Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Roma & Cremonese face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Coppa Italia. All the pre-match information is available here!
It's no vacation for neither Roma nor Cremonese as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Roma form and stats
Last season their Coppa Italia adventure ended in the quarter-finals.When playing at home in the Serie A, Roma have managed 5 wins, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 9 games.
The fans are hoping that Roma will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the game against Napoli. The attacking player Shaarawy was named "man of the match" for Roma with the rating of 7.25/10. Shaarawy scored one goal, hit one key pass and had 24 successful passes (of 29 total).
A strong away win before that one, visiting Spezia and winning 2-0.Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Serie A game versus Empoli in only three days. This game is also played here at Stadio Olimpico.
Roma has scored 10 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. Roma are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadio Olimpico in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 5 from 9 matches.
Cremonese form and stats
Last season their Coppa Italia adventure ended in the 1st round.Cremonese have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Serie A, after 0-5-5 (10 played).
Home advantage was not enough for Cremonese in their previous game as they lost hosting Inter, 1-2. Cremonese goalkeeper Carnesecchi could enjoy a first-class day's work against Inter, but despite making eight saves the loss could not be avoided.
A 1-1 draw at Bologna's stadium before that.After this away game Cremonese return home for a Serie A game against Lecce. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Cremonese have conceded 18 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
