The league table in Serie B tells a story about these teams so far, with Crotone leading Cremonese by 11 points. Match preview to follow:
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Cremonese have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Crotone form and stats

In their previous game, the manager G. Stroppa led his Crotone to a defeat in the Serie B match away at Empoli. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Ezio Scida. Ahead of that match, Crotone lost 1-2 at home to Spezia.

Cremonese form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Cremonese so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 1-4-5 (win-draw-lose).
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Serie B home defeat versus Pisa with 3-4 on the scoreboard. Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Virtus Entella.
A huge disappointment for Cremonese in their last match (vs Pisa). Leading 2-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 3-4 defeat. A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Cremonese, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun? Cremonese were so close to getting something from the game against Pisa, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal three minutes into overtime.
Cremonese has another fixture away, a Serie B game, against Spezia in just three days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
The attacking power of Cremonese when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 10 league matches away. As opposed to that, Cremonese have seen the ball go into their own net 14 times on the road.
