Me too! Unfortunately, when teams play against Juve, they raise their game. Genoa beat us last season. They had six players virtually stationed in their penalty area to thwart any attempt made to get the ball to a Juve attacker with the others ready to strike on the break. This worked for them and they will probably employ these tactics again.
Gasperini is an underrated coach, he will have an excellent plan to tactically minimize our advantage of having better players. This will be a real test of Ferrara's coaching and ability to employ his ideas

It will very interasting to see how we can fare with a formation like genoa's.
one one hand i dont know if our midfiled with a returning Melo and a tierd marchsio can cope with 5 man midfield. We dont have fullbacks for support so the offance might get choked.
We need a "in form" diego or a "up to the plate" Giovinco. dont think Del-piero will make it.
On the other hand Genoa are leathel on the counter, but it will be easier to defend against with this year formation then last season.
I will be dissapointed with 1 pt. cause i'm a juve fan.
If we will get overrun in the mid 1 pt. is realy all I could hope for.
I don't see that Genoa will make it difficult to us. The last season we lost because fucking Ranieri, now he's not here any more, so only a win can satify us.

However i also think this might be difficult match for us as Genoa will try harder cos of lost points in todays game.
I would be also happy with 1 point, but i would not mind if we get all 3
