Lazio vs Como

Lazio welcome Como to the Stadio Olimpico for a Monday night Italian Serie A fixture, with both teams pushing for the European places. 

Both sides are showing similar form at the moment and appear almost evenly matched heading into this clash. There is little to separate them, and they could be set to cancel each other out. 

Lazio News


It has been a mixed bag for Lazio this season as they sit ninth in the table, six points off the top six. They are unbeaten in eight of their last nine matches across all competitions, claiming a 1-0 victory at Verona last time out in Serie A. 

Lazio have also been decent at home, having gone unbeaten in eight of their last nine matches at the Stadio Olimpico. However, they have been plagued by draws lately, with three of the last four fixtures on this run ending in stalemates. 

The capital club have shown flashes of quality in attack, scoring in seven of their last nine home matches. However, Maurizio Sarri's team are without a clean sheet in three of the last four fixtures on this run while three of their last five matches across all competitions have produced more goals after the break.

Como News 


Como are enjoying a solid second season in Serie A as they are pushing for a European finish, sitting sixth in the table. However, they will head into this clash off the back of a 3-1 home defeat to AC Milan last time out in Serie A. 

Manager Cesc Fabregas will consider that result a blip as Como had been unbeaten in their previous four matches. They have also done some good work on their travels, with four wins and three draws in the last seven away matches. 

The defeat to Milan highlights a defensive vulnerability for Como, who have now conceded four goals in their last two matches. However, they have scored in their last five matches, with three of those fixtures producing more goals after the break. 

Head to Head


Lazio have three wins while Como have picked up one victory, with one draw from five previous matches. The visitors triumphed 2-0 at home in the reverse fixture back in August.

Verdict

Lazio and Como have scored in two of their last three meetings, and a similar outcome is expected here. With two of those three fixtures also producing more goals after the break, Monday’s clash could be set to play out a similar pattern.

The Capital club are decent at home but have been plagued by draws lately. Given Como’s results on their travels, both teams are likely to settle for a share of the spoils in this one.
