The Gryphons are among the few teams in the Italian league that kept their head coach from last season. In fact, there was no need for that. Alberto Gilardino did a great job, finishing in a respectable 11th place in his first year back in the elite division. Genoa also had one of the best defenses in the league, ranking seventh with only 49 goals conceded.

Genoa made several big transfers during the summer transfer window, including the sale of forward Mateo Retegui to Atalanta and goalkeeper Josep Martinez to Inter. They'll be replaced by striker Vitinha, who they got from Marseille, and goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini, who they got on loan from Atalanta.

The Nerazzurri won the previous championship with a clear advantage and are the leading contenders for the new draw. Before the season started, Inter played a few friendly matches. They won over Lugano (3:2), Pergokrema (2:1), and Las Palmas (3:0) but drew with Pisa (1:1) and Chelsea (1:1) and lost to Al-Ittihad (0:2).

The team is the same as last year, though there have been some additions. The visitors finally got Frattesi, Arnautovic, and Carlos Augusto; Piotr Zielinski from Napoli; and Josep Martinez as the second goalkeeper. They also signed Porto Mehdi Taremi as a free agent.

Genoa and Inter haven't changed much compared to last season, so we can use the data from the previous championship to choose bets for the upcoming match. So, in 13 out of 19 home matches, Genoa had a +2.5 corner kick advantage. The same is true of Inter's opponents, who held this head-to-head in 13 out of 19 away matches. On top of that, Genoa won both of their meetings with Inter last season from a corner kick advantage.
