Napoli vs Como team news and expert analysis
The Naples giants became champions immediately after Conte took charge. However, in 2025/2026, despite winning the Super Cup, they failed to reach the Champions League playoffs and surrendered the Serie A title to Inter. New head coach Allegri made his debut against Genoa, where his new side secured a convincing 2-0 victory.
The club from the popular island was promoted to the top flight in 2024. Last season, they sensationally finished fourth, narrowly edging out Milan and Napoli. They began the new campaign away to Udinese, where they had to settle for a draw, with both sides scoring once.
Napoli averaged 1.53 goals per match while conceding considerably fewer, at 0.95. Cesc's side had an even better record, scoring 1.71 goals per game and conceding just 0.76.
Head to Head matches: Napoli vs Como
All three of the most recent meetings ended in draws: goalless draws in the league, while their cup encounter finished 1-1 before the current hosts advanced on penalties.
The hosts will be the favorites, although certainly not overwhelming ones, and they also made the more convincing start to the season. However, they face a difficult opponent, so for now we are backing over 2.0 goals (odds – 1.77).
