21:00 on January 24, 2026 - Serie A Round
The clash between Como and Torino at the Stadio Ennio Tardini takes place against a backdrop of two teams at completely opposite extremes in terms of form. While the home team Como is soaring high in the European cup qualification group, Torino is struggling to find its footing with a series of poor results.
The contrast in form and league position.
Currently, Como is ranked 6th in the league table with 37 points after 21 rounds. The home team's form is very stable, with 3 wins, 1 draw, and only 1 loss in their last 5 matches. In particular, their home ground has been a strong fortress this season, as they have only lost 1 match there, winning 5 and drawing 4.
Conversely, Torino are in freefall, currently sitting in 14th place with 23 points. The visitors have lost 4 of their last 5 matches. Torino's biggest problem lies in their defense, having conceded 34 goals since the start of the season, an average of 1.6 goals per game. Their away record is also poor, with 4 defeats in their last 10 away games.
Head-to-head history and key statistics
Recent head-to-head history favors the home team. In the last three encounters, Como won two matches and lost only one. Most notably, Como secured a crushing 5-1 victory away at Torino in November 2025.
- Como:They average 1.5 goals per game and possess a solid defense with only 0.8 goals conceded per game.
- Torino:They only scored an average of 1.0 goal per game but conceded one and a half times as many as their opponents.
Team news: Torino is in serious crisis.
The visiting team, Torino, is facing a wave of injuries, with A. Masina, Z. Savva, and P. Schuurs definitely unavailable. More seriously, nine other players are doubtful due to various reasons such as calf and knee injuries and illness, including key players like G. Simeone, I. Ilic, and K. Asllani.
On Como's side, they will also be without J. Addai and A. Diao due to thigh injuries. The availability of key striker Alvaro Morata and defender E. Goldaniga remains uncertain. However, compared to their opponents, Como's squad is still considered to be much deeper and more stable.
Tactical analysis and predictions
With the home advantage and superior form, Como is expected to take control of the game from the start. Torino's leaky defense will be a target for the home team's strikers to exploit. Meanwhile, the absence of so many key players casts serious doubt on Torino's ability to spring a surprise.
Based on in-depth analysis, Como has a 50% chance of winning and a 50% chance of the match ending in a draw. A favorable result for the home team is the most likely scenario in this match.
