Cremonese will continue their fight for survival in the top flight when they host Lazio at the Stadio Giovanni Zini on Monday in Serie A. The home team currently sits 18th with 28 points, desperately needing a win to stay in contention.
Lazio, on the other hand, is focused on the upcoming Coppa Italia Final against Inter Milan. They are positioned 10th with 48 points and looking to build momentum ahead of that crucial match.
Cremonese’s struggles continued with a heavy 4-0 defeat to Napoli, leaving them just four points from safety. They have failed to win in their last four Serie A games and have not secured a victory at home in their last nine attempts.
Key statistics:
- Cremonese’s last home victory was in December.
- Lazio has only lost twice in their last 10 away games across all competitions.
- The earlier meeting this season ended in a 0–0 draw.
- Cremonese has taken four points from their last three home matches.
- Lazio has kept just one clean sheet in their last five away games.
Both teams are expected to line up in a 4-3-3 formation. Cremonese faces a must-win scenario as they take on a defensively solid Lazio side. Yet, they hope to leverage home advantage to turn their fortunes around.
Expect a competitive game with moments for both sides, but Lazio may have the edge when it matters most. Ivan Provedel and Danilo Cataldi will be key players for Lazio as they aim to maintain defensive solidity.
