Genoa play Empoli at the Luigi Ferraris on Sunday in Serie A. Il Grifone suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to leaders Inter last weekend, thanks to a 78th minute winner from Lautaro Martinez, marking their 10th league loss of the season.

The hosts, who are 12th in the standings, had a poor start to the season, losing six of their first 10 games but have six wins and as many draws in their last 16.

Meanwhile, Empoli’s struggles continued last weekend, as they were on the receiving end of a 5-0 thumping from Atalanta, making it 11 games without a win in the league and 13 losses in 26 games.

Empoli, who have won just four league games all season, are in the relegation zone.
