Como take on the visitors Inter in the first leg of Coppa Italia semifinals. The match will be played on March, March 3rd at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia (Como).
Como had long been unable to return to the Serie A level. When it finally happened in 2024, it seemed that the chosen approach was questionable, with an active focus on players who had already passed their peak. However, Como, effectively led by a coach only starting his managerial career, delivered an excellent result by finishing in the upper part of the table. Now, instead of a “second-season syndrome,” there has been a new surge. In Serie A, Como have been consistently staying in the upper third of the standings. After a draw with Milan, they managed to beat Juventus and, more comfortably, Lecce. In the cup, they started back in the summer against Sudtirol, then dealt with Sassuolo and Fiorentina. In the quarter-finals away to Napoli, after a 1–1 draw, they advanced on penalties. Recent league results confirm that Como have found stability and confidence, especially against strong opposition. Their home performances, in particular, show that this progress is no coincidence but part of a steady upward trend.

Inter hope to achieve success, but have suffered some painful blows so far. The Nerazzurri managed to complete a “treble” last season, yet ultimately ended up losing everywhere. As a result, changes followed after a heavy 0–5 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final. The new coach faced setbacks of his own, first in the summer at the Club World Cup, and then in January in the Super Cup. On the other hand, the Italians progressed confidently to the play-offs, where they unexpectedly collapsed against Bodo/Glimt, losing both matches and being eliminated already in February. In Serie A, however, Inter managed to pull clear of all their pursuers, including their city rivals. Recently, they snatched a dramatic 3–2 win over Juventus. That was followed by more straightforward, confident victories against Lecce and Genoa. In the cup, the opponents were much simpler: Venezia were thrashed, and Torino were also beaten, albeit 2–1. Despite the setbacks in international competitions, Inter’s domestic form has been convincing and consistent. The recent run of wins suggests they are regaining momentum at a crucial stage of the season.
All five official meetings were won by the Nerazzurri. Despite all the progress made by the hosts, the Nerazzurri are still a class above. The bet is on Inter to win with a “0” handicap.
Prediction for the match: Inter to win with 0.0 handicap.
