Como will host Napoli at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia on Sunday in another round of the italian league campaign

Como’s fight to stay up in Serie A meets a big hurdle this Sunday when league leader Napoli visit. The hosts are coming off a shock win that saw them rise to 13th in the standings. Ahead of the match, we have a prediction below.

Como moved five points above the relegation zone with a 2-0 away win at Fiorentina last week. That was a massive boost to their survival bid. Having won 15 of their 25 points this season at home, Como will be confident they can stand up to the league leaders.

Their run against teams currently in the top five is not great though. Three losses in the last four home league matches further puts a dent on their chances.

Napoli will come into this game seeking to complete a double against Como. Playing at home in their first meeting, Napoli registered a comfortable 3-1 win.

The past few matches haven’t returned the best of results for Napoli though. They are coming from a 2-2 draw with Lazio in their most recent match. For the third straight time in that clash, Napoli dropped points from a winning position.

The league leaders have now drawn each of their last three matches, leaving their title charge under threat. Napoli have actually stayed top because the side behind them, Inter Milan, has also been on a poor run.
