Lucas Da Cunha has been used on the right by Cesc Fabregas in recent weeks and it is in this position that the Como captain is expected to start when they make the trip to face RC Lens in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night.

The Serie A side, who beat Manchester United last time out in the Champions League, are without former Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah, whilst centre-forward Moise Kean is also out. Assane Diao is the third notable absentee for Como, who will look to continue their strong start to the UCL campaign. In three games, they have six points thanks to wins over Manchester United and RB Leipzig.

In the absence of former Paris Saint-Germain striker Kean, it is Anastasios Douvikas who is expected to lead the line tonight.
