Serie A official line-ups: Torino vs. Como

Como bring Nico Paz back into the starting XI with Tasos Douvikas and Martin Baturina for the trip to on form Torino, who have Che Adams and Giovanni Simeone upfront.

It kicks off at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino at 19.45 GMT (20.45 CET).

It has been a remarkable season for Como, who blew Manchester United away 4-1 in the Champions League and settled into fifth place in Serie A.

The extra commitment of European football has taken its toll on fitness levels, so Moise Kean, Mattia Liberali, Jesus Rodriguez, Assane Diao and Trevoh Chalobah have not made the trip.

That means Douvikas must remain upfront, ready to celebrate signing a new contract until June 2031.

Nico Paz was rested for the 2-0 victory over Sassuolo and returns here with Baturina and Maxence Caqueret.

Torino are on spectacular form and have won their last three matches in a row against Udinese, Parma and Monza.

Rolando Mandragora suffered a thigh injury and is out of action along with Niccolò Fortini, Ricardo Rodriguez and Franco Israel.

Summer signing Daniel Braganca therefore steps into midfield with Kian Fitz-Jim and Nikola Vlasic.

Adams is the strike partner for Simeone, with Alessio Cacciamani out wide on the left.
