Como 1907vsHellas Verona

Como 1907's Resurgence

Como 1907 is riding a wave of optimism as they return to Serie A after a 21-year absence. Their recent performances have been nothing short of impressive, highlighted by a commanding 4-1 victory over Udinese. The club's financial backing from the Hartono brothers has allowed them to bolster their squad with high-profile signings like Raphael Varane and Andrea Belotti. With a strong home record this season (2-2-0) and an unbeaten streak of nine home matches, Como is proving to be a formidable force at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia.

Hellas Verona's Struggles

In contrast, Hellas Verona is grappling with inconsistency and a precarious position in the Serie A standings. Currently sitting in 18th place, just above the relegation zone, Verona has failed to win in their last eight matches. Their recent 0-3 loss to Lazio underscores their struggles, particularly in finding the back of the net. With only one win in their last six matches and a poor away record (0-2-2), Verona faces an uphill battle against a resurgent Como side.

Head-to-Head Insights

Historically, the encounters between Como 1907 and Hellas Verona have been closely contested. In their last seven meetings, Verona holds a slight edge with three wins to Como's two. However, Como's recent form against Verona is encouraging, with just one loss in their last five encounters. The last meeting ended in a 1-1 draw, but given Verona's current goal-scoring drought, Como will be confident of securing a win.
