Como vs Inter Milan
Luca Pratesi; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Under 2.5 Goals | |
17/20 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Spain and Italy have each looked defensively disciplined and cautious in their approach, rarely allowing open games. Both teams have strong incentive to avoid defeat, especially with England looming in the quarters. Given recent form and the structure of both setups, under 2.5 goals feels the most likely outcome on Tuesday evening. | |
Key Stats:
- Como are unbeaten in their last six league outings, winning five.
- Inter Milan have only two away wins from their last eight Serie A trips.
- Como have conceded just one goal in their last three home matches.
Rationale:
For Friday’s standout betting opportunity, English analyst John Pentin turns his attention to northern Italy, where Serie A title contenders Inter Milan travel to face an impressive Como outfit. Despite the obvious mismatch on paper, context and current form suggest this clash could be tighter than expected.
Simone Inzaghi’s Inter have stumbled away from home of late. Once formidable on the road with eight consecutive wins and seven clean sheets, their form has dipped dramatically. Only two victories from their last eight away league fixtures underlines this wobble, particularly as the pressure mounts ahead of a title showdown and next week’s Champions League final.
Moreover, Inter’s performance against Lazio last weekend raises concerns. After leading twice and seemingly grasping control of the Scudetto race, the Nerazzurri allowed Lazio back in – thanks in part to a late VAR intervention. That psychological blow, coupled with Inzaghi’s likely rotation to protect key players for the PSG clash, could leave Inter vulnerable.
Como, meanwhile, are the definition of form and freedom. A remarkable resurgence since April has propelled Cesc Fabregas’s men into the top half. They are undefeated in six games and boast five wins in that run. Their last three matches at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia all ended in victory, with just one goal conceded. Their motivation? Little pressure and the opportunity to spoil a title party.
Missing injured top scorer Assane Diao is a blow, but Nico Paz has stepped up brilliantly, delivering six goals and eight assists in Serie A. With the Inter defence looking less resolute and rotation likely, the hosts could make this a far tenser evening than Inter supporters would hope for.
This context all points towards one angle of value – backing Como on the double chance market.
Best bet – Como/Draw (Double Chance)
