Como take on the visitors Udinese in the round 21 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, January 20th at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia (Como).
"Como" are showing themselves as expected. After their debut at the Serie A level a couple of decades ago, the "Ozerniki" disappeared from the radar for a long time. Moreover, they were going through bankruptcy. But serious, wealthy investors entered the project. And this brought rapid progress, the logical result of which was 2nd place in Serie B in 2024 and, accordingly, the right to finally return to Calcio. The prospects of the team's performances there, under the leadership of the inexperienced Cesc, even though a number of players were strengthened in the summer, were assessed skeptically. Moreover, the emphasis was mainly on well-known, but past their peak, older players. But already in the 2nd round, points were taken, in September there were victories, and in the winter it turned out to improve noticeably. In December, they won against both Lecce and Roma, and with Lazio, already in January, they tied 1-1. But they still lost to Milan 1-2.

"Udinese" have long been accustomed to the fact that they play with a simple goal - not to be relegated to the second division. In the last draw, this also happened, although everything was decided in the last round. And they overtook the relegated "Frosinone" by just a couple of points (37 against 35) - however, in the end, they took a relatively high 17th position. In the summer, Runjaic was invited to Friuli. Costa started off well, collecting 10 points out of 12 in the first 4 rounds of the new Serie A. Then they added victories over "Lecce" and "Cagliari" at home, but how much the club lost all autumn! Everything changed for the better in the winter - first they won 2-1 on the field of the outsider, "Monza", and after the defeat of "Napoli" they constantly took points. “Fiorentina” was beaten, and ended with draws with “Torino”, “Verona” and “Atalanta”.
In total, they played 5 matches, and only once did the “lakemen” cling to a draw. At the beginning of autumn, having arrived in Friuli for the first time since the beginning of the century, the newcomer lost 0-1. The hosts are more loyal, but experienced guests are capable of taking points here - we expect that they will not lose here.
Prediction for the match: Udinese not to lose (X2).
