Fiorentina are all set to battle it out against Como for their round of 16 fixture of the 2025-26 Coppa Italia. This is going to be an entertaining fixture, taking place at the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
La Viola have performed decently in their last few matches, but the upcoming Italian cup contest is going to be a tough contest for them. They are coming in after facing a 1-2 defeat at the hands of Cagliari in their last league outing. Despite being at home, Fiorentina will be under pressure due to their last couple of performances against Como.
The Lariani have performed very well in their last two matches and will be keen to continue their winning run. They secured a dominating 6-0 win against Torino FC in their Serie A contest. Como 1907 have a capable squad, and despite being away from home, they will be fully confident.
Albert Gudmundsson will be looking to step up his game and help his side stand a chance against the Lariani. Even though he has not been in top form this season, he is still going to play an important role in the attacking front for Fiorentina. The 28-year-old has scored four goals and has three assists to his name.
Nico Paz has been in top form this season for Como and will be ready to yet again help his side. He can regulate the ball in the midfield and is also very capable of scoring goals. The 21-year-old has 14 goal contributions in 22 league games this season.
Fiorentina will miss out on the services of Fabiano Parisi and Tariq Lamptey. They are injured. Moise Kean is not yet ready to be a part of the squad.
Assane Diao will not be part of the squad for Como. He is injured. Alvaro Morata and Edoardo Goldaniga are also in doubt due to their fitness issues.
