Buy Sassuolo vs Como FC tickets for the 2026/27 Season. The match is scheduled for Sunday 31 January 2027 at 16:00 local time (15:00 UK) at the Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore in Reggio Emilia, on matchday 22 of Serie A. Serie A confirms final kick-off slots a few weeks in advance, so the game could still move within that weekend.

This is one of the newest fixtures in the Italian top flight. The two clubs met in Serie A for the first time only in November 2025, and they have won one game each since. Supporters planning more than one trip to Reggio Emilia can see every home date on the Sassuolo tickets listings.
It also brings together two very different club stories. Sassuolo are a small-town side backed by the Mapei group who have spent most of the last decade in Serie A. Como are a historic Lombard club rebuilt with heavy investment, who went from Serie B to the Champions League in two seasons. The return fixture in Lombardy takes place in late October, so this is the second meeting of the campaign.
Start with the visitors. Como finished fourth in Serie A in 2025/26 with 71 points and qualified for the Champions League for the first time in the club's history. A side that plays attacking football under Cesc Fabregas now draws neutral interest far beyond Lake Como, and away matches against them sell more strongly than they did two years ago.
The travelling support is growing too. Close to 1,000 Como fans made the trip to the Mapei Stadium for a Friday night game in April 2026, and a Sunday afternoon slot is far easier for supporters coming from Lombardy. Reggio Emilia is just over 200 km from Como by road, a manageable day trip that many will make.
The home side has its own reasons to fill the ground. Sassuolo finished 11th in 2025/26, their first season back after winning promotion from Serie B, and a comfortable mid-table finish has restored confidence around the club. Beating a Champions League side on home turf is the sort of result supporters remember, and Sassuolo did exactly that in April.
Be realistic about the scale of demand, though. The Mapei Stadium holds 21,525 and Sassuolo's home crowds are modest by Serie A standards, so this is not a sell-out in the way that visits from Inter Milan or Juventus can be. The pressure falls on specific areas: central seats in the two long stands, blocks of seats together for groups and the away allocation for Como supporters.
Timing plays a part as well. Matchday 22 comes a few weeks after the winter break, when supporters have had fewer home games to attend over the festive period. A Sunday afternoon kick-off also suits families and visitors who want to combine the match with a weekend in Emilia-Romagna, which keeps mid-priced seats moving once the presale opens.
Yes, for most of the stadium. Sassuolo sell single-match tickets through their own online ticket platform, the club store in Sassuolo and Vivaticket outlets, with presale usually opening around a week before each fixture. Tickets can also be bought at the stadium box office on match day when seats remain.
There is one important restriction. The Tribuna Sud, the home end behind the goal, has been reserved for holders of the Sassuolo Card in recent seasons, with the card taken out by a cut-off date before the campaign began. Visitors without that card should focus on the Tribuna Est and Tribuna Ovest, the two long stands along the sides of the pitch.
Como supporters face their own rules. The away sector in the Tribuna Nord opens under conditions set by the local authorities for each fixture, and sales usually close the evening before the match with no away tickets sold on the day. Fans who miss that window, or who want to sit with friends supporting Sassuolo, often end up looking for seats in the home stands instead.
The marketplace offers another route. Sellers on 1BoxOffice list seats they already hold, so buyers can compare stands and prices without waiting for a presale window or worrying about a card requirement. For overseas visitors and mixed groups, it is often the simplest way to secure seats together.
Every ticket in Italy carries the holder's name. A legitimate sale therefore involves reassigning that name to the buyer or issuing the seat under the buyer's details. Listings on 1BoxOffice explain how and when that happens, which is why the delivery notes matter as much as the stand you choose.
Five factors shape the price of a seat for this match. Location comes first, with central seats in the Tribuna Ovest priced above the outer blocks and the Tribuna Est. Demand is the second, and seats together in groups of four or more thin out earlier than singles and pairs.
Fixture timing matters, as a Sunday afternoon in late January draws a bigger crowd than a midweek evening game. The opponent adds weight, because Como's Champions League status has lifted interest in their away games. Hospitality sets the ceiling, with lounge packages sitting well above standard seats for the 2026/27 season.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tribuna Est outer blocks | £30 – £55 | Budget-aware buyers and first-timers | Side-on view from the longside opposite the main stand |
| Tribuna Est central | £45 – £80 | Couples and small groups | Near halfway with a clear view of both ends |
| Tribuna Ovest outer blocks | £50 – £90 | Buyers who want the main-stand setting | Covered seats on the side of the tunnel and dugouts |
| Premium seating (Tribuna Ovest central) | £70 – £130+ | Buyers marking a special trip | The central view with the benches just below |
| Hospitality / VIP | £150 – £350+ | Corporate guests and milestone occasions | Lounge access, dining and premium seats in one package |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
Face values at the Mapei Stadium are low by European standards. Club prices have run from around €10 to €170 depending on the opponent and the seat, with fixtures against the top clubs placed in the top price band. Resale prices reflect access to those seats once the club's own allocation is gone rather than the printed price.
This fixture usually sits in the middle of Sassuolo's price range for the season. It carries less of a premium than the visits of Inter Milan, AC Milan or Napoli, but Como's rise means it is no longer priced like a meeting with a newly promoted side. For buyers who want to see a Champions League team at a mid-table price, Sassuolo vs Como FC tickets are a sensible choice.
Families should look at how the club prices children. Through Sassuolo's own channels, reduced tickets have been available for younger fans, and very young children have been admitted free without an assigned seat. Resale listings are usually priced per seat regardless of age, which makes buying early through the club worth checking for parents.
The Mapei Stadium opened in 1995 as the home of Reggiana and was the first club-owned stadium in Italy. The Mapei group took over the ground in 2013, and Sassuolo have played their home games there ever since, around 20 km from their own town. The Mapei Stadium seating plan shows how each stand is laid out before you choose.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tribuna Ovest central | Buyers who want the central view | Upper to premium | Main stand with the VIP seats and boxes; the priciest standard area |
| Tribuna Ovest outer blocks | Couples who want the main-stand setting | Mid to upper | Slightly angled view at a lower price than the central blocks |
| Tribuna Est central | Neutrals and first-time visitors | Mid | The largest stand at 6,573 seats, facing the main stand |
| Tribuna Est outer blocks | Groups on a tighter spend | Lower | A good-value way to sit together with a side-on view |
| Tribuna Sud (home end) | Committed home supporters | Lower | Home of the Sassuolo ultras; recently limited to Sassuolo Card holders |
| Tribuna Nord (away end) | Como supporters | Club allocation | Up to 4,000 places; opening and conditions set for each fixture |
Neutral buyers and undecided fans should aim for the Tribuna Est and keep colours plain, as the rest of the ground outside the away end is home territory. For other home dates at the same venue, buyers can compare all Mapei Stadium tickets across the season.
Think about the view you want before you think about price. The stands sit close to the pitch with no running track in between, so even the outer blocks feel near the action. The Tribuna Ovest is the covered main stand, which matters on a wet January afternoon in the Po valley.
Check your gate before you set off. The stadium stands in the Mancasale area on the northern edge of Reggio Emilia, and each stand has its own entrances around the outside of the ground. Your ticket shows the gate number, and arriving at the right side of the stadium saves a long walk around the perimeter shortly before kick-off.
Sassuolo's hospitality is centred on the Tribuna Ovest, where the Mapei Lounge and the Sassuolo Lounge serve guests before the match and at half-time. The main stand also holds 32 private boxes and a VIP stand of 515 seats overlooking the halfway line.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Lounge package | Fans upgrading for a first visit | Food and drink in a club lounge with a central main-stand seat |
| VIP stand seat | Supporters marking a special trip | Premium seating near halfway with hospitality access |
| Private box | Small business groups | A private space for a group with its own view of the pitch |
| Corporate package | Senior guests and milestone occasions | A full matchday built around dining and a relaxed arrival |
Packages differ in food, drink, seat position and arrival time, so read each listing closely before you commit. Resale packages sit above the club's own prices once club stock is gone, and availability is limited because the lounges and boxes are small.
If you are weighing hospitality against a premium seat, compare what each includes rather than the headline price. A central Tribuna Ovest seat plus lunch in Reggio Emilia's old town can cost less than a lounge package, but the package gives you a warm room, a relaxed arrival and no queue at the turnstile.
Hospitality also suits mixed groups where not everyone is a committed fan. A lounge gives guests somewhere comfortable for the build-up and half-time, while the seats outside still put them close to the pitch.
Serie A tickets are personalised, and identity checks happen at the gates. Know which delivery method your listing uses well before match week.
| Delivery Type | What to Check |
|---|---|
| Mobile ticket | The account or app transfer details and when your seller expects to send them |
| E-ticket (PDF) | That the file shows your stand, gate, row and seat and displays clearly |
| Ticket issued in your name | That the name matches your passport or ID card exactly |
| Collection in Reggio Emilia | The meeting point, the time window and a contact number for the day |
Read the listing notes for delivery timing and stand restrictions. Carry a passport or ID card, because entry without matching identification can be refused. Charge your phone before you leave, and allow time for security checks at the outer gates.
For busier fixtures, sellers sometimes release tickets only in match week, once names can be assigned. That is normal. Your order page shows the expected dispatch date, and the buyer guarantee covers you if tickets do not arrive in time.
Plan to arrive at least an hour before kick-off. The approach roads and car parks around the stadium fill up in the final half hour, and security checks take time at every entrance. Arriving early also gives you time to find your gate without rushing.
1BoxOffice has operated as a verified marketplace since 2006, and every order carries a 150% money-back guarantee if tickets are not delivered as described.

Reggio Emilia is easy to reach for overseas visitors. Bologna's airport is about an hour away by road or rail, and Milan's airports are within two hours. Reggio Emilia AV Mediopadana, the high-speed station on the Milan to Bologna line, lies close to the stadium and can be walked via Via Gramsci. Reggio Emilia's central station connects with urban bus line 5 towards the ground.
If you are travelling from abroad, choose mobile or e-ticket delivery and ask for seats together when you buy rather than hoping for them later. Serie A confirms exact kick-off slots a few weeks in advance, so refundable hotels and flexible rail fares are worth the small premium. Buyers watching from the UAE and the Gulf should note that a 16:00 kick-off in Italy is 19:00 in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, a comfortable evening slot for anyone who cannot travel.
Many visitors base themselves in Bologna or Parma and travel in on match day. Both cities are a short train ride away, and each offers a wider choice of hotels than Reggio Emilia itself. Allow extra time on the way back, as trains and car parks near the stadium stay busy for the first hour after the final whistle.
For most of their histories these clubs moved in different worlds. Como played in Serie A in several spells between the 1940s and 2003, while Sassuolo spent decades in the lower leagues before reaching the top flight for the first time in 2013. When Sassuolo were in Serie A, Como were usually in Serie B or below, and when Como returned in 2024, Sassuolo had just been relegated.
Their paths finally crossed in 2025/26. Como won both of the first two competitive meetings that autumn, beating Sassuolo 3-0 in the Coppa Italia in September and 2-0 in Serie A in November. Sassuolo hit back in April at the Mapei Stadium, scoring twice in two minutes before half-time to win 2-1 and dent Como's push for the Champions League.
Sassuolo rotated heavily for the Coppa Italia tie at the Sinigaglia, and goals from Jesús Rodríguez and Douvikas helped Como to a 3-0 win and a last-16 meeting with Fiorentina. The league games were closer. Como won the November meeting in Lombardy without conceding, while the April game turned on a burst of three goals in the space of five minutes before half-time, two of them for the home side.
What makes this fixture interesting is the contrast in how each club built its team. Sassuolo grew from a small-town side into a Serie A regular with the backing of the Mapei group, and they have long been known for developing young Italian players. Como have been rebuilt with major investment, a famous former player in the dugout and a team drawn from across Europe.
Both clubs have also known recent ups and downs. Sassuolo were relegated in 2024 after 11 seasons in Serie A and won promotion back at the first attempt. Como climbed from Serie B to a top-four finish in two seasons, a rise that has made them one of the most talked-about clubs in Italy.

Figures are calculated from the verified results below, cross-checked against Sky Sport Italia, ESPN, Italpress and club match reports.
The record is level on wins, with Como ahead by a single goal. Each side has won its home game, so the Mapei Stadium has a 100% record for Sassuolo in this fixture so far. January's meeting will be the one that tips the balance in one direction.
A sample of two games is small, so buyers should treat these figures as a starting point rather than a pattern. What they do show is a home side that has found a way to trouble Como in Reggio Emilia, which points towards another competitive afternoon at the Mapei Stadium.

Visiting fans use the Tribuna Nord, the away end behind one goal. Como supporters sitting in home stands should keep club colours out of sight.
As soon as your travel dates are fixed. Central seats and blocks of seats together tend to go first once the presale opens.
Not for the Tribuna Est or Tribuna Ovest. The card has been required only for the Tribuna Sud home end, and every ticket still needs a passport or ID card that matches the name on it.
Yes, when the listing states that seats are together. Pairs are the easiest to find, while groups of four or more should buy early and choose a single listing.
Take urban bus line 5 from Reggio Emilia's central station, or walk from the AV Mediopadana station via Via Gramsci. Allow extra time on the way back, as the roads around the ground stay busy after the final whistle.
