Matchday 11 of Serie A sees Como 1907 take the pitch at the ‘Scala del Calcio’, Inter Milan’s Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. Cesc Fàbregas’ side travel to face Inter in their final league outing before the November international break, with kick-off scheduled for Sunday, 8 November at 6:00 PM.
The Biancoblu arrive at the Meazza riding a massive wave of momentum, fueled by six consecutive wins across all competitions. That run reached a crescendo in the midweek with a staggering, historic 9-1 Champions League rout of Lens, away in France. Inter, however, were equally dominant on European duty, cruising to a 3-0 away victory over Feyenoord in Rotterdam.
Captain Lucas Da Cunha and his teammates will look to keep that blistering form going, but they run straight into the reigning Italian champions, who boast a flawless home record in the league this season. It promises to be an exacting yet exhilarating test for Fàbregas’ men, who will undoubtedly stick to their guns and attack the game with their trademark courage and identity.
The words of Como 1907 head coach Cesc Fàbregas ahead of Inter-Como 1907
"Tomorrow is a very important match for us. We know we are up against what I consider to be the strongest team in Italy. We come into the game in good form, but, more importantly, it will be a valuable test of where we are as a team and how much further we still have to go.
"We need to play our football, without allowing nerves or pressure to get the better of us. We've come close in our recent meetings with Inter, but when they raise their level, they're extremely strong. In matches like these, it is often the smallest details that make the biggest difference. We must make the most of our opportunities while remaining true to our identity and the way we want to play.
"We are still a very young team, learning and growing. We want to become a great team, but we know we are not there yet. We need to keep improving, with consistency, humility, our feet firmly on the ground, always maintaining a sense of balance."
Inter
Sitting second in the table behind Lazio, Inter have collected eight wins, one draw, and just a single defeat from their opening ten Serie A fixtures. Cristian Chivu’s side remain laser-focused on defending the Scudetto they lifted last spring, aiming to sustain this relentless pace throughout the campaign.
Chivu boasts an enviable squad: deep, technically gifted, and lethal in front of goal. Only Roma have outscored the Nerazzurri in the early going, and those goals have arrived from all over the pitch. Inter consistently push numbers forward, with center-backs Alessandro Bastoni and Yann Bisseck known for timing their attacking bursts with tremendous effectiveness.
The 3-5-2 system remains Inter’s signature blueprint. Hakan Çalhanoğlu and Nicolò Barella serve as the heartbeat of a stacked midfield complemented by the class and international experience of Piotr Zieliński, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Petar Sučić. Out wide, Andy Diouf on the right and Carlos Augusto on the left have been Chivu’s preferred pair of late, with Federico Dimarco always on hand to provide elite delivery. Leading the line is Marcus Thuram, the club’s leading league marksman with five goals-stepping up during the absence of injured captain Lautaro Martínez, who sits close behind on four. Sebastiano Esposito and Ange-Yoan Bonny round out a versatile forward department.
Head-to-head
Inter and Como 1907 have squared off 30 times in Serie A, with the Nerazzurri holding a commanding edge of 21 wins. Como have managed three draws and six victories over their Lombardy rivals, though only one of those triumphs came at the Meazza—a 2–1 win all the way back in 1950, courtesy of goals from Ercole Rabitti and Vittorio Ghiandi.
