First up in the 2026/27 Serie A season for Genoa is a home game against the team that finished the previous campaign in second place. The visitors will be looking to get off to a good start as they bid to improve by lifting the title this time around. Napoli's new head coach Massimiliano Allegri will be hoping that securing the permanent signing of Rasmus Hojlund, who enjoyed himself on loan last term, helps Saturday's visitors to go one better. The hosts will also be looking to improve, and making the move of Lorenzo Colombo, who was arguably their best player last term, could help in that respect.
At early odds of +105, we can make a more than solid case for 'Both Teams to Score', which let's be honest, could easily be priced slightly shorter. -105 would be a fairer reflection. For starters, these two teams have a fabulous recent record of scoring goals against each other, with both teams notching in each of last season's two renewals, while both teams have now scored in each of the last eight Serie A matches between Genoa and Napoli. Such a record is not overly easy to ignore.

Our Genoa vs Napoli Prediction
With this being the start of a brand new campaign, we don't really know what to expect from either team. Time will soon tell how well equipped the pair are to deal with the various tests that a season in Serie A presents. What we do know, though, is that there are several reasons why 'Both Teams to Score' could be priced at odds shorter than +105, which is readily available at the time of writing (Thursday).
As touched on above, this is a fixture that simply has not disappointed in recent times in terms of goals, with both teams scoring in each of the last eight renewals. Last season, at Stadio Luigi Ferraris, we witnessed a highly entertaining game, a game in which both teams scored not once but twice. Let's hope for more of the same here.
