Serie A official line-ups: Fiorentina vs. Como

It’s a battle of the Argentina talents when Franco Mastantuono and Nico Paz face off, but Moise Kean misses the clash with his old team as Fiorentina and Como go head-to-head.

It kicks off at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in Florence at 14.00 UK time (15.00 CEST).

Cesc Fabregas and his side are starting to deal with the pressures of European football, as they’ve managed just one point from the last two Serie A matches against Frosinone and 10-man Roma.

They also suffered their first Champions League defeat away to Feyenoord, where Assane Diao picked up a muscular injury that will rule him out for two to three weeks.

Kean is still out with that knee issue, so misses what would’ve been an awkward reunion with his former teammates.

Tasos Douvikas starts with support from Mattia Liberali and Nico Paz, while Lucas Da Cunha returns to the starting XI.

Fiorentina received a massive boost with the return of coach Paolo Vanoli, beating Venezia and holding Napoli to a 1-1 draw, but then fell back into old habits with a 2-1 defeat at Genoa.

Arthur Atta and Fabiano Parisi are still on the treatment table, but Mateo Pellegrino is preferred to Beto upfront, with Mastantuono eager to make a good impression against fellow Argentina international talent Nico Paz.
