Como look set to continue their excellent form in Serie A with a confident performance against struggling Genoa, whose scoring issues persist under Daniele De Rossi. With strong away results and solid defensive displays, Como, led by Cesc Fabregas, are favored to collect another win. Genoa, languishing in front of goal and under management pressure, may pose little threat. The recommendation is to back Como for the victory.

Genoa’s poor form has continued this season with Daniele De Rossi under increasing pressure. Como have no such issues, are likely to control this match and pick up another win in Serie A.

Key Stats


  • Genoa have failed to score in 6 of their last 7 matches (Serie A).
  • Genoa have lost to nil in their last 4 Serie A matches.
  • Como have won to nil in 2 of their last 3 games against Genoa.
  • Como have won 4 of their last 5 away matches (Serie A).

HTH


Genoa haven’t beaten Como since 2004, holding onto a narrow 10-9 advantage alongside 14 draws.

Scoring Woes for Genoa


Genoa had a poor end to the previous Serie A campaign, scoring once in five games. Their scoring difficulties have continued into the current season.

Daniele De Rossi’s side lost 2-0 against Napoli followed by a 1-0 defeat at Lazio. Just three shots on target were created in those two games, earning a total of 1.09 xG.

The only piece of positivity came in the Coppa Italia. Falling behind against Serie B side Ascoli, Genoa scored four unanswered goals to earn a 4-1 victory.

Como Join the Elite in Italy


Como are on the rise in Serie A, finishing fourth last season and proving their worth against the established clubs in Italy.

Cesc Fabregas’ side have been given a tough start to the new campaign, their first three fixtures coming on the road.

The Lombardy club drew 1-1 at Udinese where the result was deserved. Martin Baturina registered a goal and an assist in a 2-1 victory at Napoli on Sunday, a result that will provide plenty of confidence.

Predicted Lineups & Team News


Genoa (3-4-3) Justin Bijlow; Alessandro Marcandalli, Leo Ostigard, Johan Vásquez; Mikael Egill Ellertsson, Morten Frendrup, Djibril Sow, Mario Mitaj; Tommaso Baldanzi, Lorenzo Colombo, Vitinha

Brooke Norton-Cuffy has been sold to Hull which opens the door for Mario Mitaj to start at left-back.

Como (4-2-3-1) Jean Butez; Yan Couto, Jacobo Ramón, Trevoh Chalobah, Álex Valle; Luis Milla, Lucas da Cunha; Assane Diao, Nico Paz, Martin Baturina; Tasos Douvikas

Fabregas is unlikely to make any changes here. Goalkeeper Robert Sánchez has been signed on loan from Chelsea to put pressure on Jean Butez.

Jayden Addai is gone for the season after suffering an achilles tendon rupture.

Verdict

Como are doing everything right on and off the pitch and Genoa are becoming relegation candidates. I am sticking with Cesc Fabregas’ side who can keep up the pace in Serie A.
