Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the Serie A match.
Fiorentina's dazzling attack leaves no room for competition, and the defence of Serie A newcomers Como is unlikely to be an exception. Como have repeatedly shown vulnerability under pressure from attacking opponents, so Fiorentina are expected to have plenty of scoring opportunities.
Como 1907
Since the start of October, Como have collected only two points in six Serie A rounds. After drawing with Genoa (1:1), they are just one point above the relegation zone, with their defence conceding 23 goals—worse only than Verona's 27. Since their promotion to the top flight, Como have yet to keep a clean sheet, and their main midfielder, Sergi Roberto, won't recover from injury in time.
Fiorentina
In the same period since the beginning of last month, Fiorentina have netted 25 goals in nine matches across all competitions. Following their victory over Hellas Verona (3:1), Fiorentina have closed in on leaders Napoli, and only Inter Milan (26) and Atalanta (31) have scored more than Fiorentina's 25 goals in Serie A. Moise Kean, the former Juventus striker, has been a revelation, sitting second in the scoring chart with 8+1.
Como 1907 vs Fiorentina Prediction
At Como's ground, Fiorentina are set to impose their style from the start. The inexperienced opponents are unlikely to withstand the attacking assault from Fiorentina.
