Como Preview: Cesc’s Como
With Cesc Fabregas at the helm and an ambitious season of spending following their promotion to Serie A for the first time in over 60 years last season, Como have looked to play one of the more intense and adventurous styles of football in Europe.
The hosts come into this one on the back of a comfortable and impressive come from behind 3-1 defeat of bottom-of-the-table Monza. Dany Mota opened the scoring for Monza early on before the game was turned around via Jonathan Ikone, Mergim Vojvoda and Assane Diao.
Torino Preview: Mid-table Torino
Torino, following the appointment of Paolo Vanoli last summer to try and make them slightly more efficient and entertaining after the tenure of Ivan Juric, have replicated pretty much exactly what they have been for the last couple of years sitting firmly in mid-table.
The Turin-based outfit come into this one on the back of a good run of form, though, with their 1-1 draw at home to Hellas Verona at Stadio Grande Torino extending their unbeaten run to six matches either side of the March international break.
Como Team News: Nothing fresh
Como are blessed with quite a deep squad and they are also blessed with no fresh injury concerns or suspension issues for this one so they will be able to name an unchanged eleven. Alberto Dossena remains sidelined due to a knee injury.
Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Butez; Vojvoda, Goldaniga, Kempf, Alex Valle; Caqueret, Da Cunha; Ikone, Nico Paz, Diao; Douvikas
Unavailable: Dossena (Injured)

Como vs Torino Prediction
Como’s 31 Serie A matches so far this season have consisted of 87 goals with an intense and aggressive style as intended by Cesc Fabregas. They have been unfortunate in many games in the second-half of the season even with results improving, too. They now face a Torino side that are themselves in good form at the moment so may well be able to take some confidence into this one and that means both teams scoring may well be a good bet for this one.
