Serie A: Como – Inter 03/03/2026

Betting on Asian Handicap

First match of the Italian Cup semifinal, with the return leg at Inter’s home ground.

The Cup is rarely a priority for the top Italian teams, but for Como a possible trophy would be a huge success. Fabregas’ team are fighting for a place in next season’s Champions League through the league and that is no surprise. It is a serious two year project, with the right coach selection and significant spending in recent transfer windows.

Inter are again the best team in Italy, but despite being 10 points ahead of second placed Milan, overall they have not had an outstanding season. In Italy there are complaints about refereeing decisions in their favor, and the recent elimination with two defeats against Bodo Glimt has strengthened those voices. On Sunday they face the big derby against Milan, where a win would practically secure the league title.

Fresh, since they had no European commitments this season, Como are also targeting the Cup. They have a very strong squad and now is the time to challenge Inter, who are more burdened and likely to rotate some key players.

Qualification will probably be decided in the second leg. However, there is a feeling that Como is taking the competition more seriously. The bookmakers price Inter as slight favorites and leave room to back the home side. At odds clearly above 2.00, we choose the Asian handicap 0, which returns our stake in case of a draw.
