Inter’s quest to climb back to the top of Serie A continues, while Como fights to avoid relegation. Both teams find themselves at a crossroads, each desperate for three points to advance their respective goals. Inter is just six points behind Atalanta, with a game in hand, while Como sits only one point above the relegation zone, though they have a match less to play. This makes for a critical encounter, with both sides eager to secure a vital win.
Inter Team News
The Nerazzurri will host Como on the back of two consecutive victories—one against Udinese at home in the Coppa Italia and another impressive 6-0 thrashing of Lazio in Serie A. A common thread between these two matches is that Inter managed to keep a clean sheet in both. At home, Simone Inzaghi’s men have suffered just one defeat this season, and that was to bitter city rivals Milan. Inter’s solid performances at the San Siro have been crucial to their ongoing success, with other top teams like Napoli and Juventus only managing draws there, while league leaders Atalanta were handed a 4-0 defeat.
Como 1907 Team News
Como may still hold a glimmer of hope for their tough trip to San Siro. The team remains undefeated in their last three Serie A fixtures, drawing against relegation rivals Monza and Venezia, before securing a surprising 2-0 home victory over Roma. That win also marked their first clean sheet of the season. However, manager Cesc Fàbregas will need to address his team’s troubling away form—Como has not won any of their last five league trips, although they have managed to avoid defeat in their last two. Despite this, it will likely take more than just a solid performance to challenge Inter, and Como will need to dig deep to avoid defeat against the Nerazzurri.
Head-to-Head-Games
There are no recent H2H encounters to speak of as the last time these two sides met was way back in the 2002/03 Serie A season. Inter managed to secure two wins over Como back then and both were to nil.

Inter – Como 1907 Betting Prediction
It’s no surprise to expect an Inter win here, but I believe they will secure the victory with a comfortable margin. Therefore, the -1.5 Asian Handicap for Inter seems like a strong option. The Nerazzurri’s home form has been exceptional, and their performances at the San Siro have been impressive. In contrast, Como’s away form has been lacklustre, and while there have been some signs of improvement, I don’t think it will be enough to challenge an Inter side that will be determined to win and stay within striking distance of Atalanta and Napoli at the top of the table.
