- N. Fortini (Back Injury) is doubtful.
- M. Kean (Calf Injury) is doubtful.
- R. Piccoli (Muscle Injury) is doubtful.

Impact Summary
Fiorentina, with only 38 league goals so far, are heavily reliant on M. Kean’s output, so his doubtful status significantly reduces their attacking ceiling. Genoa, on 40 goals, lose creativity and depth with Junior Messias sidelined and two further attackers/midfielders doubtful, potentially limiting their ability to exploit Fiorentina’s defense.
