Como vs Juventus Preview, Prediction, Possible Lineups and Betting Tips

Como can extend their unbeaten streak to six on October 19th, but welcome a Juventus side that is yet to taste defeat this season and you can find a full preview, prediction, possible lineups and betting tips below.

Como vs Juventus Preview

After bringing in over 15 players during the summer transfer window, Como were tipped to be a dark horse in Serie A and make a real push for Champions League qualification.

Cesc Fabregas’ side have supported these claims with some strong performances this season and Como are on a run of five matches without defeat across all competitions.

I Lariani secured a well-earned point against Atalanta in their latest Serie A fixture and moved up to eighth in Serie A, after picking up nine-points from the opening six matches.

Como have also made strides outside of Serie A, after earning a place in Coppa Italia Ro16 with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Sassuolo in late September.

Another side that is also on an unbeaten run is Juventus, as Igor Tudor’s side have avoided defeat across all competitions so far and sit fifth in Serie A.

The Bianconeri began the season with three consecutive victories in Serie A, including a huge 4-3 victory over Inter Milan and cemented themselves as real title contenders.

However, performances in recent weeks have taken a massive drop and Juventus have drawn five consecutive matches in all competitions – being held to a goalless stalemate by AC Milan most recently.

Igor Tudor was hit with some major injury news during the recent international break, as Gleison Bremer has been ruled out until next year after undergoing knee surgery.

Como will also have some key absentees on October 19th, with Nicolas Kuhn, Ignace Van der Brempt and Sergio Roberto all set to miss out.

Como vs Juventus Prediction

Juventus appear to be stuck in some sort of rut after drawing each of their last five matches across all competitions and Igor Tudor will be looking to turn these stalemates into victories.

As for Como, the Stadio Sinigaglia has been somewhat of a fortress this season after Cesc Fabregas’ side have avoided defeats in each of their home games so far.

The Bianconeri have won three of the four meetings with Como since 2002, but Tudor’s side face a difficult task with several key absences and we expect this match to end all-square.

Prediction: Como 1-1 Juventus

Como vs Juventus Betting Tips

Both Teams To Score: -110

Como and Juventus have shown a defensive solidity in Serie A this season, with both sides conceding just five goals in six league matches – but the Bianconeri have kept three clean sheets as opposed to Como’s one.

Supporters have criticized Serie A for a lack of goals this season, but five of Juventus’ last six matches across all competitions have seen both teams score and the same can be said when looking at four of Como’s last five matches in all competitions.

Although Juventus have only made the trip to Como on two occasions since 2003, both of these meetings have seen both teams find the target, with last season’s clash ending in a 2-1 victory for Cesc Fabregas’ side.
