Why this pick
Addai enters this fixture in outstanding form after scoring twice against Torino and playing a pivotal role in Como’s long unbeaten surge. With Nico Paz supplying him and either Morata or Douvikas occupying defenders, Addai often finds advantageous spaces to attack. Como’s confidence at home and their fluid attacking patterns create frequent chances for their wide forwards, while Sassuolo’s defence can be opened up by quick transitions. Addai’s sharp finishing, combined with Como’s momentum and tactical approach, makes him an excellent goalscoring option for this match.
Why this pick
Perrone operates at the centre of Como’s midfield, where he is responsible for breaking up play and halting counters. Facing a Sassuolo side containing Matić, Thorstvedt and Berardi, he is likely to be heavily involved in defensive duels. With Como pressing high and leaving spaces behind the first line, Perrone frequently steps in to delay opposition attacks, increasing his foul potential. Sassuolo’s creative players draw challenges in dangerous zones, making a booking for Perrone a realistic scenario.
Why this pick
Como’s attacking rhythm at home naturally produces regular corners, with their direct wide play and constant forward movement forcing defensive clearances. Sassuolo, on the other hand, have been effective away from home and create set-piece opportunities through quick, aggressive transitions. Their front line stretches defences and encourages deliveries into the box, while Como maintain sustained possession spells. Given both sides’ intent, tempo and attacking personnel, each team surpassing three corners fits well with the expected match pattern.
This builder merges Como’s attacking consistency, Sassuolo’s forward ambition and the tactical dynamics of midfield pressure. Addai’s scoring form, Perrone’s defensive workload and both sides’ corner-generating styles combine to form a coherent, well-supported three-leg selection.
Como vs Sassuolo Bet Builder Tip
Bet Builder Selection 1: Jayden Addai To Score
Rationale
Backing Jayden Addai to find the net feels a natural starting point for this builder, largely because his recent performances have shifted Como’s attacking ceiling to a new level. He is central to the side’s resurgence and arrives off the back of a standout display in Turin, where he netted twice during a ruthless 5-1 dismantling of Torino. That brace was not simply a purple patch; it was a continuation of a pattern where Addai consistently becomes the focal point of Como’s most dangerous forward movements. His sharp decision-making around the box, combined with his knack for timing attacking runs, gives him a steady stream of scoring opportunities.
Como’s broader form enhances the argument. The Lombardy outfit have accumulated 21 points from 12 league outings since returning to Serie A, and their upward trajectory is no coincidence. They are unbeaten in ten league matches, and their home record this season – three wins and three draws – shows how effectively they impose themselves at the Sinigaglia. Stability breeds confidence, and confidence breeds attacking freedom. Addai thrives in exactly that environment.
Cesc Fàbregas’s tactical choices also contribute to the appeal. He has transformed Como into a proactive side who press with intelligence and build attacks through a fluid front line. With Nico Paz providing creative threat behind the forwards and either Alvaro Morata or Tasos Douvikas occupying centre-backs, Addai often picks up favourable matchups on the inside channels. Those spaces allow him to cut in, shoot early, or dart beyond the defensive line when Como shift play quickly.
Sassuolo’s defensive profile further bolsters Addai’s chances. While they have enjoyed some impressive away results recently – including a 3-0 win at Atalanta and three victories from their last four on the road – they remain a team that concedes opportunities when opponents attack with pace. Their recent 2-2 draw with Pisa highlighted lingering vulnerabilities, with Fabio Grosso’s side needing a late equaliser to salvage a point. A back line that is still adjusting to top-flight demands, coupled with the absence of several squad players, makes them susceptible to confident forwards.
The previous cup meeting between these two sides also leaves a relevant marker. Como defeated Sassuolo 3-0 earlier in the season, showcasing their ability to unpick this opponent with aggressive, direct play. Addai was part of that dynamic performance and arrives for this league fixture in even stronger form.
All the indicators align: Como’s momentum, their unbeaten home run, Addai’s finishing instincts, and Sassuolo’s occasional defensive looseness. Addai scoring feels not only plausible, but strongly supported by the trends leading into this match.

Bet Builder Selection 2: Maximo Perrone To Be Carded
Rationale
Midfielder Maximo Perrone’s role within Como’s structure places him at the centre of many high-pressure moments, making him a prime candidate for a booking. Sitting in a double pivot, Perrone is tasked with breaking up play, engaging in duels, and disrupting opposition momentum. Against a Sassuolo midfield featuring experienced technicians such as Nemanja Matić and Kristian Thorstvedt, Perrone will likely be drawn into repeated defensive actions.
Como’s style under Fàbregas demands plenty of intensity from their midfield, especially when they transition from attack to defence. When the front line presses aggressively, the space behind them requires quick reactions and tactical discipline. Perrone often shoulders that responsibility, which naturally raises the probability of committing fouls to halt counter-attacks or prevent opposition midfielders from exploiting transitional gaps.
Sassuolo’s front line — led by Andrea Pinamonti, Domenico Berardi and potentially Armand Laurienté — also drifts into central pockets, forcing Como’s midfielders to step forward and engage. Berardi, in particular, draws fouls from virtually every opponent he faces due to his intelligent movement and unpredictability. In matches where Sassuolo attack with pace, opponents frequently resort to tactical fouling.
Given the match’s expected tempo, and Perrone’s defensive duties, a booking fits comfortably within the anticipated rhythm of the game.
Bet Builder Selection 3: Each Team Over 3 Corners
Rationale
Both Como and Sassuolo enter this match with strong attacking identities, which naturally lends itself to sustained spells of pressure and increased corner counts. Como’s home fixtures under Fàbregas have generally followed a pattern where the hosts enjoy long stretches inside the opposition half. Their wide combinations, quick switches of play and willingness to shoot from advanced areas regularly force defenders to intervene, resulting in corners.
Sassuolo, meanwhile, have demonstrated in recent away outings that they will not hesitate to push forward. Their 3-0 win away to Atalanta and their overall record of three wins in their last four away matches underline their ability to produce moments of intensity and aggression on the break. With Pinamonti and Berardi leading the line and a wide player such as Laurienté or Doig stretching the pitch, Sassuolo consistently create attacking phases that bring about set-piece opportunities.
The fact that both sides are comfortable going toe-to-toe in open, fast-paced matches increases the likelihood of corner accumulation. Como’s unbeaten home streak means they will play assertively, while Sassuolo’s steady collection of league points reinforces their confidence to attack even when travelling.
This blend of styles points towards both teams surpassing the three-corner threshold without needing speculative assumptions.
