Genoa vs Como Match Preview: Serie A Showdown

Match Context

Genoa host Como at Stadio Luigi Ferraris in Genoa on 26 April 2026, in Serie A Regular Season - 34. Genoa come into the round 13th on 39 points with a goal difference of -6, while Como sit 5th on 58 points and a +29 goal difference, pushing for Europa League qualification.

Genoa Availability

Genoa face this fixture with issues in wide and defensive depth.

  • M. Cornet (Thigh Injury) is sidelined.
  • B. Norton-Cuffy (Thigh Injury) is sidelined.

Both absences are confirmed as Missing Fixture, trimming options in the attacking and wing-back lanes. Creative outlet Aarón Martín, who has 5 assists from midfield, is available to start and remains a key supply line for the hosts.

Como Availability

Como also have notable concerns.

  • J. Addai (Achilles Tendon Injury) is sidelined.
  • Sergi Roberto (Muscle Injury) is doubtful.

The experienced Sergi Roberto’s uncertain status slightly disrupts midfield rotation, but Como’s main attacking weapons remain intact. Top scorer and creator N. Paz, with 12 goals and 6 assists, and fellow forward T. Douvikas, on 11 goals, are both available and represent a major threat.

Impact Summary

Genoa lose depth and direct running in wide areas through Cornet and Norton-Cuffy, but retain their principal creator Aarón Martín. Como, despite missing Addai and possibly Sergi Roberto, preserve the bulk of their attacking output through the available duo of N. Paz and T. Douvikas.
