The stage is set at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza where Milan will meet Calcio Como in an encounter that has more than just three points at stake. Milan hold the upper hand this season, but Como's recent displays suggest this match could provide some intriguing moments.

Milan are currently sitting second in Serie A, riding an impressive streak that showcases both their resilience and consistency. In contrast, Calcio Como have managed to surprise many by climbing to seventh, yet their momentum has hit a brief pause.

The most recent meeting between these sides, on January 15, 2026, saw Milan leave Como's ground with a convincing 3-1 victory. What's interesting from that match is how the stats defied the scoreline. Calcio Como dominated possession with 68%, launched 66 dangerous attacks and fired 18 shots. Yet Milan, who only created 17 dangerous attacks and managed just 7 shots, were clinical where it counted. Goals from Nkunku (penalty) and two from Rabiot turned the score after Kempf put Como in front, revealing Milan's deadly efficiency in front of goal.

This head-to-head pattern is no fluke. Milan have the edge in their recent meetings, taking all of their last three clashes against Calcio Como. Even over a larger sample, their supremacy holds, combining this output with a record of having remained undefeated in 33 of their last 40 league matches and 17 of their last 20 home games in all competitions.

Recent form paints a similar picture. Milan have won four and drawn two of their last six, conceding only 0.67 goals per match and scoring nearly double. At home, they are formidable, with two wins and a draw in their last three, and an average of 21 shots per game, conceding just 0.33 goals in that span.

Calcio Como, on the other hand, have found the net with ease lately, averaging 2.33 goals across their last six league fixtures. Their away record has also been solid, but not dominant, with only one loss in the last six. However, they come into this match winless in their last three outings in all competitions, a trend that undermines some of their previous momentum. Defensively, both teams mirror each other closely, conceding an average of 0.75 goals per match in the league this season.

One of the key things to watch is Como's ball retention and ability to create chances. With more than 63% possession and 6.33 shots on goal per match in recent games, they have the tools to control spells of play. However, their capacity to turn dominance into results dropped off when facing Milan earlier this year, as clinical finishing proved decisive.

Squad depth and availability will play their part. Milan have their full squad available, with no significant injuries or suspensions reported, which allows them to rotate and rest players as needed.

For Calcio Como, the absence of Álvaro Morata due to an adductor problem and Diego Carlos with a long-term issue could impact their attacking options and defensive experience, respectively.

Probable Lineups:

Milan

Goalkeeper: Mike Maignan

Defenders: Koni De Winter, Fikayo Tomori, Matteo Gabbia

Midfielders: Luka Modrić, Adrien Rabiot, Youssouf Fofana, Davide Bartesaghi, Zachary Athekame

Attackers: Christopher Nkunku, Ruben Loftus-Cheek

Calcio Como

Goalkeeper: Jean Butez

Defenders: Marc Oliver Kempf, Jacobo Ramón, Álex Valle, Mërgim Vojvoda

Midfielders: Nico Paz, Martin Baturina, Máximo Perrone, Jesús Rodríguez, Lucas Da Cunha

Attacker: Anastasios Douvikas

With Milan's unbeaten run in their last nine, and Como yet to snap their current three-match winless streak, the prediction leans in favor of the hosts. Milan are tipped to win with a 48% probability, likely edging a tight contest by a 1-0 scoreline.
