Sassuolo vs Como Predictions

• Como unbeaten in last nine away game
• Como have statistically best defence in league
• Como won reverse fixture 2-0

Como’s Stout defence to play key role again

Sassuolo take on Como in a game that pits strong home form against one of the most solid defensive units in the league. Como have been exceptional at the back this season, statistically the best defence in Serie A, conceding just 26 goals, and that resilience has been the foundation of their success.

Their away form as of late has also been outstanding, going unbeaten in their last nine matches on the road and winning six of those. Como have shown they can grind out results as well as control games, making them a very difficult side to break down.

Sassuolo have won three of their last five at home, which suggests they can be competitive here, but their inconsistency is a concern. Heavy defeats to Inter and Juventus, losing 5-0 and 3-0 respectively, highlight their vulnerability against stronger opposition.

With Como’s defensive strength and impressive away record, they look well-equipped to handle this test. Sassuolo may have their moments, but over the course of the match, Como will edge out a few better chances, and they are fancied to come out on top.

Another clean sheet may be in order, and a bet on 1-0 to The Voltaics is a worthy small investment.
