Como vs Napoli prediction 02.05.2026 | Serie A

Como are playing a magnificent season. However, given the team they assembled, this season is not a great surprise, and the Biancoblù are just where they belong. After 34 rounds, they sit in 5th place with 61 points and are only three points away from the desired 4th place. Fabregas's squad had a bad period in the first part of April, when they won just one point in three Serie A games, and then also suffered elimination from the Coppa Italia Semi-Finals by Inter (3:2 aggregate). Still, they played much better than the results represent, and it was only a matter of time before they started winning games again. Indeed, the Biancoblù bounced back with a 2:0 win over Genoa in their previous game, ending their winless streak.

Unfortunately, in that win over Genoa, their mega-star, Nico Paz, suffered an injury, leaving the field, and eventually going to the hospital. However, it seems that the injury isn't serious and the young Argentinian should be ready for the Napoli game. On the other hand, Mergim Vojvoda, Sergi Roberto, and Jayden Addai should remain sidelined with their injuries.

Napoli, a reigning Italian champion, had two completely different campaigns in the Champions League and in Serie A. In the CL, Napoli completely disappointed, finishing 30th out of 36 teams. However, in the Serie A, Napoli did very well, winning 69 points in 34 rounds - 2.03 per game. Even though they are ten points behind Inter, Conte's side averages only 0.12 points per game less than last year, when they won the title. So, we cannot really say they were bad despite a big point gap between them and Inter. 

David Neres, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Antonio Vergara, and Romelu Lukaku should remain sidelined with their injuries. According to Italian media reports, Romelu Lukaku is very interested in leaving the club and joining AC Milan.
