Frosinone vs Como Prediction & Betting Tips (20 September)

Frosinone host Como at the Stadio Benito Stirpe on Sunday, 20 September 2026, in one of the most intriguing Serie A Round 5 fixtures of the 2026/27 season. The newly-promoted Ciociaria side, back in the top flight under Massimiliano Alvini after finishing second in Serie B last term, have made an impressive start with 7 points from their opening four games, leaving them 7th in the table. Como, meanwhile, sit 3rd on 10 points under Cesc Fàbregas and arrive fresh from an electric run that includes a 4-1 home triumph over RB Leipzig in Europe and a 2-1 victory over Parma, following their emphatic 4-1 win away at Genoa earlier this month.

The betting markets strongly favour the visitors, with European odds pricing a Frosinone win at 6.12, the draw at 4.50, and a Como victory at just 1.62, reflecting the Lariani's superior firepower and squad depth. Frosinone's own form has been quietly solid: a narrow defeat to Juventus on the opening day was followed by a stunning 3-0 win at Fiorentina, a thrilling 3-2 home success against Venezia, and a hard-earned 1-1 draw at Genoa last weekend, though they will miss midfielder Florian Grillitsch through injury.

Alvini is expected to line up his 4-2-3-1 with Lorenzo Palmisani in goal behind Anthony Oyono, Giorgio Cittadini, Gabriele Calvani and Gabriele Bracaglia, with Patrizio Masini and Giacomo Calò anchoring midfield behind Romano Schmid, supporting forwards Giorgi Kvernadze and top scorer Antonio Raimondo. Como can call on an enviable 2026/27 squad featuring Robert Sánchez in goal, Yan Couto, Jacobo Ramón, Marc-Oliver Kempf and Álex Valle in defence, Máximo Perrone and Lucas Da Cunha in midfield, and a devastating attack of Assane Diao, Nico Paz, Martin Baturina and Moise Kean, with the only significant absentee the injured Jayden Addai.

With Como averaging over three goals per game and both teams boasting 100% BTTS records so far this season, goals look guaranteed at the Benito Stirpe. Frosinone's counter-attacking threat through Bîrligea, Ghedjemis and Zerbin off the bench should ensure the hosts find the net, but Como's relentless possession game and individual quality in the final third — spearheaded by Kean and the in-form Baturina and Diao — should ultimately prove decisive. Our prediction is a 1-3 away win for Como, a result priced at an attractive 11.75 in the European correct-score mar
