Head-to-head statistics Como - Venezia

Como 1907 Team Overview
Definitely, Como is among the top 5 best teams in the current Italian championship in terms of gameplay. The "Larians" are not afraid to play from a position of strength against all their opponents, despite being a newcomer to the league. However, Cesc Fabregas's team always seems to face some obstacles in achieving positive results. Last weekend, Como faced Roma, which rarely drops points at home, but even in this matchup, they looked much more dangerous. However, everything changed after a red card for Marc-Oliver Kempf, which prevented the team from even securing a draw (1-2). Fortunately, the "Larians" are far from the relegation zone, so such local setbacks should not significantly affect the players' morale. As for the upcoming match, besides the suspended German, 4 more players will be unavailable, including Mergim Vojvoda (accumulation of yellow cards) and Sergi Roberto (injury).

Venezia FC Team Overview
Point deficit is the main problem for Venezia at the moment. The "Winged Lions" have been unable to win for 10 matches, although in most cases they have looked no worse than their opponents. Additionally, Eusebio Di Francesco's team often draws with the league's giants. Last weekend, Venezia managed to put up a respectable fight against Atalanta away (0-0), despite being a clear underdog (the odds for their victory reached up to 13). The team continues to sit in the second-to-last position, but the gap from the safety zone is 5 points. Regarding the upcoming match, the coaching staff will not be able to count on 6 players, but there are no new injuries.

⚽ Prediction on Goals
Recently, Venezia has been facing serious issues with scoring goals. The team hasn't been able to find the net for four consecutive matches. However, it's worth acknowledging that the "Winged Lions" have simply been unlucky. Eusebio Di Francesco's squad creates numerous dangerous opportunities, but poor finishing prevents them from achieving a logical conclusion. We are willing to risk predicting that the upcoming match will be an exception. Como is completely inept at playing defense, having kept a clean sheet only 3 times since the start of the season. Therefore, our betting option is a goal for Venezia.
🚩 Prediction on Corners
Corners are another statistical parameter where Venezia does not have the highest numbers. The team averages 3.7 corners per game, with only the hopeless Monza having lower figures (3.5). In away matches, Eusebio Di Francesco's squad approaches the corner flag even less frequently. In the previous round against Atalanta (0-0), for example, the "Winged Lions" earned set pieces near the opponent's goal only 2 times. In such a situation, one can opt for the total corners under 4.
Editorial Prediction
According to the bookmakers, there is a clear favorite in the upcoming clash. They believe that Como will handle their opponent without any issues. However, our editorial team holds a completely opposite view. Firstly, Venezia has long ceased to be considered an easy team to beat. The "Winged Lions" put up a fight against strong opponents even in away matches. Recent matches against Lazio (0-0) and Atalanta (0-0) are excellent confirmations of these words. Secondly, Cesc Fabregas's team itself has issues achieving the desired results. If Como wins, it is usually by a maximum of one goal difference. Therefore, our key betting option is Venezia to win with a handicap (+1.5). We dare to predict that the clash will end with a score of 1-1.
