At Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on 1 November 2025, Napoli welcome Como in what could be a more tactical than explosive Serie A encounter. The champions seek to consolidate their position at the top, while the visitors continue to impress with their structure and discipline under Cesc Fàbregas.
Total Goals Pick: Under 2.5
The selection is Under 2.5 goals. Napoli’s recent preference for control over risk, paired with Como’s defensive organization, suggests a low-scoring affair. While Napoli will dominate possession, Como’s compact shape and ability to frustrate stronger sides make a goal-fest unlikely.
Napoli: Controlled Efficiency
The Partenopei have regained stability after a shaky September and are now stringing together consistent results. However, their attacking sharpness isn’t yet fully restored - they often slow the tempo once leading and rely on defensive solidity to close games out. At home, they remain dominant but pragmatic, frequently winning by narrow margins.
Como: Discipline and Belief
Fàbregas’ men have become one of Serie A’s pleasant surprises. Unbeaten in eight matches, they compensate for limited attacking firepower with compact defense and efficient ball retention. Their positional play and tactical awareness allow them to frustrate technically superior opponents, often dragging matches into tight, low-tempo contests.
