Como vs Inter: preview, odds and Sofascore Ratings

Serie A returns to Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia as Como host Inter in Round 32. It’s a clash of two possession-heavy sides with clean-sheet habits and very different attacking profiles. Cristian Chivu’s Inter arrive with the league’s sharper shooting volume, while Cesc Fàbregas’ Como have been tidy on the ball and stingy at the back. Referee Davide Massa has the whistle, and his numbers suggest we could see a busy notebook.

– Inter have 71 goals for and 26 against, also with 15 clean sheets. They average 60.2% possession, 87.3% passing from 16,994 passes and lead the shot count 557 to 440.

– Team form by Sofascore Rating: Inter’s season average is 6.99, Como’s 6.93.

Probable shapes and standout roles

Lineups are not confirmed, but the setups look familiar. Como are listed in a 4-2-3-1 with Jean Butez in goal (Sofascore Rating 7.24). The back line features Ivan Smolčić, Diego Carlos, Marc-Oliver Kempf and Álex Valle, with Máximo Perrone and Lucas Da Cunha in midfield balance.

Further forward, Martin Baturina (7.18) and Nico Paz (7.28) supply creativity around Assane Diao and striker Anastasios Douvikas. Inter’s 3-5-2 reads as Yann Sommer in goal, a back three of Manuel Akanji, Francesco Acerbi and Alessandro Bastoni (7.30). In midfield, Denzel Dumfries and Federico Dimarco provide width, with Nicolò Barella, Hakan Çalhanoğlu (7.53) and Piotr Zieliński in the engine room. Marcus Thuram partners Francesco Pio Esposito up front.

Attacking patterns, set pieces and where chances come from

Inter lean on volume and territory: 208 corners, 753 crosses at 30.1% accuracy and 396 shots inside the box. They also boast 16 headed goals and a 55.1% long-ball completion rate. Como are efficient on transitions with 38 fast breaks and 6 goals from them, plus 287 shots inside the box and 129 corners at 27.8% crossing accuracy.

Both sides can sting from range too, with 10 goals from outside the box each. Shots on target favor Inter 193 to 159, while woodwork has denied them 19 times to Como’s 8. Expect a few deliveries into dangerous zones and a lot of play in the final third.

Referee watch and discipline trends

Davide Massa has overseen 374 matches, showing 1,744 yellows and 51 straight reds. That’s roughly 4.7 yellow cards per game, so set-piece specialists could see their share of service if fouls accumulate. Como have committed 425 fouls with 65 yellow cards, Inter 417 fouls with 51 yellows and no reds.

Inter’s offside count (54) suggests a high backline test for Como and timing runs for Thuram and company. Como’s aerial duel win rate (56.7%) is close to Inter’s (55.5%), so set pieces may come down to delivery quality rather than size alone.

Odds snapshot

The 1X2 market tilts slightly to Inter: Home 21/10, Draw 9/4, Away 69/50. The Asian handicap shows Como +0.25 at 4/5 and Inter -0.25 at 21/20. Odds may move as team news firms up, so keep an eye on updates.
