Como will take on Bologna in the Serie A at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia on Saturday, with the home team starting the new year with two wins in a row and looking to extend the streak.
Como continued their impressive defensive form on Tuesday, defeating Pisa 3-0 for their third consecutive clean sheet. They have conceded just 12 goals, the fewest in the league, showing the strength of Cesc Fàbregas’ side.
Playing at home should give Como confidence; they remain unbeaten at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia this season and have won four of their last five home matches.
Bologna, meanwhile, have seen their push for the top four stall. Wednesday’s 2-0 defeat to Atalanta extended their Serie A winless run to six matches, leaving them seven points behind sixth-placed Como ahead of this round.
Vincenzo Italiano’s side will hope to recover on the road, having lost their last away game 3-1 to Inter, though they were unbeaten in the previous eight competitive away matches, suggesting they remain capable of putting up a fight in this encounter.

Como vs Bologna prediction: Home team to nick a win
Key statistics
- Their last meeting ended in a first-half draw.
- Como are unbeaten in their last five home games.
- Three of their last five meetings had under 2.5 goals scored.
Correct score prediction: Como 1-0 Bologna
Looking at their previous performances, we expect a very tight encounter at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia, where both sides possess enough quality to cancel each other out. However, we predict a narrow 1-0 scoreline for this match because of Como’s home form this season.
The home side have been particularly resilient in front of their own supporters, while the visitors have the quality in midfield to maintain possession and frustrate the host. Despite this, we expect the home team to snatch a win in this encounter.

Most recent head-to-head: Rossoblu edge the record
Looking at the history between these two sides, the last five competitive meetings reveal that Bologna has generally enjoyed winning against Como. Out of these five encounters, the Rossoblu have secured three victories, while Como has managed only one win, with one match ending in a draw.
Their most recent clash in 2025 saw the visitors take all three points with a narrow 1-0 victory, which followed a 2-0 win for the same side earlier in the same year. However, it is worth noting that the home side have been unbeaten in their last five home games, with four wins and one draw.

Player to watch: Nico Paz
Nico Paz is Como’s important player this season. With six goals and six assists this season, the young midfielder has been the creative heartbeat of his team.
His vision, ability on the ball and finding space in the final third make him the primary threat for the visitors to contain. Should the host manage to find the back of the net, Paz will likely be involved in the build-up or provide the finishing touch himself.
