Como 1907 1-0 Venezia FC: Serie A Match Report, 1 November 2026

Como came in fifth on 20 points and Venezia bottom on three, and on the day the difference was one goal. Como 1907 1-0 Venezia FC was already the score at half-time; the second half was goalless. Beyond that the record is silent, with no scorer and no goal time, so there is nothing to say about how close Venezia came to a point. We had no pick on it: the site was not being updated over the turn of the month, and the match went by without a preview.

Como's numbers looked like those of the club that conceded fewer goals than anyone last season, 29 in 38 on the way to fourth on 71 points. They arrived with six wins, two draws and a defeat, goal difference +9, and eight goals conceded in nine games, only one of them at home. The defeat was 2-0 at Frosinone in September, and they had won their previous three, the latest 3-1 at Torino five days earlier.

Venezia, newly promoted, had one win from nine games, 1-0 at home to Napoli, against eight defeats, with six goals scored and 19 conceded. They had not scored in either of their two previous games, 1-0 at Genoa and 2-0 at home to Inter, and all four of their away games had been lost.

The clubs drew both of their 2024/25 league meetings, 2-2 in Venice and 1-1 in Como, so this one broke the pattern.

Como move to 23 points from ten games, goal difference +10, with four straight league wins, the longest run of their season. The gap over Venezia grows from 17 points to 20. It is a third clean sheet of the season, all three at home, and one goal conceded in four home games. Eight conceded in ten is very close to last season's rate of 29 in 38. The points rate, 2.3 a game against last season's 1.87, is the part that is running ahead, and ten games is too few to say it will last.

Venezia stay on 3 points and bottom, with nine defeats from ten and a goal difference of -14. They have failed to score in six of the ten, including the last three, and all five away games have been lost. For scale, Lecce stayed up last season on 38 points. Venezia would need 35 more from the 28 games left to match that, 1.25 a game against the 0.3 they have managed so far. Nothing is decided with 28 games to play, but that is a long climb.
