Napoli top Serie A with Conte’s stamp
The Napoli vs Calcio Como preview highlights Napoli as the early season favorites to win the Serie A 2025-2026 title after taking 18 points from their first eight matches, with Antonio Conte’s tactical nous and defensive discipline appearing to have struck the right chord in Naples.
Conte’s Napoli are a team of organisation and structure, with a back three to provide structure in possession and out of possession, while they press in pockets and make quick vertical transitions when possible.
With Kevin De Bruyne scoring four goals in eight games, Napoli have the quality to make hay when the game opens up, but Conte’s team are a well-oiled machine.
Scott McTominay has chipped in with three of Napoli’s last seven goals and provides a goal threat from midfield, where Cesc Fàbregas is developing Como.
Fàbregas is building his Como project
Calcio Como are sitting 6th in Serie A 2025/2026 having taken 13 points from 8 fixtures for a solid start to the new season for the promoted side.
Como’s style is the antithesis to Napoli’s approach, with Fàbregas’s side patient on the ball, rotating players and creating overloads in central areas before trying to progress the play.
Nico Paz is the talisman of Como’s new philosophy, leading the team in both goals (4) and assists (4) in Serie A 2025/2026. Paz can be a real difference maker if he gets space, but Fàbregas’s progressive team can also be exposed when the opposition are good in transition. This Napoli vs Calcio Como prediction suggests that tactical contrasts will shape an intriguing contest.
