Stefano Sturaro, who joined Genoa on loan from Juventus in January before the deal was made permanent, put the home side in front in the second half before fellow substitute Goran Pandev secured the shock result with 10 minutes remaining. However, the Portuguese was left out of the matchday squad for the trip to Genoa and Massimiliano Allegri's side were sluggish as Genoa took points off them for the second time this season, having drawn 1-1 in Turin in October. Juve had dropped points just three times this season going into the game, with draws against Genoa, Atalanta and Parma. Juventus thought they had gone in front after the break when Paulo Dybala swept home a finish, but VAR chalked the goal off for an offside in the build-up. Despite the result, Juventus remain 18 points clear of second-placed Napoli at the summit of the table, while Genoa climbed above Sassuolo into 12th place on 33 points.
