Insights:
  • Bologna have the most dropped points from leading position (20) in Serie A
  • Cremonese have yet to win a game.

These are hustling days for the team playing at home, as they had a game only four days ago in the Coppa Italia. That game was an away game at Lazio, so at least Bologna are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Bologna form and stats

4 victories, 3 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Bologna have to build on here at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara in the Serie A.

The fans hope that Bologna will fight back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away defeat in the Coppa Italia fixture against Lazio. Defender Lucumí got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.4/10. Lucumí won 1 of 1 duels.

In the preceding match a 2-1 victory visiting Udinese.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Bologna handle that role? We have found 7 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 2 wins, 5 draws and 0 defeats.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Bologna, as the Serie A home game vs Spezia is only four days away.

The Bologna fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 9 matches. Bologna are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 8 from 9 matches.

Cremonese form and stats

There's been little loot from Cremonese's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 9 away games in the Serie A. Cremonese only have 0 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 4 draws. With the Cremonese losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

It's another away fixture for the visitors, as they travelled to Napoli in their previous outing. The Coppa Italia battle ended 2-2. Midfield player Meïté was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.63/10. Meïté dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 37 successful passes (of 45 total).

A loss against Monza was the result prior to that, in a Serie A home game.

Cremonese are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 3 draws and 2 defeats. From a total of 6 matches.

As for defending, Cremonese rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 17 goals from these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Statistics for the former two meetings involving these two participants are: zero wins for Bologna, two draws and zero wins for Cremonese. Over 2,5 goals: one time; under 2,5 goals: one game.
