"Cruising their way to a routine 3-0 romp away at Lecce, the former Arsenal skipper has seen his squad gain a string of plaudits from across the continent. Getting New Year's Day underway sat in the European spots, the Lombardy-based outfit also know that they could move within touching distance of the Champions League places this weekend. Signing off November with a 2-0 win against Sassuolo, Como have also gained a real reputation for their continued dominance on home soil."
"Although Udinese might have sprung a sensational upset last month as they snatched a 1-0 victory at home against reigning Italian champions Napoli, the Little Zebras have once again drastically struggled to find any kind of stability. Falling to a nightmare 5-1 drumming at the hands of relegation scrappers Fiorentina last month, Kosta Runjaic's side have sacrificed their spot in the top-half of the Serie A standings."
Como ended 2025 with confident victories, including a 3-0 win at Lecce and a 2-0 result over Sassuolo, and have built momentum under Cesc Fabregas. The Lombardy side remain unbeaten in their first nine home showdowns across all competitions and have suffered only one Serie A home defeat in the past 11 months. Como sit inside the European places and can move closer to Champions League contention with a win. Udinese have shown flashes, beating Napoli 1-0, but also suffered a 5-1 loss to Fiorentina and a 2-0 Coppa Italia exit to Juventus, leaving them unstable and outside the top half.
