After securing consecutive victories over the past week, Lazio is set to visit Como, looking to conclude October on a strong note.
After serving a three-match ban and missing Lazio's recent Europa League victory against Twente, Dutch striker Tijjani Noslin made amends by scoring in their win over Genoa last weekend. His first-half goal helped the Biancocelesti secure the win, with late goals from Pedro and Matias Vecino sealing maximum points and extending their impressive run at Stadio Olimpico.
Lazio has now gone 10 games unbeaten in Serie A at home, bolstering a strong overall record as they compete on multiple fronts. Under Marco Baroni, the team has won six of their last seven matches across all competitions, scoring an average of 2.4 goals per game and taking all nine points available in the Europa League while keeping pace with the top six in Italy.
The last time Como hosted Lazio in the top flight, back in November 2002, current Atlético Madrid manager Diego Simeone scored for the Biancocelesti, highlighting how long Como has waited to compete among Italy's elite.
Since their promotion as second-tier runners-up last season, Como has picked up nine points so far—five more than at the same stage of their last Serie A campaign. However, after enjoying consecutive 3-2 victories, they have lost two of their last three matches, most recently falling 1-0 to Torino.
Prediction: Como 1-2 Lazio
