Fiorentina, 19th on four points and conceding more than two goals a game in the league, host a Como side seventh on 11 and winners of four of the last five meetings between the clubs.

Como are the likelier winners, but 2.00 asks too much; the 1.29 for either team to win, 1.57 for both teams to score, 1.62 for Over 2.5 goals and 1.25 for a first-half goal all ask for more than the evidence supports. No quoted price is worth taking.

Context

Mastantuono has been a regular in Vanoli's attacking line and had Fiorentina's only first-half shot on target at Genoa. Keeping him available preserves the 4-2-3-1 the coach has been installing, but he will play with a stabilised hand and his hold-up play was criticised after 18 lost balls at Genoa. The update covers availability only; it does not settle whether he starts against Como.
- Franco Mastantuono suffered a fracture of the fourth metacarpal in his left hand during the Serie A match at Genoa.
- He had an outpatient procedure to reduce and stabilise the fracture and was expected back in team training from the following day.
- Fiorentina listed him as available for the next league game against Como on Sunday.
- Franco Mastantuono started 5 of the 5 recent team fixtures with available lineups, totalling 374 minutes across 5 appearances.

Kean left Fiorentina for Como in a €40m summer deal but has started only in patches behind Tasos Douvikas, so his absence changes little in the Como XI while removing the returning-forward angle from the Franchi. Fàbregas said he would again consider Jacobo Ramón as a makeshift centre-forward, the option used against Roma. The 10-day estimate points to this round, though it comes from the coach rather than a scan.
- Moise Kean joined Como from Fiorentina in the summer for a reported €40m total.
- Como coach Cesc Fàbregas said Kean would be out around 10 days with a tibia problem, ruling him out of the Roma match.
- Kean was not named in Como's squad for the Champions League trip to Feyenoord.

Fiorentina have conceded 14 goals in six games and sit 19th on four points, so Vanoli's reshuffle is a live selection question rather than routine tinkering. The 4-2-3-1 was introduced during the break and he is still working on a way to fix slow starts, which would move Mastantuono and the front three into new roles. The newspaper sketch is a working idea, not a confirmed XI.
- Paolo Vanoli took charge at Fiorentina in September 2026 after Fabio Grosso was dismissed following matchday three.
- Vanoli used the international break to implement a 4-2-3-1, according to Corriere dello Sport.
- Ahead of Como, Vanoli is studying a new formula to address Fiorentina's slow starts.
ReportedSources checked 14 Oct 2026, 01:38 · Europe/Bucharest
Como took their first European away trip to De Kuip in midweek, between the Roma draw and the Franchi, and the squad already lacked Kean, Addai and Caqueret. Fàbregas has rotated in Europe, so the Florence XI may differ from the weekend side that drew 0-0. The Rotterdam result was still unknown at the time of writing, which makes any rotation effect hard to fix in advance.
- Como's Champions League match at Feyenoord on 14 October was the club's first away fixture in European competition.
- Como opened their Champions League campaign by beating RB Leipzig 4-1 at home.
- Como play at Fiorentina on Sunday 18 October, four days after the Rotterdam trip.
