&lt;p&gt;The last defeat dates back to two months ago, on 10 December against Monza. Since then, Genoa have started to put together positive results, obtaining three wins and five draws (including those against Inter and Juventus), distancing themselves from the lower end of the table.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now the idea is to continue the streak against Atalanta, which, however, after a slow start to the season, have taken off, obtaining three victories in the last three matches against Frosinone, Udinese, and Lazio, allowing them to take fourth place.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Genoa have remained unbeaten in their last eight league matches (W3 D5), while they are one of only three teams not to have lost since mid-December in the league (Inter and Milan being the others). Moreover, Genoa could record nine matches in a row without a defeat in Serie A for the first time since the period between October and December 2014, with Gian Piero Gasperini at the helm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Considering only the first halves of this season, Genoa would have 35 points, fewer only than Inter (54) and Milan (46) – analyzing only the second halves, Genoa would have 22 points, more only than Salernitana (19) and Empoli (20).On one hand, Genoa are the team that have conceded the most goals (five) in injury time in Serie A this season.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;On the other, Atalanta have scored four goals beyond the 90th minute, the joint-most of any side (tied with Bologna, Cagliari, and Roma).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Atalanta have remained unbeaten in 13 of their last 14 encounters against Genoa in Serie A (W9 D4): Genoa`s only win in this period against Atalanta dates back to December 22, 2018 (3-1 at Ferraris).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Atalanta have kept a clean sheet in their last three matches against Genoa in Serie A, while never have they recorded four consecutive clean sheets against Genoa in the top flight. Additionally, only against Pisa (four) are Atalanta currently on a longer active streak of matches without conceding in the tournament.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Albert Gudmundsson is the player who has scored the highest percentage of his team`s goals in Serie A 2023/24: 38% (9/24). After scoring 11 goals in Serie B 2022/23, the Icelander could become the first Genoa player to hit double figures of goals in two consecutive seasons since Diego Milito (second division in 2003/04 and 2004/05).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Charles De Ketelaere has been involved in 12 goals (seven goals and five assists) since the beginning of last December with Atalanta, more than any other Serie A player in the period across all competitions. After scoring a brace against Lazio, the Belgian could score in two consecutive matches for the first time in Serie A.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: De Winter (Genoa); Ederson (Atalanta)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: Retegui e Sabelli (Genoa); Zappacosta (Atalanta)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Colombo (Berti-Rossi L.)
