Serie A 2025-2026: Sassuolo-Como, the likely lineups

The thirty-third day of Serie A opens Friday at 6:30 p.m. at the Mapei Stadium with the challenge between Sassuolo and Como 1907. The neroverdi, now quite far from the danger zone, aim to end the season with continuity and identity. On the other side, Como arrives with still high motivation and with the regret for the home defeat against Inter in the last round, a result that made Fabregas’ team slip to fifth place, overtaken by Juventus.

Grosso’s Sassuolo must give up Berardi and Doig, both disqualified. Coulibaly is expected to act on the defensive left flank, while forward the ballot to replace Berardi sees Volpato slightly ahead of Fadera. Up front Pinamonti is confirmed.

For Como, Fabregas considers some changes from the match with Inter. In defense, Smolcic returns from the first minute, with Ramon and Kempf in the middle. In attack, space is given to Douvikas, supported by Diao, Nico Paz and Baturina.

Probable formations

Sassuolo (4-3-3): Muric; Walukiewicz, Idzes, Muharemovic, Coulibaly; Thorstvedt, Matic, Koné; Volpato, Pinamonti, Laurienté. All. Grosso.

Como (4-2-3-1): Butez; Smolcic, Ramon, Kempf, Valle; Da Cunha, Perrone; Diao, Paz, Baturina; Douvikas. All. Fabregas.
