Argentina Talents Collide: Paz vs. Mastantuono
18 Oct
Summary
- Nico Paz and Franco Mastantuono, both Argentine talents, are set to compete.
- Moise Kean is unavailable for Como due to a knee issue.
- Assane Diao is sidelined for two to three weeks with a muscular injury.
The Stadio Artemio Franchi in Florence is set to host a compelling Serie A encounter between Fiorentina and Como. The match features a notable duel between young Argentine talents Nico Paz, representing Como, and Franco Mastantuono of Fiorentina. Como, under the management of Cesc Fabregas, is navigating a challenging period. They have secured only one point from their recent Serie A fixtures against Frosinone and 10-man Roma.
Adding to Como's concerns, they recently experienced their first Champions League defeat away to Feyenoord. During that match, Assane Diao sustained a muscular injury that will sideline him for an estimated two to three weeks. Moise Kean also remains unavailable due to a persistent knee issue, ruling him out of a potential reunion with his former club.
Fiorentina, led by coach Paolo Vanoli, has shown resilience with a victory over Venezia and a draw against Napoli, though a recent 2-1 loss to Genoa indicates continued inconsistencies. Despite Arthur Atta and Fabiano Parisi being unavailable due to injuries, Mateo Pellegrino is expected to start upfront, eager to impress alongside Mastantuono.
