John Yeboah - Back in starting lineup in Udinese tilt Yeboah generated two shots (zero on goal), two tackles (one won) and two chances created in Friday's 2-1 victory versus Udinese.

Impact Yeboah worked his back in the XI after Lion Lauberbach got the call in the previous two tilts and handled the ball a lot in the final third, but his stat line wasn't great. He has fired one or more shots in 12 straight matches, scoring once and notching 31 shots (eight on target), 14 chances created and 10 crosses (two accurate) in that stretch.

Akor Adams - Takes two shots against Udinese Adams recorded two shots (one on goal), three tackles (one won) and one cross (zero accurate) in Friday's 2-1 win against Udinese.

Impact Adams had a run-of-the-mill performance and was only slightly threatening with an attempt from downtown in the second half. He tracked back a lot, setting a new season high in tackles, while he snapped a five-game string with at least one chance created. Adams has scored once in his last five displays, adding 12 shots (seven on target), five key passes and one cross (zero accurate).

Thierry Correia - DNP in Udinese tilt Correia (thigh) wasn't deployed in Friday's 2-1 win versus Udinese.

Impact Correia recuperated from a thigh injury that cost him four matches but wasn't fielded right away, as he's not 100 percent. He'll challenge Pasquale Mazzocchi and Ridgeciano Haps and deputize Antoine Hainaut when fully fit, as he can play on both flanks.

Matias Moreno - Tagged with another own goal versus Udinese Moreno registered an own goal, 10 clearances and three blocks and drew one foul in Friday's 2-1 win versus Udinese.

Impact Moreno was saddled with his second own goal of the season due to a goofy deflection on a close-range shot that probably won't have gone in. He posted a new season in clearances and has put up at least two in eight bouts in a row, totaling 46 and adding 10 tackles (five won) and five shots (zero on target) over that span, with no clean sheets. Moreover, this marked his third straight outing with multiple blocks (10 total). Instead, Moreno ended a seven-game streak with at least one interception in this one.

Antoine Hainaut - Provides assist in Udinese game Hainaut assisted once to go with four shots (one on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and 10 clearances in Friday's 2-1 victory against Udinese.

Impact Hainaut bounced back from a quiet performance, led his team in attempts and deliveries, and found Toma Basic with a precise feed from the right flank on the opening goal, registering his second assist so far. Basic set a new season high in clearances and has notched at least one in every tilt, accumulating 40 and adding 15 shots (four on target), 15 key passes and 51 crosses (10 accurate) in that stretch. Moreover, this was his third game in a row with one or more interceptions (four total).

Kike Perez - Bags great goal against Udinese Perez scored one goal to go with one shot (one on target), three crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Friday's 2-1 victory against Udinese.

Impact Perez resumed starting after one match and decided the tilt with a gorgeous shot from distance, putting the ball in the top corner with a peculiar arc. It's his first goal this season. He has recorded one or more shots, amassing seven (three on target), at least one key pass, totaling 12, and one or more crosses, racking up 12 (five accurate), in five straight tilts. Additionally, this marked his tenth consecutive display with at least one tackle, for a total of 25 (12 won).

Toma Basic - Scores in Udinese clash Basic scored one goal to go with two shots (one on target), one drawn foul and one cross (zero accurate) in Friday's 2-1 win over Udinese.

Impact Basic returned to the XI after two matches and opened the scoring with a slick finish on a deep channel run, bagging his first goal this campaign. He also matched his season high in shots. This performance could help him get regular minutes over Gianluca Busio and Thorir Helgason. Basic has recorded seven attempts (three on target), six chances created and 11 crosses (two accurate) in the last six rounds (four starts).

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Filip Stankovic - Allows one goal against Udinese Stankovic registered five saves and two clearances and allowed one goal in Friday's 2-1 win over Udinese.

Impact Stankovic stepped up multiple times to deny dangerous shots, playing a key role in the win. He hasn't allowed more than two goals in five consecutive matches (five total), keeping one clean sheet and making 22 saves over that span. Up next, Venezia will face Juventus away on November 22.

Pasquale Mazzocchi - Assists before thigh issue Mazzocchi assisted the winning goal before being forced off with a left thigh problem in the 70th minute of Friday's win over Udinese, according to Gianluca Di Marizio.

Impact Mazzocchi had a strong night against Udinese on Friday. He assisted Kike Perez's winning goal in the 65th minute, but five minutes later he felt a problem in his left thigh and had to come off after treatment. Venezia will reassess him in the coming days, and the severity of the injury is still unknown. He started at left wing-back, and Ridgeciano Haps replaced him. If Mazzocchi misses time, Haps is the most likely option on that side.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Thierry Correia - Available for Udinese bout Correia (thigh) has been named in Venezia's squad list to face Udinese on Friday.

Impact Correia has shaken off a thigh problem that sidelined him for four matches and will resume competing with Antoine Hainaut, Pasquale Mazzocchi and Ridgeciano Haps on both flanks. He had started in three of six rounds before the injury, sending in at least one cross in every appearance, totaling seven (two accurate) and adding five shots (one on target), three chances created and two tackles (two won).

Gianluca Busio - Reclaims starting job in Como match Busio had one shot (zero on goal), one interception and one chance created and won one of two tackles in in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Como.

Impact Busio returned to the XI after a couple of months following a thigh injury and did a little bit of everything as usual. The relatively new coach has used a plethora of midfielders already, so he might have to split duties with Kike Perez, Thohir Helgason, Simon Sohm and Tomas Basic. Busio has recorded one or more tackles in all six outings, racking up 13 (three won), assisting twice and adding six key passes, 10 crosses (two accurate) and six corners.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Kike Perez - Operates off the bench versus Como Perez created three scoring chances and registered one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two interceptions in 35 minutes in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Como.

Impact Perez didn't get the call for the first time in the campaign, as the coach re-introduced Gianluca Busio after an injury and stuck with Thorir Helgason and Simon Sohm. However, he was still one of the most productive men for his club, leading it in key passes. Perez has posted at least one shot, totaling six (two on target), one chance created, accumulating eight, and one cross, piling up nine (three accurate) in the last three contests. Moreover, this was his ninth consecutive showing with one or more tackles, for a total of 23 (nine won).

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Juan Jesus - Causes PK in Como clash Jesus recorded two tackles (two won), five clearances and one interception and was yellow-carded in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Como.

Impact Jesus was okay again for the most part and filled the stat sheet, but he was beaten to the punch by Tasos Douvikas on a loose ball in the box, fouling the opponent in what ended up being the key turning point in the match. He has notched one or more clearances in seven straight fixtures, totaling 27 and adding 12 interceptions and four blocks over that span, with one clean sheet. Moreover, this marked his third appearance in a row with one or more tackles, for a total of six (four won).

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Akor Adams - Stifled by Como defenders Adams had one tackle (one won), one key pass and one clearance in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Como.

Impact Adams struggled to get open and didn't get many feeds, failing to take a single shot for the first time in the campaign after firing at least two in all the previous rounds. Instead, he has created one or more chances in five consecutive tilts, amassing eight, scoring once and adding two tackles (two won) and three clearances over that span.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Pasquale Mazzocchi - Swings in two crosses versus Como Mazzocchi (undisclosed) recorded two crosses (zero accurate), one clearance and one tackle (zero won) in Sunday's 1-0 defeat versus Como.

Impact Mazzocchi got another start despite bowing out early in the previous tilt and played the whole game for the first time in the season, but didn't put up stats on either end. He might have supplanted Ridgeciano Haps and Richie Sagrado, while Thierry Correia (thigh) is currently on the shelf. Mazzocchi has tallied two key passes, six crosses (one accurate) and three tackles (zero won) in four appearances so far.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Filip Stankovic - Beaten once against Como Stankovic registered three saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 defeat against Como.

Impact Stankovic had an excellent display considering the caliber of the opponents, as he conceded only on a PK and palmed away a pair of dangerous shots. He has kept one clean sheet, made 17 saves and surrendered four goals in the last four matches. Up next, Udinese will host Udinese on Friday.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Pasquale Mazzocchi - Fit for Como contest Mazzocchi (undisclosed) "will be available Sunday," coach Davide Nicola relayed.

Impact Mazzocchi asked to come out early midweek due to cramps and didn't require tests afterward. He'll be neck and neck to start with Ridgeciano Haps. He has featured in three matches thus far, notching one off-target shot, two key passes and four crosses (one accurate).

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Redouane Halhal - Tagged with own goal Halhal generated an own goal, three tackles (two won) and seven clearances in Wednesday's 2-0 loss to Inter Milan.

Impact It's unfortunate for Venezia to have not one, but two own goals on the day with Halhal being one of the culprits. He had some strong defensive stats overall but they don't nullify the own goal. Halhal will be busy again when Venezia face Como, a team that has scored 17 goals through nine matches to start the season in Serie A.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Matias Moreno - Concedes an own goal Moreno recorded an own goal, three tackles (one won), eight clearances and two interceptions in Wednesday's 2-0 loss against Inter Milan.

Impact Moreno's own goal was one of two Venezia gave up on the day, and the defender couldn't make up for it with strong clearance and tackle numbers. He will likely face similar pressure against Como, a team with 17 goals through nine Serie A games this season.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Antoine Hainaut - Struggles in service Hainaut registered one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 2-0 loss against Inter Milan.

Impact Hainaut did not have too much luck with his crosses, as only one was accurate. The midfielder is part of a struggling offensive operation at Venezia and that's likely to continue against a Como side that has only conceded eight goals in nine Serie A matches.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Filip Stankovic - Unlucky with two conceded Stankovic made two saves and allowed two goals in Wednesday's 2-0 loss versus Inter Milan.

Impact Both of Inter's goals were actually own goals for Venezia, so it's hard to fault Stankovic too much for this stat line. He did only have to make two saves, which is unlikely to be the case against Como. Como have 17 goals in nine matches and just ripped three in the final 10 minutes against Torino in midweek action to secure a late win.
