Sebastian Otoa - Picks up ankle injury Otoa will miss Sunday's fixture versus Torino because of an ankle problem, Genoa announced.

Impact Otoa will be re-evaluated ahead of the ensuing contests, although he was a late call for this one, so the problem might not be too severe. He has been the top defensive deputy lately, but hasn't been needed and has played just once in the last six rounds. Nils Zatterstrom will be bumped up in the hierarchy without Otoa.

Genoa will face Cremonese away next Sunday in the next round.
