The visiting Benevento side should be favourites in this visit to Cremonese, as the away team holds a 39 point advantage from their 28 league games this season.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Cremonese form and stats
Cremonese have played 13 Serie B games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-4-4 (wins-draws-losses).
A strong away win for Cremonese against Frosinone the last match, as Michele Castagnetti and Vittorio Parigini were on target. Before that game, the home loss against Empoli with the scoreline 2-3.
The Cremonese fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 13 matches. 14 goals have been conceded.
Benevento form and stats
Benevento, who have the most scored goals (54) in Serie B, have an excellent away record in the Serie B so far with 9-3-1 from 13 games. Things are running smoothly for Benevento who hasn't tasted defeat in their last 19 matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Pescara. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Pescara game have they lost an away game, meaning Benevento has taken points from eight away matches in a row.
Benevento won their last game, 4-0 versus Pescara played at home. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Perugia at their stadium, the result 2-1.
As you can tell from the results above, Benevento was very dominant against Pescara, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with Riccardo Improta, Marco Sau, Gabriele Moncini and Roberto Insigne providing the goals.
