Como enter their European campaign in impressive form, having put together an unbeaten run across their last five fixtures. Recent competitive victories over Genoa (4-1) and Napoli (2-1), combined with stubborn draws against high-calibre opposition like Liverpool and Arsenal in August, demonstrate a well-organised side capable of testing elite teams. With home advantage on their side, Como will look to maintain their positive momentum.
RB Leipzig travel to Italy with more mixed fortunes, having won two and lost three of their previous five outings. While they recorded commanding victories against Borussia Monchengladbach (3-0) and Eintracht Trier (6-0), their away performances against top-tier opponents have shown vulnerabilities, evidenced by 3-1 defeats at both Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich. Leipzig also contend with significant squad absences, with key contributors like Castello Lukeba and Christoph Baumgartner sidelined through injury.
Given Como's recent consistency and Leipzig's travel struggles, the hosts appear well-positioned to remain competitive in this European opener.

Settled results only — every published pick is recorded win or lose. Full track record →
Based on at least 20 settled predictions.Both teams have displayed reliable scoring form recently, with Como finding the net in four of their last five matches and scoring six goals across their last two games alone. RB Leipzig have also scored in four of their past five encounters, yet conceded three goals in each of their last two domestic away defeats, making goals for both sides a probable scenario.
Como are undefeated in their last five outings across all competitions, including wins over Napoli and Genoa. In contrast, RB Leipzig have dropped three of their last five matches, with away defeats at Leeds, Bayern Munich, and Werder Bremen highlighting defensive vulnerabilities on the road. Backing the hosts to secure at least a point reflects both their solid form and Leipzig's recent travel difficulties alongside notable player absences like Lukeba and Baumgartner.
