Como host faltering Manchester United in Champions League group clash
Como will host Manchester United at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia on 21 October in matchday three of the Champions League league stage, a fixture that arrives with the two sides heading in very different directions.
Como's recent sequence reads WLDLW, giving them two wins from their last five outings, while Manchester United have gone winless across their last five with a run of DLDDL that includes two defeats and three draws.
Form tells its own story
The contrast in results over the past five matches is stark: Como have managed two victories in that span, whereas Manchester United have yet to register a single win in the same period. That disparity makes Como the side with the more encouraging recent record heading into this European test.
For Manchester United, the trip to Como represents a chance to arrest a run that has yielded only draws and losses of late, though they will need to do so away from home against a side currently playing with more conviction.
Kick-off is scheduled for 16:45 UTC, with both clubs looking to build on or repair their standing in the league-stage table as the Champions League campaign continues to take shape.
