- Napoli have the most scored goals (51) in Serie A
- Cremonese is in the worst form (0-1-5)
Both sides have had time to rest since their previous competitive action. Let's have faith in that this will be an in-your-face fixture!
Napoli form and stats
Home games in the Serie A have been a walk in the park for Napoli so far, with 28 points won from 10 matches; 9 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses. The team is able to perform also as the away side, as they are nurturing a very healthy winning streak of five straight victories regardless of arena.
Napoli are returning here after visiting Spezia and winning with a 3-0 scoreline. Osimhen (2) and Kvaratskhelia scored the goal(s). Osimhen has scored in three games in a row. Badass! The attacking player Kvaratskhelia won the honour of being "man of the match" for Napoli with the rating of 8.84/10. Kvaratskhelia scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 4 times.
Before that, Napoli had a home game versus Roma which ended with a victory 2-1.Napoli are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in their league games, having scored an impressive 28 goals in 10 matches. Napoli are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 8 from 10 matches. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
Cremonese form and stats
There's been little loot from Cremonese's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 10 away games in the Serie A. Cremonese only have 0 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 5 draws.

Earlier, the Coppa Italia victory away at Roma.
