Como are gearing up to welcome Venezia to the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia in what could be a pivotal clash in the Serie A relegation battle this March. Cesc Fàbregas' Como side enters the match with some momentum behind them, having picked up three wins from their last six home games. Their visitors? Well, they're having a tougher time of it. Venezia, under Eusebio Di Francesco, haven't tasted victory in their last ten matches. Ouch!When these two met back in December, they served up a four-goal thriller that ended 2-2. But the home advantage could be significant this time around. Como's recent home form shows they're finding their feet at the Sinigaglia, with impressive wins against the likes of Napoli and Udinese. The latter saw them put four past their opponents – not bad for a team many tipped for immediate relegation!

If you're a Venezia fan, you might want to look away now. The away form makes for pretty grim reading. No wins in their last five road trips, just two points from a possible fifteen. Scoring has been their biggest problem – just three goals in those five games.Is there any silver lining? Well, they did manage to hold high-flying Atalanta to a goalless draw in their most recent away fixture. That's something to build on, right?Di Francesco needs to find answers quickly. His team has developed a knack for draws – five from their last ten – but at this stage of the season, single points might not be enough to keep their head above water. They've conceded 11 goals while scoring just 5 in their last ten matches. Not exactly the stuff of survival campaigns.

Looking at the head-to-head record, Como holds a slight edge with four wins to Venezia's three, plus three draws sprinkled in between. The goal count makes for interesting reading too – Como have notched 15 against Venezia's 12 in their previous meetings.Remember that 2-2 draw back in December? It showed both teams can find the net against each other, but defensive frailties were on display too. Has either manager managed to shore things up since then?Como certainly seem to have found more consistency at home. Their 50% win rate at the Sinigaglia gives them a platform to build on. And those victories against Napoli and Fiorentina? They weren't flukes. Fàbregas has his team playing with confidence, especially in front of their own fans.

This match brings together two managers with very different backgrounds. In the home dugout, we have Cesc Fàbregas – the former Barcelona, Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder who's still finding his feet in management. His playing career was decorated with trophies, but can he translate that winning mentality to his Como squad?Across from him stands the more experienced Eusebio Di Francesco. He's had his ups and downs in Italian football, hasn't he? Remember his time at Roma? Those Champions League nights?Both managers have different problems to solve. Fàbregas needs to maintain his team's home form while improving their away results. Di Francesco? He just needs wins – from anywhere, anyhow. The bookies have Como as clear favorites with a 60.4% chance of victory compared to Venezia's 14.6%. But football isn't played on paper, is it?As the two teams prepare to face off at the Sinigaglia, it's all to play for. Can Como continue their push away from danger? Will Venezia finally end their winless streak? We'll find out soon enough!
