AS Roma travel to Como Calcio with the belt on the line
AS Roma bring their lineal championship belt to Como on October 11th, having defended it eight times in their current reign. The visitors enter on strong form with four wins in their last five, while Como look to bounce back from a shutout loss to Frosinone and reclaim a belt they've held seven times previously.
Worth watching
- Roma's recent defensive solidity (two clean sheets in last five) against a Como side that has scored in four of their last five
- Como's home advantage seeking to extend their head-to-head edge, having won three of the last five meetings including a 2-1 victory in March 2026
- Roma's unbeaten start stumbling with one draw versus Como trying to recover momentum after their first loss of the season
The numbers
The betting line favors Como at home despite Roma's superior form, with the Elo model nearly even at 47% for the visitors. The head-to-head history leans slightly toward Roma all-time (13-7-8), but Como have had recent success in this matchup, winning the most recent encounter 2-1. The over/under at 2.5 reflects that four of the last five meetings have featured exactly two or three total goals.
Roma's form heading into this match is compelling, with four wins in five games and only a draw against Inter Milan breaking their streak. While Como have shown they can trouble Roma historically, their recent 2-0 loss to Frosinone raises questions about consistency. Roma's strong season record of 4-0-1 and their ability to grind out results, including back-to-back 2-0 and 2-1 wins before the Inter draw, suggests they have the resilience to navigate a tricky away fixture. The belt continues its journey with the visitors in a tight contest.
