Team Analysis
Como will be hoping for a better result following the 2-0 Serie A losing effort in their last game against Inter Milan. In that match, Como managed 37% possession and 8 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. On the other side, Inter Milan had 17 attempts at goal with 5 on target. Carlos Augusto (48') and Marcus Thuram (92') scored for Inter Milan.

It has been seldom in recent games that Como have shown defensive steel. The facts show that Como have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 8 goals along the way. Coming into this contest, Como are unbeaten in their previous 2 league matches at home.

Since a losing effort in their last game against Lazio in Serie A competition, Lecce and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here. In that match, Lecce had 40% possession and 11 attempts at goal with 2 of them on target. The only player to score for Lecce was Tete Morente (50'). Lazio had 13 shots on goal with 7 on target. Valentín Castellanos (45') and Adam Marušić (87') scored for Lazio.

Lecce have had no problems opening up opposition defences in their most recent fixtures, scoring 7 times in their last 6 matches. While their manager Marco Giampaolo will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Lecce can also improve defensively after being scored against in 5 of those same clashes. Historical results aside, we’ll just have to find out whether such a trend will be replicated here in this match or not.

Odds Analysis
Lecce are certainly able to find the back of the net against this Como team, however that probably won’t quite be enough to avoid defeat. Our tip is for a narrow 2-1 victory for Como by the conclusion of the game. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.

Pick: Lecce
