Lazio – Como. Forecast and announcement for the match of the Italian championship

On January 19, the match of the 21st round of Italian Serie A will be held at Stadio Olimpico, in which Lazio will meet Como. The match will start at 21:45 Kyiv time.

Lazio

The team is still considered a historical football giant. Only the maximum result in recent decades was the second place won by Sarri. It is not surprising that in the summer he was asked to return – in this way they reacted to the drop to seventh place, which did not allow to save the pass to the European Cups.

But Maurizio is not doing well now either. The management also helps by selling such a key player as Genduzi without consulting the coach. However, even without him, in the last round, they finished with a victory. On the other hand, there they won 1-0 against a modest outsider, Verona. Moreover, this is the first match won in the last five. On the other hand, they lost only one out of eight matches, with Napoli.

Como

The club once appeared in Serie A, at the beginning of the century. But since then, a lot has changed, up to bankruptcy and a forced restart – the good thing is that in the end, local businessmen became interested in the project. As a result, their ambitions were enough to reach the top league in 2024. And there the newcomer managed to pleasantly surprise: with 49 points they closed the top 10.

Now it is possible to demonstrate very decent results again. So, in the last round, Cesc’s wards lost 1-3 against Milan. But this is only the fourth misfire since the beginning of the season – more than twice as many wins, nine. So even after the mentioned failure, the team is kept in the zone of European Cups. And there is also the cup, where Südtirol and Sassuolo have played, and soon they will have to play Fiorentina on the road.

Statistics of personal meetings

All three first head-to-head matches were won by the Romans. But then, in 2025, there was first a draw, and then Como’s victory.

Forecast

Bookmakers consider the pair quite equal. But in general, Como is more stable this season – let’s bet on their victory with a zero handicap (coefficient – 2.0 according to the BC betking line).
