Como vs Bologna Prediction 10 January 2026
📢 How will the clash between Como and Bologna conclude in the 20th round of Serie A at the "Giuseppe Sinigaglia"? Both teams have performed admirably in the first half of the season and continue to vie for European competition spots. Dropping points in such a scenario could prove costly for either side. Neither team is willing to concede, so the encounter promises to be intense.
Head-to-Head
📊 These teams have rarely crossed paths, with only three encounters over the past 20 years, all taking place since 2024. The "Red and Blues" hold the edge with two wins and a draw. However, in the first round of this season, Bologna narrowly secured a 1-0 victory, but it was Como who impressed more with their quality of play and the sharpness of their chances.
Head-to-head statistics Como - Bologna
Como 1907 Team Overview
🔵 Como have excelled in their last three matches, securing a perfect 9 points from a possible 9. Not only did they defeat their opponents, but they also kept clean sheets throughout, conceding no goals. This impressive run has lifted the "Larians" to sixth place in the standings and reduced their gap to the top four to just three points-making a Champions League spot seem within reach.
⚪ In their previous match, Como traveled to face Pisa, a team that, despite not being in top form, has managed to challenge several clubs this season. However, Cesc Fabregas' squad encountered little resistance and confidently secured a 3-0 victory. While the hosts put up a fight in the first half, Como's overwhelming dominance eventually took its toll. After the 68th minute, Pisa simply couldn't withstand the organized attacks from the visitors, and the "Larians" repeatedly broke through their defense.

Bologna Team Overview
🔴 Bologna are currently the complete opposite of Como. The team have been unable to secure a win in Serie A for six consecutive matches. While the "Rossoblu" have found success in the Coppa Italia, Italian Super Cup, and Europa League recently, their last league victory dates back to late November when they convincingly defeated Udinese away (3-0). This prolonged winless streak has started to affect their position in the standings: Bologna have slipped to eighth place and now trail the top-six by seven points. In such a scenario, discussing a Champions League spot becomes increasingly difficult.
🔵 In the previous round, Bologna suffered a home defeat to Atalanta (0-2). Although the "Rossoblu" did not appear significantly weaker in terms of gameplay, their attack was toothless, making it hard to argue against the outcome. If this trend continues, Bologna risk falling further down the table, which might prompt the club's management to consider significant changes within the coaching staff.

Latest news
Como 1907
📣 After a commanding 3-0 away victory over Pisa, Como's head coach Cesc Fabregas emphasized that there's still room for improvement despite the dominant scoreline: "Numbers are just numbers. The most important thing is that the team continues to grow. Pisa fought hard today, and we had to make some adjustments to find solutions and play better between the lines... A bit of complacency made the match tougher for us-we gave away a penalty to the opponent. These are the details that can decide the outcome of a game. I'm not looking at the standings: it's not the time to talk about fourth place; we're focused solely on our growth process."
🚫 Como approach their next match with uncertainty in several positions. The participation of Eduardo Goldaniga, Alvaro Morata, and Assane Diao remains doubtful as all three are dealing with muscle or physical issues, and decisions regarding their availability will be made closer to the game. Meanwhile, Jayden Addai is definitely not ready to help the team as he continues his recovery from a muscular injury.
Bologna
📣 Commenting on the 2-0 defeat to Atalanta, Vincenzo Italiano noted that it was the small details that cost them points: "We don't feel diminished by this loss. The team stayed in the game as long as they could, but we need to be sharper in the details if we want to stay at the top of the table." The coach also spoke about the role of the leaders: "Ferguson needs to contribute more because he is a very important player. To start picking up points again, everyone must give their all."
🚫 Bologna are also not at full strength. Key goalkeeper Lukasz Skorupski remains sidelined as he continues his recovery from a muscle injury. Additionally, Federico Bernardeschi is unavailable due to a collarbone injury.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
This season, Como have consistently taken the initiative in matches, applying pressure on opponents from the outset. At home, this pressure often translates into results. The Larians have scored before halftime in 7 of their last 8 home games. Considering Bologna's less than convincing form, a bet on Como to score in the first half appears to be a well-founded prediction.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Despite their attacking style, Como aren't a team that regularly overwhelms opponents with corners. In the current Serie A campaign, the hosts average 4.0 corners per match. Furthermore, they rarely exceed high totals in this category: Como's total under 5.5 corners has hit in 6 of their last 7 games, making this the most logical betting option.
Editor's Prediction
According to bookmakers, Como are the clear favorites in the upcoming clash, and it's hard to argue with that given the current circumstances. Bologna have recently struggled to even secure draws, let alone victories, and their home advantage seems to be fading away, with attacking issues becoming more apparent. In contrast, the "Larians" are riding a wave of confidence after three consecutive clean-sheet victories and look particularly strong at home, boasting seven wins and three draws across all competitions this season. Therefore, our main bet is a Como victory. We anticipate a scoreline of 2-0 on the board.
