🎁 Como continue to impress with their home performances, consistently finding the net and conceding in nearly every match. Despite holding the 12th spot in the table, they display confident play with five wins in their last ten outings. Their style is built on attacking moves and ball control, allowing them to create numerous chances in front of the opposition's goal. 

In the previous round, Como secured a convincing 3-0 victory over Lecce. The match hero was Assane Diao, who scored twice, while defender Edoardo Goldaniga also found the net. This marked their third consecutive win, enabling them to pull 14 points clear of the relegation zone and virtually secure their Serie A status. After this victory, Cesc Fabregas mentioned that even during a run of three straight defeats, he didn't alter his approach to the team. According to him, regardless of the opponent-be it Juventus or Fiorentina-the idea and playing philosophy remain unchanged. The coach emphasized that stability and gradual team development are his main priorities.

However, the team faces significant personnel issues. Máximo Perrone will miss the match due to suspension, Assane Diao is out for the season with a broken leg, and Alberto Dossena is recovering from an ACL injury, expected to return only by October. Sergi Roberto is sidelined until early May with a muscle injury, and Alex Valle remains doubtful due to physical discomfort.

The visitors last played an official match on as part of the Serie A tournament (the hosts were Genoa, and the visitors were Lazio Rome). The match concluded with a scoreline of 0:2.

🎉The "Griffins" sit just below their opponents in the standings, but they are known for their resilience on the road. However, recent results have been less than inspiring for their fans, with only three wins in the last ten matches highlighting the team's struggles away from home. Nonetheless, Genoa's players excel at compact and organized defending, allowing them to play defensively even against stronger opponents.

In the 33rd round, Genoa fell to Lazio with a 0-2 defeat at home. The team has managed just one victory in their last four matches, collecting only four points during this stretch. This has negatively impacted their standings, leaving them perilously close to the relegation zone. Patrick Vieira stated that they urgently need to find ways to improve their game. According to him, while the team is playing decently, it's not enough to secure positive results.

Regarding the lineup, the team will be without Sebastiano Otoa due to suspension, and Fabio Miretti is out for the season with a shoulder injury. Alan Maturo and Ruslan Malinovskyi are sidelined until early May, while Caleb Ekuban, Hugo Cuenca, and Maxwel Cornet are doubtful. Mario Balotelli is also out with a broken hand. These absences affect all areas of the squad and significantly complicate their task in the upcoming matches.
