Cesc Fàbregas's sensational Como 1907, who have rapidly transformed from top‑flight newcomers into contenders for European competition, will try to halt Inter Milan's flawless march towards a domestic double – the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia.
Como 1907
Como 1907 continue to surprise Italy. In February they showed maturity and tactical flexibility: whereas previously they took the initiative, they can now adapt to opponents. Against AC Milan (1:1) and Juventus (2:0) they collected four points, organised their defence well and applied pressing at the right moments. In the last league round they returned to an attacking style and confidently beat Lecce (3:1), having been 0:1 down during the match. In the Coppa Italia the side are making history – for the first time in 20 years they have reached the semi‑finals, eliminating three Serie A sides and, along the way, sensationally knocking out Napoli in a penalty shoot‑out.
Inter Milan
Inter Milan have recovered after being eliminated from the UEFA Champions League and once again look assured. The win over Genoa CFC (2:0) extended their unbeaten run in domestic competitions to 15 matches – the best among clubs from Europe's top five leagues. They are confidently moving towards a "golden double": the league is under control, and in the cup they got past Venezia and Torino, although they did concede in both matches.
Como 1907 vs Inter Milan Prediction
For Como 1907 this is a historic opportunity, and they have prepared thoroughly, resting key players in the league. The hosts have shown they can compete with the giants, and their pragmatic game model will cause the visitors a lot of problems. The visitors are stronger in terms of squad quality, but the hosts have lost at home only twice in 16 matches this season.
