SSC Napoli - Como

Napoli aim to maintain their positive start to the campaign as they return to the Diego Armando Maradona for this matchday 2 Serie A clash on 30 August 2026. The hosts arrive in high spirits following a clinical 2-0 victory over Genoa in their opening fixture, a result that provides a solid foundation for their first home outing of the season. Defensive stability remains a priority for the side, though they must navigate this encounter without the injured Alessandro Buongiorno, forcing a reshuffle in the backline where Amir Rrahmani and Rafa Marin are expected to anchor the defense in front of Alex Meret.

Como travel to face their opponents after a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Udinese in their league opener. Recent history between these two clubs suggests a tight affair, with their last three meetings across all competitions ending in draws, including a goalless stalemate in May 2026. With the expected XI featuring the creative talents of Nico Paz and Martin Baturina in midfield, the visitors will look to disrupt Napoli’s rhythm and secure their first win of the new term.
