Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 0-1
Como
Spal will be aiming to put an end to their three-game losing run when they take on Como on Saturday. Spal suffered yet another dip in form, with the team dropping to the relegation zone, and, as a result, their Serie B status is in great danger. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, while Niccolo Zanellato should be recalled to the starting XI. Moreno Longo’s troops, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Sudtirol. Como are only one point clear of the relegation zone, meaning that Saturday’s clash is of big importance for the visiting team.
Since Spal conceded eight goals in total in the last three league fixtures, we are tempted to put our money on the visitors this time out. Keep in mind, though, that all Fabregas, Cerri, and Odenthal are banned for the match, speaking of the away team.
