Genoa
In the current season, Genoa feels relatively comfortable in the middle of the table. The team has secured victories against Roman teams and drawn with Napoli and Udinese. While defeats to Lecce, Torino, and Fiorentina have slightly marred their performance, overall, their start to the season can be considered satisfactory.
This season, Genoa has performed remarkably well against top teams. The Gilardino-led squad defeated Lazio, played to a draw against defending champions Napoli, and in the middle of the previous week, they handed a 4-1 defeat to Jose Mourinho's Roma. Currently, the club occupies the 14th position in the table, with standout forward Matteo Retegui representing the Italian national team.
Milan
Milan has gained momentum in recent matches and has even caught up with Inter at the top of the table. In their last weekend's match, the club comfortably defeated Lazio at home. The team has accumulated 18 points and currently shares the lead in the Serie A table with Inter.
In the UEFA Champions League, Milan's start has been mixed. Stefano Pioli's men first failed to defeat Newcastle at home and then played a goalless draw against Borussia Dortmund away. Both matches ended without goals scored.
