*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Como have enjoyed an excellent run of form recently, taking a league-high 10 points from their last four games, while their 3-0 win at Lecce last weekend saw them record three straight league wins for the first time since 1952.
Genoa have proven to be a tough nut to crack in recent weeks though, with only Lazio and Juventus getting the better of Patrick Vieira's men in the last two months, so despite their longer odds, the visitors cannot be discounted.

Most recent H2Hs: An even contest

Como preview: Seeking an unlikely top-half finish
Excellent recent form has lifted Como from relegation trouble to now being just four points off the top half, and they could end the weekend 11th if they take all three points here.
Como defender Alex Valle is set to join fellow Spaniard Sergi Roberto and Alberto Dossena on the sidelines after he was forced off in first-half injury time during their win over Lecce last weekend.
Predicted lineup: Butez (GK), Vojvoda, Goldaniga, Kempf, Alberto Moreno, Caqueret, Da Cunha, Ikone, Paz, Strefezza & Douvikas.

Player to watch: Anastasios Douvikas
Douvikas has made his first three starts for Como since joining in January in the Lariani's last three matches, and they have all ended in victory for Fabregas's men.
The Greek striker has played a part in that too, scoring twice in his last four appearances, dislodging Patrick Cutrone from the starting XI.
