Leo Ostigard - Scores and assists in draw Ostigard scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and one chance created in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Fiorentina.

Impact Ostigard has now scored in his second consecutive Serie A match after a dominant performance against Fiorentina. He found the net with a well-timed header from an Aaron Martin cross and also added a simple assist for Lorenzo Colombo. While Genoa have struggled to keep clean sheets this season, Ostigard continues to provide an attacking aerial threat from center back.

Nicola Leali - Concedes two in draw Leali registered one save and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Fiorentina.

Impact Leali has now gone four consecutive Serie A matches without a clean sheet, managing just one save in Sunday's game. It would have been a good opportunity for a stronger defensive showing against a Fiorentina side averaging less than one goal per league match. Leali and the Genoa back line will look to regroup and respond after the international break.

Ruslan Malinovskyi - Serves suspension Malinovskyi completed a one-game ban in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Fiorentina.

Impact Malinovskyi will return against Cagliari on November 22 and will likely retain a major role under new manager Daniele De Rossi. Mikael Egill Ellertsson, who can feature in multiple roles in the midfield, replaced him in this one. Malinovskyi has created one or more chances in his last five showings, totaling nine and adding 10 shots (three on target), 11 crosses (five accurate) and nine corners and scoring once.

Jean Onana - Will skip Fiorentina match Onana (thigh) hasn't been selected for Friday's match versus Genoa.

Impact Onana picked up an injury in training and will be re-evaluated during the break. He has logged just 12 minutes so far, as he missed time shortly after joining, and there are several options ahead of him in the depth chart in the midfield. Genoa will be without him and Ruslan Malinovskyi (suspension), likely leading to more playing time for Morten Thorsby, Patrizio Masini, Nicolae Stanciu, Junior Messias and Albert Gronbaek.

Vítor Carvalho - Three shots in start Vitinha registered three shots (two on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Monday's 2-1 win over Sassuolo.

Impact After consecutive appearances off Genoa's bench, the team promoted Vitinha to its starting XI on Monday. He marked the occasion by tying his season high in shots and updating his season high in shots on goal, tripling the categorical tally from one to three.

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Lorenzo Colombo - Five shots in start Colombo registered five shots (zero on goal) in Monday's 2-1 win over Sassuolo.

Impact Colombo started all of Genoa's August and September games but logged zero starts in October. In November, he has returned to Genoa's starting XI and marked the occasion by updating his season high in shots. With zero goals this season, however, Colombo's position up front is on thin ice.

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Aaron Martin - Assist and nine accurate crosses Martin assisted once to go with 14 crosses (nine accurate) and six corners in Monday's 2-1 win versus Sassuolo.

Impact Martin's assist marks his first of the 2025-26 Serie A. Surprisingly, the most impressive part of his stat line is his nine accurate crosses, more than the seven he logged between August and October.

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Leo Ostigard - Scores goal Ostigard scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Monday's 2-1 victory against Sassuolo.

Impact Ostigard has been more consistently reliable defensively, backed up by his October, during which he recorded 26 clearances in three appearances. November is immediately a different story, as the center-back has commenced the month by getting on Genoa's scoresheet, something he had done only once in each of his last two domestic-league seasons.

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Nicola Leali - Three saves, one goal conceded Leali made three saves and allowed one goal in Monday's 2-1 win over Sassuolo.

Impact For a third consecutive appearance, Leali has logged multiple saves to compensate for at least one goal conceded. But unlike the previous two games, he did not allow multiple goals.

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Nicolae Stanciu - Unused against Sassuolo Stanciu (thigh) didn't play in Monday's 2-1 win over Sassuolo.

Impact Stanciu worked his way back from a thigh injury but didn't get minutes, as Patrizio Masini and Junior Messias were deployed off the bench over him in a tightly-contested affair. He'll have better chances of getting minutes against Fiorentina since Ruslan Malinovskyi is suspended.

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Ruslan Malinovskyi - Scores against Fiorentina Malinovskyi scored one goal to go with one shot on target, two key passes and three tackles (all won) and picked up his fifth yellow card in Monday's 2-1 win over Fiorentina.

Impact Malinovskyi took advantage of a poor rejection by the goalie on a corner kick and fired it home from the edge of the box for his first goal of the season. On the other hand, he'll have to miss Sunday's home game versus Fiorentina due to yellow-card accumulation. Patrizio Masini, Junior Messias or Nicolae Stanciu will substitute for him in the midfield.

New coach leads Genoa to first win of the season in Serie A

Genoa has finally won a Serie A game

NOVEMBER 3, 2025 • Associated Press

Nicolae Stanciu - Bench option Stanciu (thigh) is on the bench for Monday's match against Sassuolo.

Impact Stanciu was called up for Monday's match and has made his way to the bench for Monday's contest, no longer injured. He started in the first two games of the season before three straight appearances off the bench, likely to serve in a depth role. However, this is good news for the player, as he missed their past four games due to the injury.

Sebastian Otoa - Nursing muscular problem Otoa will sit out his second consecutive game Monday due to a muscular injury, Genoa relayed.

Impact Otoa was a late scratch for the midweek round and will remain sidelined a few days later. He has starred just once so far this season, coming off the bench in a game where Leo Ostigard was unavailable. Alessandro Marcandalli will be the main defensive backup without Otoa.

NOVEMBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Nicolae Stanciu - Called up for Sassuolo meeting Stanciu (thigh) has been named in Genoa's squad list to face Sassuolo on Monday.

Impact Stanciu was a late omission midweek, skipping his fourth fixture in a row, but he seems ready to return in this one. A recent coaching change could shake up the hierarchies and help him regain a role, as he had fallen out of favor in the three games before going down with a thigh injury.

Morten Frendrup - Active off bench in loss Frendrup had two shots (one on target), created one chance and made two tackles (one won), one clearance and three interceptions during Wednesday's 2-0 loss against Cremonese.

Impact Frendrup was brought as part of a double substitution just after the hour mark and was very active on both ends despite the fact that his team couldn't get a better result. This was the first appearance off the bench in the season for the versatile midfielder and the way he played could very well forced his way back to the lineup for upcoming games.

Vítor Carvalho - Logs eight crosses off bench Vitinha had one off-target shot, created two chances, sent in eight crosses (two accurate) and was shown a yellow card during Wednesday's 2-0 loss against Cremonese.

Impact Vitinha was brought as part of a double substitution in the 52nd minute and had a significant impact on his team's offense, creating a lot for teammates. The attacker may have lost his spot in the lineup recently but more performances like this one could get him back in contention for more starts.
