Udinese 1-1 Como result, stats and report

Parma and Udinese played out a goalless draw at the Tardini, with Adrián Bernabé's missed penalty the defining moment in a match that neither side truly deserved to win.

Anastasios Douvikas scored twice in the second half to give Como a deserved 2-0 victory over a toothless Sassuolo side who failed to register a single shot on target.

Como have been hitting teams for fun in this season's Champions League, and AEK Athens arrive at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia having shipped eight goals in their last five outings. Something has to give.

Udinese arrive in Bologna without a single point from their last five Serie A matches. Bologna are far from convincing themselves, but this is exactly the kind of fixture a home side should win.

Como have won three of their last five Serie A matches and carry genuine momentum into Saturday's home fixture. Cagliari arrive with three straight wins behind them but a 4-0 hammering by Monza still fresh in the memory.

Udinese head into Saturday's clash without a Serie A win in their last five matches. Roma arrive with genuine momentum and a defence that is starting to look convincing.

Bruno Fernandes' public rejection of blame for Manchester United's 4-1 defeat at Como has triggered a sharp rebuttal from manager Michael Carrick and split pundits over the captain's conduct. Coming a week after Lisandro Martinez's criticism of the club's transfer strategy, it points to a deeper leadership crisis at Old Trafford.

Como, Serie D amateurs as recently as 2017, host a Manchester United side winless in six matches, their worst run since 2018-19. The fixture lays bare both Como's remarkable five-year rise under Cesc Fabregas and the depth of United's current crisis.
