Home Team: Inter Milan

Inter represent the archetype of an elite European powerhouse. Their defense is stacked with quality, particularly on the left side where Alessandro Bastoni and Federico Dimarco combine defensive solidity with attacking output, acting as a key launchpad for forward play.

Up front, the partnership of Lautaro Martínez and Marcus Thuram offers elite finishing and physical presence, capable of overwhelming most defenses. In midfield, Nicolò Barella leads with energy and intelligence, supported by Hakan Çalhanoğlu’s experience and Davide Frattesi’s dynamism.

Although Yann Sommer may not boast the highest valuation, his experience ensures reliability in goal. A recent record of 5 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses reflects consistency, with added confidence from playing at home.

Away Team: Como 1907

Como’s squad structure reflects their lower-tier origins, yet they possess notable bright spots. Midfield star Nicolás Paz stands out as the creative hub, whose vision and technique will be crucial in launching counterattacks against Inter.

In attack, players like Assane Diao and Rodríguez rely on pace and directness to exploit limited opportunities. Defensively, however, the gap in quality is significant—Jacobo Ramón is among the few standout performers but faces a daunting challenge.

Managed by Cesc Fàbregas, Como show promise and tactical intelligence. Their identical recent record (5 wins, 3 draws, 2 losses) highlights good form, but the step up in competition level remains a major hurdle.

Tactical Analysis

Inter Milan:
Expected to dominate possession and tempo. Wing-backs like Denzel Dumfries and Dimarco will stretch the pitch, while midfield control aims to neutralize Paz. The attacking duo of Lautaro and Thuram will look to capitalize on sustained pressure and positional play.

Como:
Likely to adopt a compact, low-block structure, prioritizing defensive discipline. Paz will be the key outlet—tasked with evading pressure and delivering precise long passes to trigger counters. Speed on the break and set pieces represent their best chances to score.
