On Monday, January 20, in the encounter of the 21st round of Serie A, Como will entertain Udinese. The contest commences at 20:45 CET. I recommend a wager on goals in this encounter.
Intriguing details about the match and head-to-head record Como has allowed only 2 goals in their last 3 home fixtures. Udinese’s unbeaten run extends to 4 matches. Udinese has remained undefeated in their last 4 away games. In the 3rd round of the present season, Udinese overcame Como 1–0.
Match overview Como has emerged as one of the most discussed squads in Serie A. As newcomers to Italy’s premier division, they have substantial financial support and are recruiting prominent players. Additionally, the team is led by the renowned Cesc Fàbregas. However, their outcomes have yet to fulfill expectations, as the team is positioned just above the relegation zone in 17th place with 19 points.
Recent performances have been more promising for Como supporters. In the preceding round, Fàbregas’ team took the advantage against AC Milan but eventually lost 1–2. Before that, Como drew 1–1 with Lazio and achieved a 2–0 triumph over Lecce. Over their last five fixtures, Como has gathered 7 points.
Udinese has returned to a mid-table position in Serie A this season. While they struggled against relegation until the concluding stages of last season, they now occupy 10th place with 26 points, seven points above the relegation zone.
Their last two games have been entirely goalless. While a 0–0 draw against Atalanta is a noteworthy accomplishment, the same result against Verona was a letdown. Prior to those outcomes, Udinese drew 2–2 with Torino and accomplished an unexpected 2–1 victory over Fiorentina away.
Likely lineups
Como: Butez; Goldaniga, Dossena, Kempf; Van der Brempt, Da Cunha, Caqueret, Fadera; Strefezza, Diaw; Cutrone
Udinese: Sava; Kristensen, Bijol, Solet; Modesto, Lovric, Karlström, Payero, Kamara; Thauvin, Lucca
Forecast for Como vs Udinese Como has been netting goals consistently at home recently, and Udinese will be aiming to end their scoreless run. My forecast: both teams to score.
Prediction on match Both teams to score – Yes
