Lazio-Como is a match valid for the 20th day of Serie A and is played on Friday at 20:45: stats, news, likely lineups, prediction, live TV, streaming.
Marco Baroni’s Lazio’s 2025 has started in the worst way, and the defeat in the heartfelt derby with Roma (2-0) represents a bad setback, the second in the space of just under a month along with the very heavy 0-6 with Inter last Dec. 16.
The Biancocelesti, who had given the impression that they had turned over a new leaf right away with the away win in Lecce and the home draw with Atalanta – a match, on the whole, played better than the Dea – collapsed in one of the most anticipated matches of the season, despite starting with the favor of the odds given the huge lead over their “cousins” (now reduced to 12 points).
Lazio dominated possession but compared to the Giallorossi they were more fuming and less concrete. Claudio Ranieri’s team, making great use of the counterattack weapon, scored two goals in the first 18 minutes and then defended excellently, rendering Zaccagni and his teammates’ assaults in vain. To continue chasing the Champions goal – currently the Capitolini are fourth, +3 on the pair Juventus and Fiorentina – Lazio cannot afford to cry over spilled milk: they need 3 points in the challenge at the Olimpico with Como, which opens the first day of the return leg. The Larians, however, get there on the wings of enthusiasm because of the fine success in the salvation clash with Lecce, felled 2-0 by Nico Paz and Cutrone. Second home win in a row for Cesc Fabregas’ lineup, back out of the red zone but called upon to improve their external performance (only one win for Como away from home).
Lazio-Como: the latest lineup news
The derby has left after-effects at Lazio: Baroni will have to do without the disqualified Castellanos, Zaccagni and Gila, three important pawns between attack and defense for the former Lecce and Verona coach. It will therefore be an experimental lineup for the biancocelesti, who will have to deal with a very short bench. In the attacking trident will act Tchaouna, Dia and Isaksen. Also unavailable are Lazzari, Vecino, Noslin and Pedro (injured).
Fabregas is without Gabrielloni, Perrone, Sergi Roberto and the disqualified Goldaniga. Up front Cutrone will start from 1′, supported by Nico Paz and Strefezza. Confirmed three-man defense with Iovine, Kempf and Dossena.

The Prediction
At the end of October it was a biancoceleste monologue, with Baroni’s men ramping up in the second half (1-5), taking advantage of the Larian’s defensive difficulties. The defeat in the derby was a bad blow, but Lazio should come back to record a positive result against Como, in a match that, as in the first leg, does not promise to be poor in goals: at least one on each side and more than two overall.
The probable formations of Lazio-Como
LAZIO (4-3-3): Provedel; Marusic, Gigot, Romagnoli, Nuno Tavares; Guendouzi, Rovella, Dele-Bashiru; Tchaouna, Dia, Isaksen.
COMO (3-4-2-1): Reina; Iovine, Kempf, Dossena; van der Brempt, Engelhardt, Da Cunha, Fadera; Strefezza, Nico Paz; Cutrone.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 2-1
