The opponents: Genoa

Mimmo Di Carlo’s ChievoVerona travel to face Marino’s Genoa side at the Ferraris ground.

Chievo came out 2-1 winners in their home game earlier this season against Genoa, coached at the time by Alberto Malesani: Pellissier gave Chievo the lead with Palacio equalising before Moscardelli scored a last-gasp winner.
Like Chievo, Genoa are looking to regain points after their last two games which saw them lose badly to Lecce (4-0), and fall to Atalanta in yesterday’s match. Genoa have the leakiest defence in Serie A, having conceded 43 goals.
The player who has notched up most appearances this season is goalie Sebastian Frey (23 matches with 2198 minutes), who is brother to Chievo defender Nicolas. Genoa’s top scorer is Rodrigo Palacio with a tally of 12 goals so far this season.
