Juan Miranda - Sends in eight crosses against Napoli Miranda had one shot (zero on goal), seven crosses (zero accurate), one clearance and two corners in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Napoli.

Impact Miranda got the nod despite playing most of the midweek's Europa League game, where Charalampos Lykogiannis was sent off early, and had plenty of room to attack, leading his team in deliveries, but his touch left a lot to be desired. He notched a season-high three key passes in back-to-back matches. He has launched multiple crosses in all but his first shot appearance, racking up 54 in 10 matches (six accurate), logging 29 corners, 11 tackles (five won) and 22 clearances over that span and contributing to two clean sheets. He has yet to find an assist despite his exuberance on the wing.

It's his fourth assist in the season, and has has dished out two in the last three matches. He has put up at least one shot and one cross in nine straight showings, racking up 12 (five on target) and 24 (six accurate), respectively, adding two goals, three assists, and eight chances created over that span. He's occasionally managed, but he's clearly more effective than Jonathan Rowe (thigh) and Benjamin Dominguez in his role.

Impact Rowe got hurt late in the first half and gutted it out for a few minutes to make it to the interval. He's set for tests. He generally plays second fiddle to Nicolo Cambiaghi. Benjamin Dominguez is also an option on the left wing.

Impact Lykogiannis was sent off for a high-legged tackle and won't be available against Red Bull Salzburg on November 27.

He has notched five shots (one on target), three key passes, 27 crosses (four accurate) and 11 corners in his last five showings, with one clean sheet and no goal contributions.

Riccardo Orsolini - Takes seven shots in win Orsoloni had seven shots (one on target), created two chances, sent in four inaccurate crosses and made three clearances during Sunday's 3-1 win over Parma.

Impact Orsolini bounced back from a pair of quiet performances and, despite not scoring, was one of his team's biggest threats, posting a season high in shots attempted. With five goals over 10 Serie A appearances, the forward couldn't add to his account but more games like this will certainly have him finding the back of the net a lot of times.

Lukasz Skorupski - Allows one in win Skorupski made zero saves and conceded one goal during Sunday's 3-1 win over Parma.

Impact Skorupski was beaten in the first minute of the game in a close-range finish and then had very little work during the rest of the way as his side dominated the opposition en route to a come-from-behind win. This has been a campaign with some ups and downs for the goalkeeper but he still can be seen as a net positive from a fantasy perspective, with two clean sheets over the last four league starts and just eight goals allowed over nine appearances overall.

Nicolo Cambiaghi - Logs assist off bench in win Cambiaghi made an assist, had one off-target shot, created two chances, drew three fouls and was shown a yellow card during Sunday's 3-1 win over Parma.

Impact Cambiaghi was brought late in the game this time, taking the pitch as part of a double substitution in the 82nd minute, but he still found time to make an impact as he assisted Juan Miranda for the goal that sealed the 3-1 win during stoppage time. That's now two goals and two assists over the last five league appearances for the forward, who should be back in the lineup for upcoming games.

Juan Miranda - Scores in win over Parma Miranda scored a goal off his lone shot and sent in four crosses (one accurate) during Sunday's 3-1 win over Parma.

This was the first goal of the season for Miranda, who's still in a out of the starting XI after a slow start of campaign.

Emil Holm - Logs assist in win Holm delivered an assist, sent in six crosses (two accurate), made two tackles (both won), six clearances and one block and drew three fouls during Sunday's 3-1 win over Parma.

Impact Holm returned to the team after serving a one-match ban and had another great two-way performance as he assisted Santiago Castro for Bologna's first goal and then was simply dominant on the defensive end. Between injuries and suspensions, the right-back is still to have a significant sequence as a starter but he always delivers when playing from the opening whistle, with one goal, three assists, 15 crosses, 12 tackles and 19 clearances over five games.

Santiago Castro - Nets brace in win Castro scored two goals off five shots (three on target), created two chances and was shown a yellow card during Sunday's 3-1 win over Parma.

Impact Castro had a man-of-the-match performance here, not only because of the two goals he scored to lead Bologna's come-from-behind win, but for being involved in many other dangerous plays throughout the contest. That's now three goals over the last two starts for the forward and that definitely helps his chances to become an undisputed first choice up front.
