In defense, the experience of Varane will be given space, paired with Dossena in the center, and Alberto Moreno on the left. Mazzitelli will dictate the tempo in the middle of the field, while Strefezza, Cutrone and Da Cunha will operate behind the striker Belotti.

The match at the Ferraris could be more balanced than expected. Como could in fact need time to let all the new signings settle in and could suffer against a Sampdoria that will instead be supported by its fans. However, both teams need to get their respective tactical mechanisms down and at that point the difference could be made by the individuals, to the satisfaction of the Larians.
