Como and Fiorentina promises to be an intriguing encounter in the Italian Serie A. Como, recently promoted to the top flight, will seek to establish their presence against a more seasoned Fiorentina side, known for its tactical prowess and attacking flair. The contrasting trajectories of these teams add layers of complexity; while Como aims for survival in the league, Fiorentina aspires for European qualification.
With the two sides sitting on the extreme opposite ends of the league standings it would be hard to disagree with that. Como have failed to add to their two wins and are just a point above the relegation zone. 
From their last six matches, Como have managed just two points, failing to make the best of their scoring form. They only failed to score twice in the last nine matches.
On the other hand, Fiorentina are doing well coming into this game. Before going into the international break, they posted a 3-1 win at home to Verona. 
With that they recovered from a 2-1 loss at APOEL in the Conference League. An in-form side, Fiorentina have only suffered two defeats across all competitions this season. 
Como possible starting lineup: Audero; Goldaniga, Dossena, Kempf, Moreno; Engelhardt, Da Cunha; Verdi, Paz, Fadera; Cutrone
Fiorentina possible starting lineup: De Gea; Dodo, Comuzzo, Ranieri, Gosens; Adli, Cataldi, Bove; Colpani, Beltran; Kean
Como are going through a rough period losing four of their last six games. In the previous round, Cesc Fabregas’ team drew 1-1 away with Genoa and raised their points tally to ten in the 15th position but are just one point above the relegation zone. They conceded first in nine of their 12 matches.
Serie A if we consider the last six rounds. The Violas recorded their sixth consecutive win after beating Verona 3-1 in round 12. They are now in third place with 25 points, which is the most they have accumulated at this stage since 2015. Fiorentina won their last three away games.
Predictions regarding the match's outcome lean favorably towards Fiorentina due to their historical dominance and superior squad depth. However, Como's home advantage could potentially level the playing field. Tactical formations and player fitness will play critical roles in determining each team's success on match day . Anticipated lineups suggest that both coaches may adopt aggressive strategies to secure vital points early in the season.
Fans can expect a thrilling display of football as both teams vie for supremacy. For those unable to attend live matches, various platforms offer free online streaming options so supporters can follow this exciting clash closely.
