Serie A’s ninth round features a fascinating contest as Torino host Como 1907 at Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino. Both sides arrive with momentum, with Torino climbing under Ignazio Abate and Cesc Fàbregas’s Como mixing domestic consistency with a statement Champions League win.

Key Points

• Como have won the last three meetings with Torino, including 5-1 and 6-0 victories last season.
• Torino have taken 13 points from their last six Serie A matches and have won three league games in a row.
• Tasos Douvikas scored twice against Sassuolo after also finding the net in Como’s 4-1 Champions League win over Manchester United.
• Prediction: Calcio Como to win, with a 49% probability and a likely 2-1 scoreline.

Recent History

In their last two home meetings, Torino and Como have split the results evenly. Torino claimed one victory, while Como snatched the other, suggesting there is no overwhelming psychological advantage at this venue.

More tellingly, Torino have lost their last three encounters with Como across all venues, two of those defeats coming by a margin of 2 or more goals. Como’s 5-1 win in Turin and 6-0 home victory last season give the visitors a clear recent edge in this matchup.

Recent Form

Torino are rebounding from a rough start, stringing together some key results over their last six outings. They have claimed four wins, drawn one, and suffered just a single defeat. Their attack has found more consistency, averaging 1.83 goals scored and just 1.17 conceded per match in this stretch.

At home, Torino have won two of their last three fixtures, scoring 1.67 per match but also letting in 1.67, so defensive sharpness is still a concern. Abate’s side have just beaten Udinese, Parma and Monza in succession, with Kian Fitz-Jim, Rafik Belghali and Nikola Vlašić all contributing in the 3-2 win over Monza.

Como stand fifth in the league and their last six league games feature three wins, one draw, and two losses, matching Torino’s recent goal-scoring average at 1.83 per game while also conceding just 1.17. Away form has been particularly notable with 16.33 shots and 6.5 shots on target per contest, reflecting both creativity and threat in the final third.

Como’s underlying stats show a side comfortable dictating the tempo. Across the campaign, they average nearly 58% possession and produce more attacking output than Torino, raising their profile as genuine European contenders.

Overall Performance

Torino’s steady improvement sees them sitting eighth with a balanced record of four wins, one draw, and three defeats from eight matches. Thirteen goals scored, eleven conceded, and a positive goal difference of two encapsulate a competitive but not yet dominating side.

Como, meanwhile, are outperforming early expectations. Fifth overall, they boast five wins, two draws, and only one loss, outscoring their hosts 14 to 13 and holding one of the league’s better defensive records with just seven conceded. Their superior +7 goal difference is a testament to both efficiency and resilience.

Main Trends

Torino have found consistency at home, undefeated in 80% of their last ten home league games and winning half of their last sixteen. They are also undefeated in five of their last six Serie A outings and riding a four-match undefeated streak overall.

Como’s numbers are even more striking: 67% wins in all competitions over their last twelve matches, undefeated in 31 of the last 38, and winning by two or more goals in 10 of their last 26. Away from home, they have avoided defeat in 16 of their last 20 games and have collected 12 wins in that span.

Team News and Probable Lineups

Torino are expected to remain without Ricardo Rodriguez, while Niccolò Fortini and Emirhan İlkhan are still being assessed. Abate has recently switched between a back three and a back four, but the balance of recent selections points towards a 3-5-2 against a strong Como attack.

Torino probable XI: Lucas Perri; Pietro Comuzzo, Ardian Ismajli, Saúl Coco; Rafik Belghali, Kian Fitz-Jim, Rolando Mandragora, Nikola Vlašić, Alessio Cacciamani; Ché Adams, Giovanni Simeone.

The Adams-Simeone partnership remains the likeliest starting attack, with Sandro Kulenović and Duván Zapata offering bench options. Fitz-Jim’s goal against Monza strengthens his case, while Daniel Bragança is another midfield contender.

Como are still managing injuries to Trevoh Chalobah, Assane Diao and Jesús Rodriguez, while Moise Kean and Mattia Liberali are closer to returns. Fàbregas rotated for the 2-0 win over Sassuolo, when Douvikas scored both goals after also netting against Manchester United, and Nico Paz should come back into the XI after being rested in Serie A.

Como probable XI: Jean Butez; Yan Couto, Jacobo Ramon, Marc-Oliver Kempf, Álex Valle; Luis Milla, Máximo Perrone; Lucas Da Cunha, Nico Paz, Martin Baturina; Anastasios Douvikas.

Ramon’s goal in the Champions League and Douvikas’s scoring run give Como form players through the spine, while Maxence Caqueret, Samuele Ricci, Kaiki and Jayden Addai give Fàbregas strong rotation options if fatigue becomes a factor.

Prediction

Como have superior underlying stats, particularly away from home, and have been undefeated in 16 of their last 20 away fixtures. Their control of possession along with their run of winning three straight matches, all by at least two goals, hints at real momentum. Torino are in good form at home but their recent struggles against Como make this a challenging guise.

The prediction edges towards Calcio Como to claim victory, with a 49% probability leaning their way for a likely 2-1 win. Torino’s upturn and home advantage make them a genuine threat, but Como’s blend of defensive steel and direct attacking power may just swing the balance.
