Key player Genoa
Mexican Johan Vazquez has not yet been able to get minutes in the season, but at least in the last game he already jumped to the bench and because the defense has not been up to par, it is expected that soon he will be able to have more activity on the field.
Key player Bologna
Lukasz Skorupski is a good goalkeeper, however, he will have to work on his mental side after the six goals conceded, noting that previously in 270 minutes he had only conceded two goals.

Genoa: to win away from home
Genoa knows that this kind of matches are key for their permanence and against teams that are at their level they will have to rescue as many points as possible; they come from losing 1-2 at home against Fiorentina, but their only win of the season was away with a 3-2 victory over Cagliari.
Bologna: turning the page
Bologna did not even get their hands on the 6-1 drubbing they received against Inter Milan, which is why in this double-header they will have to turn the page quickly and do what they have been doing all season, remembering that in the first three games they had seven points.
The Kick-off
The Bologna vs Genoa match will be played at the Renato Dall'Ara Stadium, in Bologna, Italy. The kick-off is scheduled at 12:30 pm ET.
