The Coppa Italia quarter-final match between Napoli and Como will take place on 10 February at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Naples. Napoli vs Como: prediction, betting odds and statistics.
Napoli
In the previous round, the home side edged past Cagliari with difficulty (1:1, on pens 9:8). Despite their status, the team have won in normal time in just one of their last nine Coppa Italia matches (five draws, three defeats). In addition, in four of their previous five games in this tournament, Napoli have not scored more than one goal. The club have reached the national cup quarter-finals for the first time in the last five seasons, and the hosts last got past this stage in 2020.
- Napoli have conceded in six of their previous eight Coppa Italia games.
- On home soil in this tournament, the team have not won after 90 minutes in six of their last seven matches (five draws, one defeat).
- There have been goals in both halves in six of the hosts' previous eight national cup matches.
Potential Napoli Lineup (3-4-3)*
Vanja Milinkovic-Savic – Juan Jesus, Sam Beukema, Matias Olivera – Antonio Vergara, Leonardo Spinazzola, Elif Elmas, Pasquale Mazzocchi – Matteo Politano, Lorenzo Lucca, Giuseppe Ambrosio.
Midfielders Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa, Billy Gilmour and Kevin De Bruyne, defender Giovanni Di Lorenzo, as well as forward David Neres, will miss the match through injury.
Como
Cesc Fabregas' side came through the previous round more convincingly, beating Fiorentina away from home 3:1. The visitors have won a third straight Coppa Italia match, and Como have not had such a long winning run in this tournament since 2001. However, it is worth noting that the club have kept a clean sheet in just one of their last nine games in the national cup. The away side cannot boast any major achievements in the Coppa Italia; for now, they have recorded the second-best result in their history after reaching the semi-finals in the 1985/86 season.
- Como have not scored more than one goal in five of their last six national cup matches.
- Away from home in this tournament, the club have lost five of their previous seven matches (one win, one draw).
- The team have conceded in seven consecutive away games in the national cup.
Potential Como Lineup (4-5-1)*
Jean Butez – Alberto Moreno, Jacobo Ramon, Ignace Van der Brempt, Diego Carlos – Maxence Caqueret, Jesus Rodriguez, Nicolas-Gerrit Kuhn, Lucas da Cunha, Sergi Roberto – Anastasios Douvikas.
Napoli vs Como: Match Prediction
The teams met in November in the league and were unable to find a winner – 0:0. It is difficult to favour either side in the upcoming match as well, with the opponents well matched. However, another goalless draw is hard to believe in, especially from Como. Cesc Fabregas' side rank in the top four for goals scored in the current Serie A campaign. In this season’s national cup, the team have not scored fewer than three goals in a match. What is more, the club have scored exactly three goals in four consecutive official away fixtures.
The hosts have not been reliable at the back this season. Antonio Conte's side have the worst record for goals conceded among the teams in the European places. In 2026, Napoli have faced three relegation battlers and allowed each of them to find the net. The numbers are no better in the Coppa Italia, where they have managed a clean sheet in only two of their last eight matches.
Prediction: Como, over 0.5 goals
