&lt;p&gt;Genoa are set to host Lazio in an 18:00 CEST kick-off at the Marassi. The Rossoblù have lost just one of their last six matches to virtually secure their Serie A status, and they want a victory in front of their home fans to boost their chances of finishing in the top ten.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, Lazio, who drew 1-1 in the derby last week, need points to continue their pursuit of a Champions League place.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After a run of eight consecutive victories in Serie A, Genoa have won only three of their last 17 games against Lazio in the top-flight, losing 11 (D3); only against Juventus, Roma and Inter have the Ligurians suffered more defeats (12 against all three) in this period in the competition (since 2015-16).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the last 10 Serie A seasons (since 2015-16), Lazio have scored 39 goals in 17 games against Genoa; an average of 2.3 goals per match: a record for the Biancocelesti against a single opponent over this period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Genoa have lost four of their last six home games (W1 D1) against Lazio in Serie A, including the two most recent ones, as many defeats as those suffered by the Ligurians against the Biancocelesti in the previous 12 home matches (W4 D4).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since Patrick Vieira’s arrival (from MD13), Genoa have won 29 points in 20 games (W7 D8 L5) and would be ninth in the standings - in the era of three points for a win (since 1994-95), the Frenchman is the Genoa coach with the highest points average (1.45 per match) in the competition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In 2025, Genoa are one of the six teams unbeaten at home in Serie A, thanks to five wins and one draw: as many wins by the Rossoblu as in their 23 previous home matches (D11 L7). Indeed, in this period, the Ligurian team have conceded the fewest goals at home (2).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lazio won their last league away game against Atalanta without conceding (1-0) and they could win two consecutive away matches without conceding for the first time since their last two games on the road of the 2022-23 season under Maurizio Sarri.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All three of Fabio Miretti’s goals in this Serie A campaign have come in home matches. The Genoa midfielder has also provided three assists, as many as he had delivered across the 2021-22 to 2023-24 seasons combined. Among midfielders with at least three goals and three assists in the Italian top-flight this season, only Nico Paz (born in 2004 – 6 goals, 5 assists) is younger than him.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alessio Romagnoli`s first goal and first red card in Serie A both came against Genoa, in March 2013 with Roma and in September 2015 with Milan; the Lazio defender has scored twice in his last four games - as many as in his previous 95 matches in the competition - and he could find the net in two consecutive games in the competition for the first time since October-November 2018, with the first of those two goals coming against the Ligurians.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: Isaksen (Lazio).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: Thorsby (Genoa); Zaccagni, Belahyane, Baroni (Lazio)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AYROLDI (DI GIOIA – MORO) IV: COSSO, VAR: PATERNA, AVAR: FABBRI&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPCOMING MATCHES IN SERIE A&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Como-Genoa (Saturday 26 April, 15.00 CEST)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lazio-Parma (Saturday 26 April, 20.45 CEST)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;
