Genoa-Napoli kick-off delayed

Genoa’s Serie A match against Napoli has been put back to 18.00 UK time on Sunday after goalkeeper Mattia Perin tested positive for COVID-19.

The Week 2 fixture was meant to begin at 14.00 UK time (13.00 GMT).

However, Genoa goalkeeper Perin has tested positive for the coronavirus.

It means a few more hours are allowed for the test results to come through, as the entire Genoa squad and staff have to undergo new swabs.

Only after those tests will the Genoa team travel to Naples on Sunday morning.
