Como vs Inter Milan Preview

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: Saturday, 23 May
• Kick-Off Time: 06:45 PM GMT
• Venue: Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia

The Como vs Inter Milan match will be played on Saturday at the Stadio Sinigaglia. The 10th-placed Como will host the second-placed Inter Milan in the final league game of the Serie A 2024-25 season.

Como are seeking to finish what has been an impressive campaign with a flourish as they welcome defending champions Inter Milan, who are still chasing the title. Como has enjoyed their return to the Serie A as the Volactics have ensured a top-half finish in the 2024-25 season and now have a chance to be the kingmakers as they could defeat Inter and allow Napoli to walk towards the title unchallenged. Cesc Fabregas's men have navigated the top-flight brilliantly as Como became the first side to get promoted and win six matches in the same league season since Lazio achieved this feat back in 1973. They will be very confident going into this match and will be looking to make their fans happy in the final game of the season.

On the other hand, Inter Milan could have a dream campaign if they were able to snatch the top spot back from Napoli, but the Nerazzuri still head into the final matchday with hopes of winning the Serie A title. For now, they are seeking to defend the Serie A title for the first time in over a decade and a half. Simone Inzaghi will not be present on the sidelines for this crucial fixture as he was sent off in the last game. Inzaghi's men have done a great job this season, as they have reached the Champions League final as well. They will hope to win the double this season. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

Key Players to Watch in Como vs Inter Milan

Nico Paz (Como)

A versatile player who is naturally adept in several positions such as central midfield, attacking midfield and winger. Paz is tactically astute and technically capable of playing in various tactical systems. He is extremely elegant on the ball with a superb touch and excellent close control.

He knows how to create dynamism in the team's build-up process by using his natural verticality, good vision and passing ability. Paz has good positional sense, and spatial awareness, and finds the space well between the lines. He has above-average finishing, movement and composure in the final third. In 34 games, he has scored six goals and provided eight assists.

Nicolo Barella (Inter Milan)

Barella is a real box-to-box, all-action player, but his greatest attribute is his passing and ability to play through balls and key passes. Despite his slender build, the Inter Milan midfielder is known for pressing with energy and aggression. He is someone who does his attacking and defensive job very well and brings in a lot of stability and balance in the midfield. Barella fits in Inzaghi's system very well and is a machine in the midfield.

He has the vision to attack spaces and help his teammates in attack; on the other hand, he is able to position himself very intelligently to help his team in defence as well. The Italian is an all-around player who is in fine form this season. This season, he has played 50 games, in which he scored three goals and provided eight assists.

Como vs Inter Milan Prediction

Despite Inter missing some key players, they are the favorites to win this fixture. Last time Inter won very easily against Fabregas' men, but this time it won't be easy, as the home side are full of confidence and will give them a tough challenge for sure. Most probably, the away team will narrowly win this match.

Predicted Score: Como 1-2 Inter Milan
