In that match, Reggiana had 40% possession and 8 shots on goal with 1 of them on target. On the other side, Parma got 18 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target.

It has been seldom in recent times that Reggiana have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. The reality is that Reggiana have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 9 goals during that time.

• have not registered a win against Cremonese in their previous 5 league matches.

Cremonese

WWDLWD

In their last fixture, Cremonese drew 1-1 in the Serie B match with Sampdoria.

In that match, Cremonese managed 42% possession and 19 shots on goal with 11 on target. The scorer for Cremonese was Charles Pickel (27'). For their opponents, Sampdoria had 9 attempts at goal with 4 on target. Estanis (60') was the scorer for Sampdoria.

A succession of resolute performances from the Cremonese defensive unit has seen their ‘goals against’ tally standing at 3 from their past 6 clashes combined. Over that same time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves is 7. Despite that, we will just have to wait and see whether that trend might continue on in this next match.

Heading into this fixture, Cremonese have not lost to Reggiana in away games against them for the last 2 league matches.

🗞️ Team News: Reggiana

Filippo Melegoni (Thigh Problems), Domen Crnigoj (Unknown Injury) and Luca Vido (Knee Injury) aren’t available for Reggiana boss Alessandro Nesta.

In all likelihood, I Granata should line up in a 4-3-1-2 formation for this game, beginning the first half with Francesco Bardi, Lorenzo Libutti, Paolo Rozzio, Filippo Romagna, Mario Sampirisi, Antonio Vergara, Elvis Kabashi, Alessandro Bianco, Manolo Portanova, Stefano Pettinari and Eric Lanini.

📋 Team News: Cremonese

Owing to an otherwise available group of players, there is just a single fitness worry for the Cremonese boss Davide Ballardini to be concerned with. Luca Valzania (Cruciate Ligament Injury) won’t be playing here.

We reckon that Grigiorossi seem likely to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system, choosing Mouhamadou Sarr, Matteo Bianchetti, Giacomo Quagliata, Luka Lochoshvili, Leonardo Sernicola, Michele Collocolo, C. Monginda Pickel, Massimo Coda, Andrea Bertolacci, Cristian Buonaiuto and Franco Vazquez.

✨ Prediction

Our feeling is that Reggiana will need to push hard to breach the defence of this Cremonese side who will likely win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.

We’re therefore anticipating a highly competitive game with a 0-1 winning score for Cremonese at the end of this game.

Looking forward to watching this one unfold.
