Genoa ended a three-game winless streak over the weekend with a victory over Salernitana as they turn their attention to the cup. Il Grifone are aiming to make the Round of 16 for the fifth straight season.
Reggiana lie in their path. Alessandro Nesta's side have had a decent start to life in Serie B following their promotion last term. They will be unfazed at the prospect of facing Serie A opposition in the cup, having eliminated a top-flight team in the last round.
However, expect Genoa to claim a narrow win and also keep a clean sheet.
