Napoli vs Como prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - Oсtober 4, 2024
In the seventh round of Serie A, a match will take place between Napoli and Como. The game is set to take place in Naples on Friday, October 4, with kickoff scheduled for 18:30 Central European Time. The following prediction has been provided by Dailysports experts.
Napoli
The start of Serie A has been somewhat surprising overall, and Napoli was directly impacted by a crushing defeat to Verona in the first round.
Since then, the performance of Antonio Conte's team has improved with each match, and now Napoli has climbed to the top of the standings. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Romelu Lukaku are in excellent form, scoring nearly half of the team's goals between them.
Como
Before the season started, many quickly labeled Como as a clear underdog, but after a modest start, the team has already won two matches in a row.
Cesc Fabregas squad has notable defensive issues, but their attack looks solid. Interestingly, it's not star player Andrea Belotti leading the way, but rather Patrick Cutrone.
Match facts
- Napoli is unbeaten in their last six matches.
- In Como's last three games, they have both scored and conceded at least two goals.
- Napoli averages 3 goals per game at home, while Como averages 1.3 goals per game on the road.
Probable lineups
- Napoli: Caprile, Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Buongiorno, Olivera, McTominay, Lobotka, Anguissa, Kvaratskhelia, Politano, Lukaku.
- Como: Audero, Moreno, Dossena, Kempf, Van der Brempt, Perrone, Sergi Roberto, Fadera, Strefezza, Pas, Cutrone.
Head-to-head
Como has the upper hand in head-to-head meetings, with three wins compared to two for Napoli, and one draw.
Prediction
Napoli were the clear favorites, boasting a stronger squad. It's doubtful that Como will be able to put up much of a fight, so I'm predicting a win for the home team.
