Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Venezia, 19th position with 18 points and a negative goal difference of -19
Como, 13th position with 28 points and a negative goal difference of -10

Como and Venezia culminated the Serie A Week 28 match with a draw on Saturday, March 8, 2025, at the Giuseppe Sinigaglia Stadium in Como, Italy.  Venezia has secured their third consecutive draw, following matches against Lazio and Atalanta. This point is significant for Di Francesco’s squad, as they now sit three points ahead of Empoli with a game in hand. Meanwhile, Como is struggling to close the gap on Genoa, who remain three points ahead.

The match between Como and Venezia ended in a 1-1 draw, showcasing plenty of chances, particularly highlighted by the standout performance of MVP Radu. Goalkeepers were the stars of the show at Sinigaglia, with Butez making crucial saves against Duncan in the first half, while Radu kept Como at bay. Ikoné opened the scoring early in the second half and nearly added another, but a late penalty from Gytkjaer, following a foul on Carboni, ensured the teams shared the points.

Next Saturday at 18:00, Como will take on Milan at San Siro, while Venezia will host Napoli on Sunday at 12:30.

The match …

Como took the lead in the 49th minute when Jonathan Ikoné netted a goal with a left-footed shot into the bottom right corner. Ikoné had just entered the match! The former Fiorentina player displayed his talent by stealing the ball from the opposing team, charging towards the goal, and thanks to an unfortunate bounce off Nicolussi Caviglia, the ball came right back to him, allowing him to execute a diagonal shot from the left.

What a thrilling conclusion! Venezia managed to level the score in the 95th minute. Christian Gytkjær scored the equalizer, making it 1-1 with a penalty kick that he expertly placed in the top right corner with his right foot. The penalty was awarded after Ivan Smolcic committed a foul. Gytkjær’s shot was simply unstoppable for goalkeeper Jean Butez!

Stats before the game:

Over the past 30 years, starting from 1995, Como and Venezia have clashed 12 times in the league across Serie A, Serie B, and Serie C. The results are evenly matched, with each team securing four victories and four matches ending in a draw. Following their 2-2 tie in the first leg, there’s a chance that Como and Venezia could end up drawing both league encounters this season for the first time in the era of three points for a win. Notably, throughout this period, the two teams have never had the same outcome in both legs when competing in any of the top three divisions.

Como have won all of their last four home matches in Serie A, Serie B and Serie C against Venezia with an overall score of 8-1; in the period (since 2013/14), the orange-black-greens are the team against which the Lombards boast the highest number of home wins in professional leagues.

Interestingly, Como has a solid track record against Venezia.  They have never lost in their three previous Serie A meetings, which include one victory and two draws. Among the teams that Como remains unbeaten against in the top division.  They have played more matches only against Lecce, with a record of four wins and one draw in five encounters.

Since the beginning of November, Venezia have won only one of the 17 games played in Serie A (7D, 9P).  No team has done worse in the top five European leagues in the period (only one win also for Heidenheim, Monza and Reims). Furthermore, the orange-black-greens have not scored in four consecutive matches and have not done worse in the top division since the period between September and October 1998 (a streak of five consecutive matches without a goal in that case).

Assane Diao is the youngest player with at least five goals scored since the start of 2025 in the top five European leagues and their respective second divisions: five goals in nine Serie A appearances for Como for the 2005-born player since the start of this calendar year, four of which came in home matches.
