Como - Juventus predictions

Como have a big mountain to climb. The task ahead is difficult but not impossible but with 3.04 slapped on home win in this match, this one is for the risk-takers.

With the betting odds being what they are, this match could still go either way. Still, the fact that Juventus are generally the weaker team makes this match an uphill battle for them.

The hosts returned from their most recent Serie A trip with a point in their bag. Based on the betting odds available, it was always going to be a tight game and Como can be satisfied with the fact they held level both at the halftime mark and after the full-time whistle.

Juventus’s home performance against Milan in the previous round wasn’t spectacular, ending in a 0:0 stalemate. Neither side managed to pull ahead, but Juve can be happier with this outcome considering the balance of power wasn’t in their favour.

A successful Over 2.5 Goals bet seems very unlikely, based on Juve’s previous performance. None of their 5 most recent Serie A matches featured more than 2 goals.

With 9 points earned so far, the home team are 9th in the standings. That’s a decent start and it puts them just 3 points behind a Europa League qualifying spot. That said, they’re not very likely to earn any points in this upcoming match.

Juve have a tough match ahead of them, but they earned a lot of admiration for how they performed in these early stages of the season. Placed at 4th on the table, they can afford lofty ambitions even though the road to realize them is long.

Most bookies are expecting the away team to take the win based on the previous time we saw this matchup play in the Serie A. Although the records are only as recent as the previous season, Juve defeated Como with a convincing goal difference.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

Our advice is to go for an Under 2.5 Goals market, though it was likely not your first instinct. While the probability is rather low compared to what you’re used to from Under 2.5 bets, it compares favourably to the 1.73 odds offered by 888Sport.
