Como Confirm Sinigaglia as Champions League Home for Historic European Debut

Como 1907 have officially confirmed that Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia will host their home matches in the 2026/27 UEFA Champions League. The decision comes after the historic stadium completed a series of renovations designed to bring it in line with UEFA requirements. The announcement marks an important moment for the club as it prepares for its first appearance in Europe's biggest club competition.

Como secured their place in the Champions League at the end of the 2025/26 season under Cesc Fabregas. However, there had been uncertainty over where the team would play its European home fixtures, with the possibility of moving matches to another stadium previously considered. Mapei Stadium, the home ground of Sassuolo located roughly 200 kilometers from Como, had emerged as one potential alternative.

Those concerns have now been put to rest following the completion of the work at Sinigaglia. The renovation project included the construction of new stands, along with upgrades to infrastructure, security systems and operational facilities. These improvements allowed the historic venue to meet the standards required to welcome Champions League football.

The confirmation is especially meaningful for Como supporters, who will now be able to watch their club compete at the highest level of European football in their own city. Rather than travelling to a distant venue, fans can experience the club's landmark campaign at the stadium that has served as its home for generations.

Sinigaglia has been closely connected with Como 1907 for almost a century, making its role in the club's Champions League debut particularly significant. With the renovated stadium overlooking Lake Como ready to welcome European nights, Como can now look forward to a historic season while preserving the strong connection between the team, its supporters and its traditional home.
