- Napoli have won four and drawn one of their last five matches, winning their last two consecutively.

- Napoli have not beaten Calcio Como in their last three meetings (2 draws, 1 win for Como).
Stalemate set to be a chess match
Napoli come into this Serie A 2026-2027 weekend fixture as slight favourites at 7/5 against Calcio Como, who are 47/25 and the draw 23/10, but the draw looks the most likely outcome, given the recent head-to-head record between the two sides.
Napoli is third in the table with three points from one game, while Como are sixth with one point from one match.
Massimiliano Allegri's side have been impressive across all competitions (W3, D1) at home, but they have not defeated Calcio Como in their last three attempts, with those three meetings comprising two draws and a Como win (including a 0-0 draw at Como's ground in Serie A 2025/2026).
Como are a smart, structured side who play a compact game with possession, Cesc Fabregas has done a fine job of getting them pressing as a team and being disciplined in their structure. In contrast, Napoli's 4-3-3 is a more flexible structure which Allegri can mould to control the tempo of the game. This fixture has the potential to open up, but Allegri's rotation in midfield and Napoli's home rhythm should be able to break through Calcio Como's compact block on Sunday.
Cesc Fabregas’ Como are set to make things tough
Anastasios Douvikas is Como's top-scorer in Serie A 2026-2027 with one goal, while Antonio Vergara is Napoli's top-scorer and also top assist provider. The livewire play in between the lines should be a handful for Como's defence on Sunday.
Como have won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five across all competitions (W1, D2, L2) which is a mixed sequence of results that has not provided much momentum for Fabregas' side. On the road, however, Calcio Como have won one, drawn one and lost two of their last four (W1, D1, L2) which is not the record of a confident away side. Napoli should win, but the value is in the possibility that this fixture becomes a scrap, as both teams have the structure to make it so.
Under 2.5 goals is 31/50, while Both Teams to Score Yes is 93/100, so this should be a game for the purists. Napoli average 3.3 goals for at home to Como across five head-to-head clashes, while Como average 3.0 goals at Napoli, so this has the makings of an intriguing affair in Naples.
