Como vs Cagliari

Como is only the second newly promoted team able to win six games in a row in a single Serie A season, after Lazio between February and April 1973 (eight in that case).

Como have won three home games in a row in Serie A for the first time since October-November 1984 with Ottavio Bianchi on the bench.

Gabriel Strefezza, six goals in this championship, has found the net in three matches in a row for only the second time in his career in Serie A – the first with the SPAL shirt between September and October 2022.

Como and Cagliari have met seven times in Serie A: three wins for the Lombardi, two for the Rossoblù and two draws.

Cagliari are one of only eight teams against which Como have won 100% home games in Serie A (3/3). Among these sides, only against Palermo and Triestina (four both) have Como played more matches on their own patch in the competition.

Como have won each of their last five Serie A matches, conceding only one goal in the process. Amongst newly-promoted teams, the only side to win more successive games in the competition was Lazio in 1973 (eight in that case).

Como have won their last two Serie A home matches, both 1-0 (against Torino and Genoa), and neither in the top-flight this season nor in 2002/03 have they won three home games in a row, with the last time coming in October-November 1984.

Cagliari have lost three of their last four Serie A matches (W1), as many defeats as they suffered in their previous eight matches in the competition (W2 D3).
