Como vs Udinese Preview

Como

Como, who have not had the best run this Serie A season, will hope to turn their fortunes around in Monday night’s clash against Udinese. The home team are ranked 17th with only 19 points inside their kitty, and relegation seems to be a real threat. To avoid that, the squad will have to be on their toes at all times to prevent dropping points.

Coming into this game on the back of a narrow yet significant 1-2 loss to AC Milan, Como may feel they need to pick up at least a point here by hook or crook. They like the 3-4-2-1 formation, where emphasis is put on passing the ball through straight lines. Their wingbacks alter their positions whenever they lose possession, but this doesn’t really allow them to use the space on the flanks.

Udinese

Udinese have an advantage over their opponents Como this Monday, but they’ll have to make sure they don’t take their eyes off the ball till the full-time whistle has been blown. They’re currently ranked 10th in the league with 26 points. Manager Kosta Runjaic will aim for a spot in the upper echelons of the table so his team can compete in Europe next season.

Udinese prefer a 3-5-2 strategy in which strikers Alexis Sanchez and Thauvin are fed balls by their more-than-capable midfielders. The likes of Kamara and Lovric play vital roles in feeding balls to their attackers, and will need to be done in full flow against Como. 

Former Arsenal and Manchester United attacker Sanchez, however, has not been in good form this season. He’s not to score a goal in the three matches he has played so far.

Como vs Udinese Prediction

• Pick: Como or Udinese
• Odds: 1.37 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Como 1-2 Udinese

Neither Como nor Udinese appear to be the favourites to win, so we anticipate this game going either way. There has only been one recorded event between these two clubs, the reverse fixture played earlier this season. Udinese emerged as winners with a 1-0 scoreline.

The hosts have only won twice in their previous five matches. For Udinese, the corresponding number is worse, having only 1 win in their last five outings. Lucca, Sanchez and Thauvin will be keen on putting up a good show against the Como defenders and getting on the scoresheet as soon as possible.

Como vs Udinese Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Total over 1.5 goals
• Odds: 1.34 (22Bet)

We expect to see a total of over 1.5 goals in this game. Despite missing the services of Alberto Moreno and Sergi Roberto due to injury, Como will pose quite an attacking threat to the Udinese defenders tonight. Even more so since they’re playing at home.

Cutrone, Strefezza and Paz will be Como’s main players, having seen a total of over 1.5 goals in their last five matches. They’ll be confident repeating it here as well. As for Udinese, they come into this encounter on the back of two goalless draws, though they did see a total of over 1.5 goals in the three games prior to that.
