent form will be a concern for fans and management alike. With just one win in five, the Rossoblù will be eager to pick up three points at home.
Udinese, meanwhile, have also been inconsistent. After back-to-back wins, they’ve now gone three games without a victory. Their slump has left them vulnerable, and Genoa will see this as a winnable fixture.
Caleb Ekuban’s Chance to Shine
Ghanaian striker Caleb Ekuban has endured a frustrating campaign, scoring just once in 14 league appearances. However, he remains Genoa’s third highest-scoring forward—an indication of the team’s overall attacking struggles.
Facing an out-of-form Udinese side could be just the opportunity Ekuban needs to get back on the scoresheet and make a meaningful contribution to Genoa’s survival bid.
