A result here will immediately affect standings for both teams as the league moves into the latter stages of the season.
Nico Paz returns, Addai ruled out after training injury
Como will welcome back Argentine forward Nico Paz, the club’s top scorer with nine goals, who is available after serving a one-match suspension. That return comes as a blunt counterpoint to the injury suffered in the final moments of training by Dutch forward Jayden Addai, described as a "feather news" for the 20-year-old by coach Cesc Fabregas, who said the youngster had been making a strong start to his career.
Fabregas also framed the priority for the team clearly: after Como’s historic victory over Juventus in Turin, the coach emphasized that tomorrow’s league match must take precedence. "Now we are more mature and more used to playing against teams that fight up top or fight for survival, " Fabregas said, stressing the need to treat Lecce with humility regardless of league position.
Immediate consequences and the short-term calendar
A win for Como would reinforce their sixth-place standing, the slot that currently secures a berth in the next Conference League and keeps pressure on the clubs above them. Fabregas’ side sits one point behind Juventus in the table and has edged Atalanta on goal difference for sixth place.
For Lecce, a victory is critical to climb out of the relegation zone; the team arrives needing points to move up from 18th. The Saturday schedule this weekend also includes Napoli visiting Hellas Verona later and Inter hosting Genoa, with Como’s fixture opening the day’s slate of matches.
Looking ahead, Como will face Inter in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semifinal on Tuesday. That cup tie is already on the calendar, but Fabregas insisted the league match is the immediate focus: "Tomorrow we have to add three points, " he said.
The teams are on the pitch for warmups and the referee’s whistle will determine how both sides respond to their contrasting situations in the table.
