No winner at Lake Como?
The hosts will be looking forward to Juve’s visit with mixed feelings: their last three encounters with the “Old Lady” have all ended in defeat! Is it worth betting on Como against Juventus to continue this streak? A look at Lariani’s home performances so far suggests not.
The hosts have yet to lose a match in front of their own fans this season (1-2-0). However, the visitors can counter this record – Turin is still completely undefeated after six rounds of play. Furthermore, we believe Juve has the better squad compared to the club from Lake Como. On the other hand, the “Bianconeri” have not been able to bring their higher quality to the pitch recently.
Two goals in the last three league games quickly show the decline in performance compared to the still very successful start to the season with an average of two goals in the first three league games. The Como vs. Juventus prediction is therefore a draw.
Como – Juventus Head-to-head record
As mentioned at the beginning, the hosts have been waiting for points for three games against the Italian record champions. Moreover, they have not won a single match against this opponent this millennium (0-1-3).
Nevertheless, the odds for the upcoming Como vs. Juventus match are very even.
Como vs. Juventus prediction
Juventus recently slumped after three wins at the start of the season with just as many draws in a row. However, this was partly due to tough opponents such as AC Milan and Bergamo. With Como, coach Igor Tudor’s team, which is still unbeaten this season, now faces a comparatively easy opponent.
The “Biancoblù” are among the sporting lightweights of Serie A, although they are currently in good form. They have lost only one of their six league games this season and most recently managed to snatch at least one point against Bergamo, one of the top teams in the league.
On top of that, Fàbregas’s team is strong at home, and their successful start to the season has long since boosted the confidence of the men from the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia. Another factor in Lombardy’s favor is that the visitors had to send significantly more players to their respective national teams during the international break, which also puts Juve at a physical disadvantage.
Given the situation described above, we are opting for a draw in the Como vs. Juventus betting odds. This has been the norm for the “Vecchia Signora” recently, and the home side have only failed to share the points in one of their last four league games!
On top of that, draws have been above average for Juventus for quite some time. The 36-time national champions had no fewer than 16 draws in the final standings after 38 rounds last season – the highest number in the league!
