Como vs Inter prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2025-05-22 18:45.
[p]Como’s sensational six-match winning run in Serie A was ended by a 1-1 draw against Verona last weekend, but the result still guaranteed they’ll finish in the top half in their first season back at this level. It’s been over two months since they were last beaten in the league, but that came against AC Milan (2-1), which may not be the best omen ahead of facing title-chasing Inter Milan on the final day.[/p]
[p]The Lariani have been a thorn in the side of the division’s elite this term, taking points from six of the current top-eight teams. That doesn’t include Inter after a 2-0 loss in the reverse fixture, but Como may well be confident of adding their scalp having gone unbeaten in their last six home games (W4, D2), a run that started with a 2-1 win over Inter’s title rivals Napoli.[/p]
[p]Inter Milan head into the final day as underdogs to successfully defend their title, trailing Napoli by a single point. All possibilities are open, including a play-off to determine the champions should the pair finish level on points, but the Nerazzurri aren’t exactly in peak form having won just two of their last five league matches (D1, L2). That includes a dramatic 2-2 draw against Lazio on Sunday which prevented them from moving to the Serie A summit.[/p]
[p]They’re looking to become the first side other than Juventus to retain the Serie A title since 2009/10, when they secured the treble by also winning the UEFA Champions League. With the final of that competition still to come, all focus remains on the Scudetto, which Inter could take another step towards should they win a ninth successive Serie A H2H, but a significant challenge awaits given that Inter have failed to win six of their last eight away league matches (W2, D3, L3).[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Gabriel Strefezza saw his three-game scoring streak halted against Verona, but should fancy his chances of netting here as three of his last four strikes have come on home soil. Wing-back Denzel Dumfries has seen six of his seven league goals this season arrive after half-time, with five of those coming in games which featured 4+ total goals.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Inter have dropped points on the final day of just one of the last eight Serie A seasons (W7, D1).[/p]
