Lazio vs Genoa: match statistics
Lazio presents solid home form with 45% clean sheets and a goal difference of +3 at their own stadium, constituting a significant advantage over Genoa. In away matches, Genoa concedes an average of 1.6 goals per game and achieves only 20% wins, which, given their poor defense (xGA 1.77), puts them in a difficult situation. Genoa's recent form is better (1.8 PPG), yet their away statistics remain worrying with a 40% loss rate. Lazio possesses a better shot conversion rate (11% vs 12%) and higher ball possession (50% vs 42%), which should translate into match control. Considering all factors, the hosts have a clear advantage, although Genoa's form in the last five matches and their attacking efficiency (FTS% only 10%) could make this a competitive encounter with a chance for a draw.
