Competition: Serie A
Market: Como win
Odds: 8/11 @ Pribet
Looking to extend on their remarkable Serie A romp, Como will welcome Cagliari to the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia on Saturday afternoon.
Starting with the hosts, while Como might have only made their historic Serie A return this season, Cesc Fabregas’ side have continued to receive a string of plaudits from across the continent. Skyrocketing themselves into the top-half of the table, the mood around the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia remains at a red-hot high. Last seen putting in another gritty display as they clinched a 1-0 victory away at Parma, the former Arsenal skipper has seen his squad shatter a string of records over the past month. Getting April underway with a 3-1 romp away at Monza, the Lombardy-based outfit have won all of their previous five consecutive Serie A appearances by an aggregate score of 10-1. With their remarkable flurry underlined by a 1-0 win against Torino last month, Como will be smelling another golden opportunity here. It should also be highlighted, Saturday’s hosts have not conceded a single top-flight strike in almost 450 minutes of action.
As for the visitors, while Cagliari might have all but officially extended on their Serie A status for another year, the Sardinians are limping their way over the finishing line. Making an immediate return to losing ways last week as they slumped to a 2-1 defeat at home against Udinese, Davide Nicola’s side have now lost three of their previous four showdowns against top-flight opposition. With that rut highlighted by a 3-1 defeat at the hands of defending champions Inter Milan on April 12th, Saturday’s guests should be bracing themselves for another stern examination here. It should also be noted, the Sardinia-based outfit have registered just a pair of wins from any of their last 11 consecutive Serie A showdowns – a run that stems all the way back to February 9th. Given what has been a huge recent gulf in class between Saturday’s opponents, we are backing a home victory this weekend.
