Como and Roma are set to meet in Serie A with four Argentine players in the spotlight, and the lineups already give the match its shape. Nico Paz and Máximo Perrone will start for Como, while Paulo Dybala and Nahuel Molina are expected in Roma's opening XI.
Paz arrives with momentum after the recent fecha FIFA, when he scored one goal in each of three matches for Selección Argentina. That run is part of why attention has settled on him now, with the game carrying a rare concentration of Argentine talent on both sides.
The buildup is not entirely symmetrical. Santi Castro will be on the bench for Roma, a reminder that even in a match framed by Argentine names, not every player linked to that storyline will begin it from the first whistle.
For Como, the presence of Paz and Perrone also fits the team directed by Cesc Fàbregas, and it leaves the match with a clear next step: a Serie A contest where the starting lineups are already telling part of the story before kickoff does the rest.
