Como v Lazio
📅
Kick Off: Thursday 31st October at 19:45
🏆
Competition: Serie A
Lazio head into this fixture brimming with confidence after a commanding 3-0 victory over Genoa last weekend. Como will be determined to defend their impressive home record this season and remain unbeaten at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia.
⭐ Como v Lazio Best Bets
Lazio have been in impressive form offensively this season, averaging 1.89 goals per match — the fourth-highest scoring rate in Serie A. While their away goal average dips to 1.25 goals per game, it’s worth noting that they’ve faced off against some of the league’s toughest defences on the road, including Juventus and Fiorentina.
Even with these challenges, their away games still feature an average of 3 total goals, indicating that Lazio’s style of play contributes to higher-scoring encounters regardless of the venue. This is backed by the fact eight of Lazio’s last nine games have contained three or more goals.
On the other hand, Como have struggled defensively this year, conceding an average of 1.78 goals per game — one of the league’s poorest defensive records. However, they’ve shown a capacity to contribute to the scoreboard as well, averaging two goals per game at their home ground.
The combination of Lazio’s reliable attack and Como’s defence suggests we’re likely to see goals here. Given both teams’ scoring potential and Como’s defensive weaknesses, backing over 2.5 goals at 1.95 offers solid value.

👕 Como v Lazio Predicted XI
🔍 Como v Lazio Players to Watch
⚪ Patrick Cutrone
Patrick Cutrone has been Como’s main attacking threat this season, leading the team with four goals and consistently testing goalkeepers. He’s averaging 1.23 shots on target per 90 minutes— 1.2 per game as he rarely misses a minute on the pitch. Given his role as the focal point of Como’s attack, Cutrone is highly likely to register at least one shot on target against Lazio this Thursday.
🔵 Alessio Romagnoli
Alessio Romagnoli should return to action after serving a one-match suspension following his red card against Juventus. Known for his assertive style of play, Romagnoli averages 1.28 fouls per 90 minutes this season, showing his tendency to challenge aggressively.
Back in the lineup and eager to make an impact, he’s likely to assert himself defensively, especially against Como’s spirited home attack. He will likely be coming up against Como’s winger Streffeza at points in this game who is crafty and draws an average of 2.6 fouls per game.
With odds at 2.1, this bet on Romagnoli committing at least two fouls is appealing given his track record and his likely direct opponents’.

💻 Como v Lazio Form and Tactics
Como come into this game with a mixed record, sitting in the lower mid-table and securing just two wins this season. However, they’ve shown resilience at home, remaining unbeaten at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia, where they average 2 goals per game.
Despite this home advantage, Como’s defence remains a concern, conceding 1.78 goals per match — their defensive record is among the league’s poorest. Offensively, Como rely heavily on their top scorer, Patrick Cutrone, who has been consistent in front of goal and will be central to any success Como can create in attack.
Lazio, on the other hand, have shown a clear contrast in performance between home and away games. At home, they’ve been strong, winning four out of five matches and remaining unbeaten. However, their away record is a different story, with just three points from four road games.
While some of these results can be attributed to facing tougher opponents, manager Marco Baroni will be keen to address Lazio’s away form and stabilize performances across different venues. This game presents an opportunity to break that pattern and build confidence away from home.
