Rafa Benitez analyzes Serie A restart and Como-Roma matchup

Former Inter Milan coach Rafa Benitez has shared his analysis regarding the resumption of Serie A following a long break. Benitez noted that the extended hiatus, similar to the period during the Qatar World Cup, presents challenges for teams due to the lack of consistent training time and the dispersal of players globally.

Benitez identified Inter Milan as the strongest team in the league, highlighting the return of Hakan Calhanoglu as a key factor for their upcoming schedule. He also pointed to the Como vs. Roma match as a potential indicator of which team might challenge Inter's dominance.

Regarding the Como vs. Roma fixture, Benitez described it as a highly anticipated tactical battle between managers Cesc Fabregas and Gian Piero Gasperini. He praised the talent within both squads, specifically mentioning Como's young players like Nico Paz and Baturina, as well as Roma's tactical approach and key players such as Paulo Dybala and Malen.
