- Inter v Como
- Kick-off: 2026-11-08 17:00 UTC
- Ground: San Siro
- Status: Under way 56′
- Score: Inter 2 – 0 Como

Cesc Fàbregas took one question after Wednesday's 9-1 in Lens and left. Anastasios Douvikas had scored three, Como had nine points from four Champions League games, and their coach had already put Inter off until afterwards: "we'll think about them from the day after tomorrow".

Before that match he had also named the cost. Como's Champions League list has 15 outfield players, and "preserving energy is complicated". Trevoh Chalobah has not recovered in time for Sunday and joins Moise Kean and Assane Diao among those missing. Como reach San Siro four days after Lens and two points behind Inter, who fell to third when Roma beat Sassuolo 3-0 on Saturday, so a win would take them above.

Nothing in the record says it will. Inter have won the last 11 Serie A meetings, the latest 4-3 at Como in April, and have not lost to Como at home since 1950; Fàbregas has yet to take a league point from them.

Inter come without their captain, Lautaro Martínez, at the end of a week that began with a 3-1 derby defeat, after which Cristian Chivu said his side lacked "nastiness, a sense of danger". They won 3-0 at Feyenoord on Tuesday through Yann Bisseck, Pio Esposito and Piotr Zieliński, and Esposito is in line to start beside Marcus Thuram in Lautaro's place, with Alessandro Bastoni back from his European suspension. At home they have won all five league games and scored 17.

Como have not kept a clean sheet away from home this season. To finish the weekend above Inter, they will need the goals they found in Lens to come with them to Milan.

## Our call

Inter should win on a home record that is perfect so far, in a match with goals at both ends.

## Coming in

Inter won 3-0 at Feyenoord on Tuesday, three days after losing the derby 3-1, and are second on 25 points; Como won 9-1 at Lens on Wednesday and are fourth on 23.

## Between them

Inter won the last meeting 4-3 at Como in April and have won the last 11 Serie A meetings between the sides.

## The hinge

Como have taken 13 points from their last five league matches and conceded two goals in them.

## Missing

Inter: Lautaro Martínez (injury), Luis Henrique (injury). Como: Moise Kean (injury), Trevoh Chalobah (injury), Assane Diao (injury), Jesús Rodriguez (injury), Jayden Addai (injury).

## Line-ups

Pio Esposito starts beside Marcus Thuram for Inter, with Alessandro Bastoni in the back three and Yann Bisseck among the substitutes. For Como, Robert Sánchez is in goal with Jean Butez on the bench, and Anastasios Douvikas leads the line ahead of Nico Paz and Martin Baturina.
