Napoli vs Como: Full confirmed lineups for Serie A 2026-27 match
Both teams will face each other in the second Serie A game of the season.
Two teams with ambitions set on the top tiers of Italian football and a place in Europe’s elite will face off at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona tonight, as Napoli hosts last season’s most significant surprise package, Como, in a fascinating Matchday 2 battle.
The host team comes into the game full of confidence after a resounding victory on opening day. Meanwhile, the lakeside visitors come in Naples, ready to demonstrate that last year’s unprecedented Champions League qualifying was no fluke.
Historically, these two clubs have met 37 times, with Napoli earning 21 victories. This outstanding record offers the Neapolitans a significant psychological advantage entering the second round of the new Calcio season.
The new chapter in Naples has begun well for Massimiliano Allegri, who came to the club last summer with a clear objective: return the Scudetto to the city under the shadow of Vesuvius. In the first round, the Partenopei successfully navigated a difficult trip to Genoa, scoring late for a routine 2-0 victory.
On the other side, morale in the Como camp is sky-high after pulling off a genuinely historic feat last season by achieving straight qualification for the Champions League—a gigantic milestone never before reached in the club’s history. This semester, they are determined to demonstrate that their loftier goals are here to stay.
