Como will invite Atalanta to Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia in Serie A on Saturday. The hosts have won five of their 21 games thus far and are in 13th place with 22 points in the league table.
La Dea are third in the standings with 43 points, seven fewer than league leaders Napoli.
The Lariani registered their first win of the year earlier this week, with a 4-1 home triumph over Udinese. Gabriel Strefezza picked up a goal and assisted in the first half. Both teams had a player sent off in the second half.
The visitors returned to winning ways after five games on Tuesday, defeating Sturm Graz 5-0 at home in the UEFA Champions League. Mateo Retegui continued his fine form with a goal in the first half and Mario Pašalić, Charles De Ketelaere, Ademola Lookman, and Marco Brescianini scored after the break.
It was their first win of 2025 and they had suffered a 3-2 home loss to Napoli in Serie A last week. Retegui and Lookman were on the scoresheet in the first and second halves respectively but Romelu Lukaku scored the match-winner for Napoli in the 78th minute.

Como vs Atalanta Prediction
The Lariani returned to winning ways after two games earlier this week and will look to build on that form. They have scored in all but one of their last eight league games. They have won three of their last four home games, scoring nine goals, and will look to continue their prolific run here.
Edoardo Goldaniga was sent off last week and will serve a suspension here. Dele Alli joined the club on a free transfer earlier this week and is likely to start from the bench. Ignace Van Der Brempt was subbed off in the first half against Udinese and is a doubt. Sergi Roberto has a muscle strain and is a doubt.
La Dea are winless in their last four league outings, though three have ended in draws. They are unbeaten in their last three away games in this fixture, recording one win and keeping two clean sheets.
Gian Piero Gasperini will be without the services of Isak Hien as the defender is suspended. Odilon Kossounou and Gianluca Scamacca are long-term absentees while Nicolò Zaniolo is a doubt.
While Como have a good recent home record, the visitors have the better goalscoring record and should be able to eke out a narrow win.
