Genoa - Como

Genoa enter this matchday 3 encounter looking to stabilise their campaign after a challenging start to the Serie A season. Following a convincing Coppa Italia victory against Ascoli Calcio 1898 FC, the side has endured back-to-back league defeats against SSC Napoli and Lazio. With Lorenzo Colombo and Vitinha expected to lead the attack, the hosts are aiming to find their rhythm early in the term. Conversely, Como arrive at Stadio Luigi Ferraris carrying significant momentum. After securing a hard-fought draw against Udinese, they claimed an impressive win over SSC Napoli on 30 August 2026.

This fixture serves as a chance for Genoa to rewrite their recent history against the visitors. Como enjoyed success in their previous meeting, recording a 2-0 victory on 26 April 2026. With Anastasios Douvikas and Nico Paz expected to feature in the starting XI, Como will look to maintain their unbeaten start to the league campaign. As both sides converge on Friday, 4 September 2026, the focus shifts to whether Genoa can break their current deadlock or if Como will continue their ascent in the standings.
