&lt;p&gt;With the midweek draw against Dortmund stored away in the archives, AC Milan now turn their attentions to a visit to the Marassi to face Genoa and continue their good form in the league. So far, they have picked up 18 points, their third best start ever to a Serie A TIM campaign after seven game in the three-points-for-a-win era, just one behind the 19 earned both in the 2021/22 and 2003/04 seasons.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Also, newly-promoted Genoa are doing well, coming into the game off the back of a 4-1 home win over Roma and a 2-2 draw in Udine, which left them slightly disappointed. On the last nine occasions that Genoa have collected at least eight points in their opening seven Serie A games (last time in 2018/19), they have always stayed up. The last time they went down after having started the season in this way was back in the 1994/95 season.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FUN FACTS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan’s last five league defeats have all come on the road. From February onwards, their last loss outside of Milan (therefore excluding the derby) came in Liguria – a 2-0 defeat at Spezia on 13 May 2023.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PREVIOUS MEETINGS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan have won seven of their previous nine Serie A TIM meetings with Genoa (1D, 1L), and the last three. Over that time, they have scored at least twice seven times.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the last five Serie A TIM games played between the two sides at the Ferraris, the Rossoneri have come out on top four times, with one draw. The last Grifone victory in the league was back on 25 October 2016, with Juric in charge, a 3-0 win with goals from Ninkovic, Pavoletti and an OG from Kucka.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Albert Gudmundsson and Mateo Retegui have both netted three times in this season’s Serie A TIM: the last time Genoa had two forwards with at least three goals at this stage of the season in the league dates all the way back to the 1977/78 season (Roberto Pruzzo and Giuseppe Oscar Damiani).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan are the only side in Europe’s top-five leagues in 2023/24 to have two players with both three goals and three assists (Olivier Giroud with four goals and three assists, and Rafael Leão with three goals and three assists).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Among midfielders with at least 100 minutes of play under their belt this season in the league, Yacine Adli has the best average for successful passes completed over 90 minutes (average of 77% in 128 minutes played).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: no player&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: Theo Hernandez (AC Milan)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Piccinini (Liberti and Dei Giudici as assistants).
