Genoa pulled off a shock 2-1 win at the Allianz Stadium on Saturday, dominating possession and chances throughout. The visitors controlled the game with 61% of the ball and carved out ten attempts on goal compared to Juventus's six. It was a performance built on intensity and organization rather than luck—Genoa pressed high, won the ball back consistently, and made their chances count when it mattered. The home side never really got going and seemed to struggle with Genoa's aggressive setup from the first whistle. They grabbed a goal to get themselves back in it, but couldn't find an equalizer despite pushing harder as the match wore on. This was a disappointing result for Juventus in front of their own fans and raises questions about where they're heading, while Genoa will head home delighted with three points on the road.

Genoa beat Juventus 1-2 at Allianz Stadium, and the numbers from the match back up how the game played out. Even without the extra share of possession, which finished 39% in favour of Juventus, Genoa made the most of the chances that mattered and did enough to see the game out. The shot count told a similar story, with 6 attempts from Juventus against 10 from Genoa over the course of the game. Juventus had their moments and did not make it easy from start to finish, but ultimately came up short on the day. Small margins like this one tend to add up over a season, and results such as this are often what separates teams in the table further down the line. Here is a closer look at exactly how the two sides compared, statistically.
