Como vs Lazio prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2024-10-30 19:45.
[p]After two wins in a row to end September, Como have since failed to emerge victorious from the following three Serie A games (D1, L2), with their latest result a 1-0 defeat at Torino last Friday. The good news for Cesc Fà bregas’ men is that they return to the familiar surroundings of Stadio Giuseppe Sinagaglia for this midweek clash with Lazio, having not lost there so far this season (W1, D2). [/p]
[p]In all three of those matches though, both teams scored, with the BiancoblĂą now the only side in the division not to have kept a clean sheet in 2024/25. It has been a long time since Como met Lazio, and while the upcoming hosts have lost the last two H2Hs – conceding three on each occasion – they have won two of the last three such home encounters by slender one goal margins.[/p]
[p]Lazio, meanwhile, have now triumphed in six of their last seven matches, including three of their last four in the league, and head into the upcoming round of fixtures occupying a coveted top-six spot after easing past Genoa (3-0) on Sunday. That was a result which secured back-to-back clean-sheet wins for the Biancocelesti for the first time since January. [/p]
[p]Key to Lazio’s recent good form has been starting well, with their opener in four of their last six victories coming inside 25 minutes. The capital club also have some great form against newly promoted teams, winning seven of their last eight Serie A meetings with such teams (L1), which means they should fancy their chances of taking all three points from this contest, in what will be a reunion between in-form Lazio attacker Pedro and Como boss Fà bregas, who lifted nine trophies during their time together at Barcelona and Chelsea. [/p]
[p]Players to watch: An Alieu Fadera goal may not be a great omen for Como, as only three of his last seven scoring club appearances have come in winning causes (D1, L3). Tijjani Noslin netted the opener against Genoa, meaning that his team on the day has scored at least twice on seven of the last eight occasions when he has found the net (W4, D3, L1). [/p]
[p]Hot stat: There has been at least one goal on or beyond the 75th minute in five of Como’s last six games. [/p]
