Como vs Sassuolo: Match preview
Como have shown significant progress in recent seasons and have made a confident start to the new league campaign. The team beat Lazio 2-0 and Fiorentina 2-1, drew 1-1 with Genoa, and suffered a narrow 0-1 defeat to Bologna. With seven points from four matches, Como currently sit eighth in the table. In the Coppa Italia, they already navigated the first round, defeating Südtirol 3-1. It’s worth recalling that last season Como were knocked out at the Round of 64 stage, but this time they have a solid chance to go further.
Sassuolo returned to Serie A after winning Serie B last season, amassing 82 points in 38 games. However, their comeback to Italy’s top flight has been challenging, as points have been hard to come by. They lost their first two matches to Napoli (0-2) and Cremonese (2-3). In the third round, Sassuolo pulled off an upset by beating Lazio 1-0, but then suffered another defeat, falling 1-2 to Inter. In the Coppa Italia, they have already advanced past Catanzaro with a 1-0 victory. Last season, Sassuolo reached the Round of 16 but lost 1-6 to Milan.
