Starting things off on Saturday in Serie A will be a clash between aspiring Como and newcomers Cremonense. What is interesting is that this fixture can be considered a Lombardy derby.
Como 1907 Team News
After a promising 2024/25 Serie A campaign, Como and the people behind them stated that they had intentions to build something with this club. Manager Cesc Fabregas was heavily linked with the vacant Bayer Leverkusen head coach spot, but ultimately opted to continue his work in Como. Thus far in this season, the team has accumulated 7 points from 4 games (2 wins, a draw and a loss). At home, Como have been dominant and unbeaten with 1 win and a draw in Serie A and 2 home victories in the Coppa Italia. Heading into the fixture with Cremonese, Como will be confident of their abilities, especially after coming off a late away win against Fiorentina and a 3-0 thrashing of Sassulo during the midweek.
US Cremonese Team News
Cremonese’s results so far have been really good, especially for a newly-promoted side. In fact, after matchday 4, the team sits higher than Como and is actually in the Serie A top 6. An impressive 1-2 away win to AC Milan was followed by a 3-2 home win against Sassuolo. In their last 2 league outings, however, Cremonese failed to score a goal, but also kept clean sheets with the 0-0 result popping up against Verona and Parma. Still, the team has managed to extend its unbeaten league run to 4 games and considering their status as a newcomer, this can be considered a major success.
Head-to-Head-Games
Cremonese have won all of the last 5 H2H games with Como, albeit their most recent meetings were in Serie B in the 23/24 season. Como’s last home win against Cremonese dates back to 2016 in the Coppa Italia.

Como 1907 vs US Cremonese Betting Prediction
Despite a heavily tilted H2H statistic towards Cremonese and their undefeated status in Serie A after 4 matchdays, my pick for this game is for a Como win and over 1.5 goals. The hosts have established themselves as a tough team to defeat, especially at home, where they have only 2 losses across their last 10 league fixtures as hosts, with both losses coming to giants such as Juventus and Inter.
