Sassuolo will take it to the Lariani
Like the two clubs that face off at Stadio G. Sinigaglia, Italy, on Saturday, the statistics tell us that this is a tough game to call in this Calcio Como vs Sassuolo preview. Lariani are the favorites at 1.41 with Sassuolo out at 7.0 and the tie listed at 4.55, which points to the fact that Como are a little further along in their Serie A 2026/2027 campaign.
But it's easy to justify the hosts as favourites at the moment because they sit 8th in the table with 11 points from six games, while Sassuolo are 11th with eight points from seven.
Both teams have been in decent form, but the Lariani have a rhythm at home that they don't seem to get away from home.
Fàbregas' men are in good shape
Cesc Fàbregas is getting a lot out of his Como side by getting them to play on the front foot in a possession-first game. They build-up in a structured way, but have the energy and quality to counter-press and keep opponents pinned back. Anastasios Douvikas has been the main outlet for the home team in Serie A 2026/2027 with two goals in five games, but the most valuable player has been Nico Paz with three assists in the last five games.
Como are solid at home in Serie A 2026/2027, going undefeated in two games with one win, one draw and just one goal conceded. They held AC Milan to a 1-1 tie before a 4-2 defeat at Frosinone, so they are leaking a few goals away from home.
Sassuolo will make this a high-tempo game with a lot of goals on the menu, which should suit their style of play. Alberto Aquilani has them playing in either a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-3-1, pressing in organised units, loading the wide areas and pushing up quickly to exploit transitions.
Vasilije Adzic has been their main goal threat with three goals in Serie A 2026/2027 in five appearances, but they have scored plenty of goals away from home this season. They should get chances to take advantage of any lapses in transition by Como. Calcio Como vs Sassuolo prediction
Como are the more likely to get it
There's a clash of styles here and each coach will have different ways to control the game. Como will want to control the tempo and Sassuolo will want to break fast and hit spaces behind. The Lariani have a better home record this season, so I'm backing them to squeeze out a win in a competitive contest.
An open game with more than 2.5 goals and both teams to score is the clear play at 1.5 and 1.65, but the most likely outcome looks to be a narrow Lariani win in a game that is unlikely to be pretty. Calcio Como vs Sassuolo betting tips suggest that both teams to score could also be a strong angle here. Calcio Como vs Sassuolo prediction
