Comments and predictions for Como vs Cagliari: Home team explodes

Latest Como vs Cagliari team information

Manager Cesc Fabregas will be without Alberto Dossena, Sergi Roberto and Assane Diao – all of whom are out for the rest of the season. Midfielder Lucas Da Cunha picked up a thigh injury against Parma and is doubtful.

Gabriel Strefezza – who has scored five goals and assisted four this season – could return to the starting line-up after scoring the winner last week. Maxence Caqueret is likely to play deeper.

Tasos Douvikas, who suffered a foot injury and was benched in the last match, is ready to return to compete with Patrick Cutrone for a starting spot.

For Cagliari, centre-back Yerry Mina is the only confirmed absentee. Florinel Coman is training separately with an Achilles injury, while Alessandro Deiola and Gianluca Gaetano have minor issues but are still available.

Apart from Roberto Piccoli – the main striker – Nadir Zortea is another notable name of Cagliari. With the goal against Udinese, he has scored 6 goals in Serie A this season – more than in the last three seasons combined.

Latest football commentary on Como vs Cagliari

Como have made an impressive run in the final stages of a difficult season. They have won their last five Serie A games – the club’s longest winning streak in the top flight – and have conceded just one goal. Among newly promoted teams, only Lazio in 1973 have done better, suggesting Como’s record under new manager Cesc Fabregas is impressive.

Last week, Gabriel Strefezza continued his fine form with a late winner against Parma, extending his run of goal involvements to three games in a row. The win also saw Como climb into the top 10, continuing their journey towards a surprise top-half finish.

Como's success has largely come from quality signings in the winter transfer window such as goalkeeper Jean Butez, striker Tasos Douvikas and young winger Assane Diao.

The last time Como won three consecutive home games in Serie A was over 40 years ago. With their current form and perfect record against Cagliari in the league, they have reason to hope to continue their impressive streak.

Cagliari – the opponents this time – held Como to a 1-1 draw in the first leg in August. They are now 7 points above the relegation zone with only 3 rounds left. A win in Lombardy would officially help Cagliari stay in the league.

Despite losing 2-1 to Udinese last week, the islanders had previously beaten Hellas Verona for their third away win of the season – providing the necessary margin of safety.

If they win at Como, Cagliari will have back-to-back away wins in Serie A for the first time since September 2019, and equal last season's 36-point haul under Claudio Ranieri.

Coach Davide Nicola and his players still have two important matches against Venezia (who are fighting for relegation) and Napoli (who are fighting for the championship), but they hope to "finish" the relegation target this week so they can play comfortably in the last two rounds.
