Verona vs Como Prediction: 10.05.2026 Serie A Preview

Serie A’s closing weeks offer up a meeting between Verona and Como at Marc’Antonio Bentegodi. The gulf between the sides is striking: Verona are battling at the bottom with a single win all season, while Como are pushing for a top six finish and European qualification under the management of Cesc Fàbregas. Verona, led by Paolo Sammarco, have not managed a league win in their last 19 matches, and the team’s confidence appears battered. The stats point to one-way traffic, but Serie A has a habit of springing a surprise.

Lucas Da Cunha stands out for Como. The midfielder boasts 2 goals and 1 assist in his last 5 outings and his creative influence will test a fragile Verona defense. For Verona, Kieron Bowie is the sole recent goal threat, having notched 2 goals despite minimal support. Both teams deploy very different approaches, but keepers Lorenzo Montipò (Verona) and Jean Butez (Como) may still have busy afternoons with the stakes this high.

Hot stat: Como have scored 8 goals in their last 5 Serie A matches, compared to just 2 for Verona—a disparity that sums up their respective seasons.

Verona vs Como prediction

We predict Como to win this match. The TipsGG punters team strongly favors the visitors due to both form and quality differences. Como have demonstrated composure in attack, scoring 59 goals this campaign—more than double Verona’s output. Verona’s defense concedes nearly 2 goals per match on average, and they lack firepower up front. Como have more control in midfield, better pass accuracy, and consistently convert possession into chances.

Como’s play style is possession-based, patient, and technical, evidenced by their high passing numbers (2,340 passes, 88% accuracy over the last 5 matches). They draw fewer fouls (55 compared to Verona’s 64 in the same span) and collect fewer yellow cards. Their discipline helps them avoid needless suspensions and maintain a full-strength lineup. Verona, on the other hand, struggle to keep the ball and often resort to fouling—evidenced by their 12 yellows in 5 matches. This leads to broken play and rarely allows them to build attacking momentum. Expect Como to dictate the tempo and exploit Verona’s mistakes.

Team Analysis

Verona’s recent games paint a bleak picture. They managed a 1-1 draw with Juventus in their latest outing—a credible result on paper. Yet, the team rarely threatened, scoring just twice in their last five games. The attack is blunt and the midfield offers little protection to the defense. Defensive lapses are common and discipline issues remain, as highlighted by their frequent bookings and high foul count. The winless streak continues to weigh heavily on the squad.

Como, by contrast, earned a solid 0-0 draw against Napoli last time out. They defended well against one of the league’s top attacks and created several decent chances of their own. In the last five games, Como scored 8 goals and showed their offensive variety with contributions from Da Cunha, Nicolas Paz, and Assane Diao. Como’s tactical flexibility and confidence in possession continue to be their main strengths. Their occasional defensive slip-ups are balanced by their ability to outscore opponents.

Possible Starting Lineups

Verona possible starting eleven

Montipò should return between the sticks after recent outings. The backline leans on experience with Nelsson and Frese, while Belghali and Oyegoke provide width. Gagliardini and Bernede anchor the midfield, offering the most passing and tackling in the squad. Bowie’s recent goals mean he leads the line—he remains the sole attacking bright spot. Verona likely stick with their usual 3-5-2 shape, hoping for midfield solidity.

Como possible starting eleven

Butez has been reliable in goal, while Kempf and Naveros have impressed at the back. The midfield four—Da Cunha, Perrone, Paz, and Diao—have been productive, with Da Cunha and Paz offering creativity and goal threat. Douvikas leads the attack as the central striker. Expect Como to line up in a 4-2-3-1, maximizing their midfield strength and control.

TipsGG Match Prediction

We predict a comfortable Como win. Verona’s defense is porous and their attack is nearly non-existent. Como’s technical superiority, organization, and confidence make them the clear pick. We expect Como to dominate possession, create more chances, and convert at least two or three opportunities. Verona will struggle to get on the scoresheet, and their discipline problems may hurt them further. Our best bet is Como to win with over 2.5 goals.
