Como will look to extend their unbeaten start to the Serie A season when they visit Genoa in the third round of the Italian top flight on 4 September 2026.
The visitors sit seventh in the table with four points from their opening two matches, while Genoa are 16th and without a point after losing both of their games. The match therefore presents Como with the chance to strengthen their early position, while Genoa will be aiming to recover from a difficult beginning to their campaign.
Genoa have been beaten by Napoli and Lazio in their first two league fixtures. They opened with a 2-0 defeat by Napoli before suffering a narrow 1-0 loss against Lazio.
The club did, however, record a convincing victory in the Coppa Italia. Genoa defeated Ascoli 4-1 to progress to the next round, offering the side some encouragement before returning to league action.
Como, meanwhile, began their Serie A campaign with a 1-1 draw against Udinese. They then claimed a notable 2-1 victory over Napoli, taking their points tally to four.
That start leaves Como two points behind sixth-placed Atalanta. A further victory at Genoa would keep them among the early pace-setters and increase the pressure on their hosts, who are still searching for their first league points.
Head-to-head record
Como are regarded as the favourites for the meeting based on the available assessment.
The most recent meeting between the two clubs ended in a 2-0 win for Como. Across the past five matches between the sides, Como have won twice, while three games have finished level.
The statistics supplied for the fixture also state that Napoli have won once in five games. That figure is included among the recent comparison data for the match.
Prediction
Como’s stronger opening to the season, combined with Genoa’s two defeats in Serie A, makes the away side the expected choice in the prediction.
The forecast is for Como to beat Genoa, with a recommended bet on an away victory. Como’s win over Napoli has strengthened confidence in their prospects, while Genoa must improve significantly after failing to score in either of their first two league defeats.
The match will be played on 4 September 2026 and is the third-round fixture of the Serie A season.
