2026-2027 Champions League: Feyenoord vs. Como—Probable Lineups and Where to Watch It on TV

After an exhilarating 4-1 victory in their all-time European debut against Leipzig, Como heads into its first Champions League away match with a bit less confidence but with the same determination to perform well. The Lariani will face a regular fixture in European competitions, Feyenoord, in front of the raucous crowd at De Kuip at 6:45 p.m. on Wednesday. The match will be officiated by a Lithuanian referee, 38-year-old Donatas Rumsas.

Cesc Fàbregas has to deal with a couple of results that fell short of expectations: the 2-0 away loss to Frosinone before the break and the 0-0 draw against Roma—despite having a numerical advantage from the 53rd minute onward after Malen was sent off—have dampened the team’s enthusiasm somewhat. Additionally, the unavailability of Moise Kean up front—which sparked an exchange of accusations between the Catalan coach and the national team’s medical staff—forces the team to make specific choices: Douvikas will be the focal point, supported by Diao, Nico Paz, and Baturina.

On the other side, on the bench, is Giovanni van Bronckhorst, for whom Fabregas served as a sort of successor—first at Arsenal and then at Barcelona—during his playing days. The Rotterdam club began its Champions League campaign with a heavy defeat at Barça (5-1) but has regained its composure in the league, winning 7-0 against Zwolle, 5-0 against Utrecht, and 2-0 against AZ, maintaining their lead at the top of the Dutch league. Shaqueel van Persie, following in his father’s footsteps, is unavailable; up front, Ferri, Hadj Moussa, and Valente will start.

As for the live broadcast, Feyenoord vs. Como will be shown on Sky Sport via its satellite platform and NOW’s streaming channels, with pre- and post-match studio coverage.
