Overview
- Cesc Fabregas said he requested and obtained a one-meter increase in the Sinigaglia’s width to help beat opponent pressure and maximize his wide attackers.
- The field now measures 105x66 meters, up from the Lega Serie A–listed 105x65 and still within acceptable variance from the 105x68 standard.
- Como have not lost at home this season, while multiple reports note Milan have yet to lose away, setting up a strong-form matchup.
- Kickoff is 20:45 CET at the Sinigaglia with exclusive coverage on DAZN, and odds show a tight market with Milan slightly favored (roughly 2.45–2.55 vs 2.80–3.00 for Como).
- Fabregas cited recent wing-focused signings (Diao, Jesús Rodríguez, Addai, Kuhn, Baturina) as part of the rationale and even floated further widening, while Massimiliano Allegri downplayed the impact of the change.
