Match preview
Como approach this fixture in sensational form, having secured three consecutive victories with an aggregate score of 7:0. Cesc Fàbregas’ squad have hit their stride, peaking at the right time, and have not lost a single home match all season—making them a nightmare opponent, especially at home. The defensive stability in front of their own fans stands out: just three goals conceded in eight home fixtures.
Against Pisa, the "Larians" played without their optimal lineup, yet still claimed a confident win. Several key players are expected to return for the showdown with Bologna, which will only boost the team’s self-belief. A place in European competition is no longer just a dream, but a realistic target—especially if Como continue to collect maximum points against inconsistent opposition like Bologna.
For Bologna, January signals a crisis that has dragged on since December. Vincenzo Italiano’s team are winless in their last six league matches, and their most recent defeat to Atalanta (0:2) sounded the alarm—even for the coach himself. The word “crisis” was uttered publicly for the first time, and there’s still no clear roadmap out of it.
The defense has cracked—no clean sheets in the last ten games. Creativity and consistency are lacking in attack, and squad rotation has yet to yield results. Facing Como away, given this run of form, even scraping a draw will be a monumental challenge.
Probable lineups
- Como: Butez, Valle, Carlos Santos, Kempf, Smolcic, Caqueret, Perrone, Rodriguez, da Cunha, Vojvoda, Pas
- Bologna: Ravaglia, Posch, Vitik, Heggem, Miranda, Moro, Pobega, Rowe, Odgaard, Cambiaghi, Castro
Match facts and head-to-head
- Bologna are winless in their last six Serie A fixtures.
- Como have not lost a single home match this season.
- Since returning to Serie A, Como have never beaten Bologna.
Prediction
Como are currently one of the most balanced and confident mid-table teams. At home, the Larians deliver consistent performances and their defense is rock-solid. Considering Bologna’s current form, their attacking woes, and psychological instability, a home win looks like a highly realistic outcome.
