Lazio seek a return to the Champions League and need a win against Genoa on April 21, 2025 to inch closer. Africa Foot expert Bill Eshun looks into the upcoming battle in Serie A.
Key Facts

Genoa vs Lazio Match Overview
Lazio are coming off a shock defeat to Bodo Glimt in the UEFA Europa League quarter finals, leaving the side just the Serie A to focus on. The visitors lie in 6th with 56 points, just three points behind the top four.
Genoa on the other hand haven’t finished in the top half of the league table in over a decade. With 39 points so far, just one behind 10th placed Torino, that dream could be a reality.
Ekuban’s drought a worry
At the end of last season, Caleb Ekuban netted four goals in Serie A. The story has been different this time with just one goal in 16 outings.
Despite scoring just once, he’s recorded three assists, a bigger tally than last season. There’s still some time for the Ghanaian to increase his numbers in front of goal.
