Como vs Venezia Prediction

Como took the lead at the Stadio Olimpico away at Roma last weekend against Roma but eventually suffered a 2-1 loss to Claudio Ranieri’s Giallorossi in that one. That came a week after they had beaten Napoli by two goals to one and their performances are continually improving with Cesc Fabregas beginning to get his way. Venezia, who were promoted to Serie A alongside Como last season, are instead struggling badly as they appear destined for Serie B, most recently sharing back-to-back goalless draws against Atalanta and Lazio. Como, albeit against a side that have begun to shut teams down as shown, will still be firm favourites for this one with their home advantage.
