Cremonese's struggle is real here at Stadio Giovanni Zini with only 10 points collected from 10 Serie B games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-4-4.

Cremonese shared the glory with Cittadella in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. In the match before that, Cremonese hosted SPAL and drew the game 1-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Cremonese perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

Cremonese are traveling soon after this match as the Serie B match at Venezia awaits in three days.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Cremonese here at Stadio Giovanni Zini in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (9 from 10 games). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 14 goals have been conceded.
