Juventus lost to Napoli in the final of the Coppa Italia last season and will be hoping to win the trophy this season as they lock horns against Genoa in the round of 16. The Coppa Italia fixture is set to be played at the Allianz Stadium on Thursday, January 14 with the match kicking off at 1:15 AM according to IST. Let's have a look at the Juventus vs Genoa live stream, playing 11, team news, and other details of this Coppa Italia match. 


Juventus are currently slotted 4th in the Serie A table as they have managed to register 9 wins from 16 games. With 33 points to their name, they are pretty much still in the race and are considered as title contenders. The hosts walk into the match following a comfortable 3-1 win against Sassuolo in their last Serie A outing as Danilo, Aaron Ramsey, and Cristiano Ronaldo found the back of the net for Juventus.

With just 14 points from 17 games, Davide Ballardini's men have really struggled this season and will be hoping to avoid being relegated. The visitors need to find some consistency in their performances as their campaign progresses.

Juventus vs Genoa prediction

Despite not being at their best, Juventus are always a force to reckon with. Cristiano Ronaldo has been in red hot form as the Portuguese has already scored 15 goals in the Serie A. Genoa will have to find a way to restrict Juventus' firepower up front otherwise they will face a lot of trouble from the hosts. Pirlo’s men start the match as favourites and will likely walk away with the win.

Prediction: Juventus 2-0 Genoa
