The next Serie A match between Genoa and Juventus, scheduled for Wednesday at the Marassi, is already the subject of speculation about the lineups. Genoa, waiting to confirm the tactical structure, could opt for a three or four line defense, while Juventus, under the guidance of Luciano Spalletti, seems to prefer the 3-5-2.
For Genoa, the most discussed choice concerns the midfield and defense. Defender De Rossi remains suspended due to injury, leaving open the question of whether to maintain the three-back configuration or return to four. Left back Marcandalli could be inserted next to Ostigard, while Vasquez is a candidate for the left role. In the centre, Traoré is being evaluated, with the possible inclusion of Amorim next to Frendrup, who will return to the pitch from the first minute. On the right side, Elertsson could occupy the wing, with Vitinha on the left, while the attack remains open to Osmajic, Messias, Baldanzi and El Shaarawy, all ready to play as starters.
Juventus, on the other hand, seems to have defined their lineup. Goalkeeper Vicario is confirmed, while the defense is made up of Gatti, Bremer and Lucumì. The midfield will be led by Kalulu on the right, with Koopmeiners, Douglas Luiz and McKennie in the centre, and Cambiaso on the left. In attack, Woltemade is confirmed, but Kolo Muani will remain out for a rest session. Near Woltemade, the choice is between Boga and Alajbegovic.
Genoa, who have shown recent injuries, may have to rely on reserve players to cover key positions. Juventus, on the contrary, seems to have a more stable department, with most of the starters ready to play. Fans' attention will be on how Spalletti manages the defense and midfield, and whether De Rossi can return to match fitness.
With the match scheduled for Wednesday, both teams are preparing for a match that could have repercussions on the standings. Genoa will look to capitalize on their familiarity with Marassi, while Juventus aim to consolidate their position at the top of the table. The results of this match will be fundamental for the future strategies of both teams.
