Como preview: Entertaining Como
Following their promotion in the season before last, Como have spent heavily under the management of Cesc Fabregas and they are an ambitious club that will believe they should be pushing for a top seven or eight finish and European qualification.
They come into this one on the back of an impressive 3-0 hammering of Sassuolo in the second round of the Coppa Italia, too, courtesy of a brace of goals scored by Jesus Rodriguez, as well as a strike from Greece international Tasos Douvikas.
Cremonese preview: Strong start for Cremonese
Following their promotion last season, Cremonese have started the campaign extremely well with the appointment of Davide Nicola a positive one. They have started this season with two victories and two draws in their four matches thus far.
The Cremona-based outfit began with back-to-back victories and they now come into this one on the back of back-to-back draws since the September international break, sharing goalless draws with Hellas Verona and then Parma.
Como team news: Nothing fresh
There are no fresh injury issues for Como to deal with this weekend as they work their way back to full fitness, with Ignace Van der Brempt closer than both Alberto Dossena and Assane Diao.
Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Butez; Posch, Goldaniga, Kempf, Alberto Moreno; Caqueret, Da Cunha; Addai, Baturina, Jesus Rodriguez; Douvikas
Unavailable: Dossena (Injured), Diao (Injured)
Questionable: Van der Brempt (Injured)
Cremonese team news: A few doubts
Cremonese are dealing with a few doubts ahead of their trip to Como this weekend, with Martin Payero set to be potentially sidelined alongside both Jeremy Sarmiento and Jamie Vardy.
Predicted XI (3-5-2): Audero; Terracciano, Baschirotto, Bianchetti; Zerbin, Grassi, Bondo, Vandeputte, Pezzella; Vazquez, Tonny Sanabria
Unavailable: Collocolo (Injured)
Questionable: Payero (Injured), Jeremy Sarmiento (Injured), Vardy (Injured)
Como vs Cremonese prediction
Como will get themselves on the front foot here. As was the case the other day against Sassuolo and as is the way in which Cesc Fabregas wants to play, Como will try and suffocate their opposition and play an aggressive and attacking style. They now face a Cremonese side that have perhaps got results above what their performance level has been so far this year and, as a result, siding with Como would therefore appear the way to go for this one.
