Serie A, played Monday, December 23rd, 2024
Here is our Inter Milan v Como tip and game preview. Based on our detailed analysis of statistics listed below and other factors, we predicted both teams to not score in this game, over 2.5 goals, and a Inter Milan home win. Our confidence in this pick was moderate relative to other picks.
Inter Milan not only extended their unbeaten run in the domestic top flight to 10 games but the hosts also racked up a third league win on the trot in Serie A last Monday night as the upcoming hosts registered a comprehensive 6-0 thrashing of Lazio away from home to keep Inter in touch with the league leaders Atalanta.
Como also tasted rare success last weekend in the Italian top flight as they recorded a most welcome three points by way of a solid 2-0 home win against a struggling Roma outfit, which in turn helped lift Como up into 16th place in the table but still just a point above the relegation zone.
Inter Milan still occupy third place in the Serie A standings despite producing an impressive 10-game unbeaten sequence which also consists of eight wins into the bargain but the hosts know they have a great opportunity to pick up another three important points on Monday night at the expense of Como.
Three out of Inter Milan's recent eight wins in Serie A have been registered on home soil at their Stadio Giuseppe Meazza against the likes of Torino, Venezia and Parma respectively, while the bigger picture shows Simone Inzaghi's side have slipped to just one defeat throughout this season so far, while goals look set to feature as 10 of Inter's 15 games to date have produced three goals or more.
Como halted a previously worrying nine-game winless run in the Italian top flight last weekend when the upcoming visitors recorded a much needed 2-0 victory at home against an out of sorts Roma side, but Cesc Fàbregas's side now face a daunting task of trying to keep in-form Inter Milan quiet at their Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
Five out of Como's preceding nine league matches in Serie A had resulted in defeat for Como who had stumbled to losses at the hands of Napoli, Torino, Lazio, Empoli and Fiorentina respectively and it is worth noting that three of these five losses were also incurred away from home as well.
League wins overall have been in short supply for Como who have managed to register just three victories to date this term, coming in the form of rare wins against Atalanta, Verona and the aforementioned Roma.
The bigger picture also shows Como have managed to capture just one win from their previous 14 outings at this level, whilst also being handed no fewer than 10 defeats as well with five of their last 10 away games also resulting in Over 2.5 goals.
Inter Milan v Como Verdict
Each of the previous two encounters between Inter Milan and Como have resulted in Over 2.5 goals.
Therefore, our main bet will be Over 2.5 goals @ 1.53
Other side bets worth considering:
Inter Milan win & Over 2 goals @ 1.70
Correct Score: Inter Milan 3-0 @ 7.50
