Style clash at Artemio Franchi
Form and standings
AC Fiorentina sit in a woeful 18th place on four points, while Calcio Como are flying in sixth with 11 points from six games and could represent a threat to La Viola at the Artemio Franchi on Sunday. The hosts are winless in their last three home Serie A 2026/2027 fixtures and have averaged 0.67 goals per game while conceding 2.00 at this ground, a run which suggests Como could get a strong return at the Franchi.
Head-to-head and tactics
The last clash between the sides in Serie A 2025/2026 finished 2-1 to La Viola away from home, but the two sides have split the last two meetings at 1-1, so it's impossible to predict a walk in the park for the away side. Paolo Vanoli's system is a fluid 3-at-the-back system that aims to overload the center and make forward runs, while Fàbregas' 4-2-3-1 is designed to build up with control, stretch the play out wide and trigger the press with the quality of the ball.
Key players
- Cesc Fàbregas has overseen a run of three wins, one draw and one defeat from Como's last five games in all competitions, including a 2-1 home win over Parma, a 2-0 away defeat to Frosinone and a 0-0 draw with Roma.
- Mateo Pellegrino has been involved in three of Fiorentina's nine goals in their last five fixtures, allowing Vanoli's front line to remain active by his constant movement, while Nico Paz has three assists in Como's last five, so the Catalan's side has the advantage between the lines.
- Anastasios Douvikas leads the way in Serie A 2026/2027 scoring for I Lariani with two goals in five games, while Assane Diao has three in Como's last five.
Como can get a result in Firenze
Franco Mastantuono is Fiorentina's Serie A 2026/2027 top scorer with three goals in five matches, giving La Viola a slight edge in the attacking area, but Como appear to be the better team on form, as well as league position.
As a result, I Lariani appear the likelier outcome here at 2.06, as Fiorentina are 3.3 and the draw 3.55, but La Viola have failed to win any of their last three at home to Como, so we're going to stay on the conservative side for this clash.
Both teams to score – Yes at 1.55 and Over 2.5 goals at 1.65 are a safer option, as the visitors' forward momentum makes those markets look attractive.
