Cremonese form and stats

With 1 Serie B win, 3 draws and 2 defeats from their home games, Cremonese are certainly not brimming with confidence. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for Cremonese. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

Cremonese manager P. Bisoli and his team return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Empoli (placed 3rd) in the Serie B. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Ascoli that ended 3-3.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Cremonese have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 16 games) they have won five times, drawn four and lost seven.

The manager P. Bisoli will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Pordenone in only three days.

The Cremonese fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 6 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Cremonese defense is not exactly impregnable. 9 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
