Cremonese form and stats

The story so far in the Serie B for Cremonese at their home stadium (Stadio Giovanni Zini) is 1 win, 1 draw and 2 defeats.

The Cremonese supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Virtus Entella in Serie B and win 2-1. Preceding that game was the away draw at Reggiana that finished 1-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Cremonese have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites).

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Serie B game versus Ascoli in only four days. This game is also played here at Stadio Giovanni Zini.

The lack of attacking qualities in Cremonese means that they have only scored 2 goals in 4 league home games, less than half a goal per match. 4 goals have been conceded.

Brescia form and stats

Playing away, Brescia have won 1 game, drawn 0 and suffered 3 defeats in the Serie B this season.

Brescia lost away at Reggina (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Frosinone.

Brescia goalkeeper Jesse Joronen had a great day against Reggina, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Brescia in our archives, and the results are: two wins for Brescia, one draw and four defeats.

A new game in only four days for Brescia, the Serie B home match versus Salernitana. Busy days.
