Como vs Sassuolo Prediction 29 November 2025

📢 What can we expect from the clash between Como and Sassuolo in the 13th round of Serie A at the "Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia"? Both teams are having commendable seasons, albeit with noticeably different objectives. Como are confidently positioned in the race for European competition spots, showcasing consistent and balanced football. Meanwhile, Sassuolo, having just returned to the top flight this summer, are primarily focused on avoiding relegation but still manage to deliver quality performances regularly. This upcoming encounter promises to be far more intriguing than it might initially appear.

Head-to-Head

📊 The head-to-head history between Como and Sassuolo includes just one match. This took place in late September this year during the Round of 32 in the Coppa Italia and ended with a convincing victory for Como (3-0). All three goals were scored in the first half, highlighting the complete dominance of the "Larians" that evening.

Como 1907 Team Overview

🔵 Como head into their upcoming match in high spirits. In the last round, the Larians secured one of their most convincing victories since returning to the top flight, thrashing Torino 5-1 away. The result was a true reflection of the game: Como looked significantly stronger, outperformed their opponents across all key statistical categories, and exhibited a high level of attacking organization. After two consecutive draws, the team finally converted their dominance into a confident three points.

⚪ Overall, Como's season has been impressive. They have suffered only one defeat—back in late August against Bologna (0-1). Thanks to their consistent results, the Larians sit sixth in the standings with 21 points. This is despite dropping several points in matches where they had complete control but settled for draws. With such performances, the team could very well be in the title race if not for those unnecessary point losses.

Sassuolo Calcio Team Overview

🟢 For a team that only returned to Serie A this summer, Sassuolo are having more than a respectable season. After 12 rounds, the "Neroverdi" sit in ninth place, just four points behind Como. What's intriguing is that they seem more confident against stronger opponents, while often struggling against teams of their own caliber.

⚫ The recent fixtures perfectly highlight this contrast. On November 9, Sassuolo comfortably defeated Atalanta away (3-0), showcasing mature football and clinical finishing. However, in their next home match, they nearly stumbled against Pisa (2-2). Despite creating numerous dangerous chances and looking much sharper than their opponents, it was Pisa who led late in the game. They were only saved by Kristian Thorstvedt's goal in the final minute of stoppage time.

Como 1907

📣 Como's head coach Cesc Fabregas, following their emphatic 5-1 victory over Torino, emphasized that the result was a testament to the systematic work and maturity of his young squad: "This is the fruit of hard work, stability, and consistency. This is the kind of Como I like to see – hungry, with physical and mental aggression. We are the youngest team in Europe, so there will be ups and downs, but the key is to stay calm and keep working."

🚫 Como face several significant absences. Alberto Dossena and Edoardo Goldaniga are unavailable until early December – the former is recovering from a cruciate ligament injury, while the latter is dealing with a heel issue. Ivan Smolcic will miss the upcoming match due to suspension (accumulation of yellow cards). The participation of Sergi Roberto and Assan Diao is also in doubt as both continue their recovery from muscle injuries.

Sassuolo Calcio

📣 Sassuolo head coach Fabio Grosso praised his team for their resilience and fighting spirit after a dramatic 2-2 draw with Pisa: "We equalized in the fourth minute of added time – credit to the guys for believing until the end. We started with issues, then had ups and downs... We're a new team, and we need to keep striving for growth."

🚫 Sassuolo also face some squad issues. Filippo Romagna will be sidelined until early December due to a calf injury. Edoardo Pieragnolo and Laurs Skjellerup are also doubtful; Pieragnolo is dealing with physical discomfort, while Skjellerup is recovering from a muscle injury.

⚽️ Goal Predictions

⚽️ Goal Predictions

Both teams are strong in attack, though they employ different playing styles. Como have netted 17 goals in 12 matches, while Sassuolo have scored 16, placing them among the top five scoring teams in Serie A. Both sides consistently create chances and capitalize on opponents' mistakes, making the option for both teams to score (yes) a logical choice.

🚩 Corner Predictions

Despite their aggressive playing style and ranking in the top four for average attacks per match (100.1), Como rarely reach the corner flag. The "Larians" average just 3.9 corners per game, which ranks them only 13th in Serie A. It's unlikely this will change significantly in the upcoming matchup, so betting on Como under 6.5 corners seems like a very reliable option.
