- Inter have won four of the last five head-to-head fixtures (Como winless in that run).
- Como have won five of their last five in all competitions.
Title top-four scrap in Milan
Two high-riding teams meet at the Giuseppe Meazza on Sunday when Inter, currently 2nd in Serie A 2026/2027 on 25 points from 10 games, host Calcio Como, 4th on 23 points from 10. This looks to be a live top-four contest, so expect two evenly-matched sides to serve up an exciting encounter.
Inter lost 3-1 to rivals AC Milan away in Serie A 2026/2027 last time out, but bounced back with a brilliant 3-0 win away to Feyenoord in the UEFA Champions League League Phase 2026/2027. Cristian Chivu has set Inter up in a bold 3-5-2 system in the Serie A 2026/2027 season, one that is built around vertical thrust, wing-back width and aggressive counter-pressing.
Opponents Como will provide a different proposition, as Cesc Fàbregas has them set up in a 4-2-3-1 that looks to control build-up play, create fluid combinations and utilise the half-spaces. The clash of styles should make for an end-to-end affair.
Como to provide a stern test for Inter
Como come into this game in great form, having won all five of their previous five fixtures across all competitions. They thrashed Torino 3-1 away in Serie A 2026/2027, beat Venezia 1-0 at home in the same competition and demolished Lens 9-1 away in the UEFA Champions League League Phase 2026/2027 in their last three fixtures.
Como will travel to San Siro with confidence, as they have won four of their Serie A 2026/2027 away games (D1, L1), but Inter have been a fortress at home, winning all five of their Serie A 2026/2027 fixtures at San Siro (W5, D0, L0). Inter also beat Como 3-2 at this ground in the Coppa Italia 2025/2026 and the visitors have failed to win in either of their two away games at the San Siro.
Nerazzurri to nick the big moments
It is still Inter that are the narrow favourites at 71/100, and we feel that they have the stronger squad and should have enough firepower to edge this fixture.
Both Teams to Score at 9/20 seems too low, however, as the price matches the feel of this game. Inter average 3.40 goals scored and 1.40 goals conceded at San Siro in Serie A 2026/2027, while Como average 2.17 goals scored and 1.17 conceded away, so both sides can and should find the net in this contest.
Lautaro Martínez is Inter's main threat, as the Argentine has four Serie A goals in four games. Anastasios Douvikas leads Como's scoring with two in five in Serie A 2026/2027, but has six of his team's 19 goals in their last five in all competitions, so he looks the best pick for an anytime goal.
With Inter's direct style and Como's more patient, possession-based game, a goal-fest looks likely and a 2-1 or 3-1 type of Inter win looks the likeliest call.
