AS Roma take on the visitors Cremonese in the round 2 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, August 22nd at Stadio Olimpico (Rome).
Roma started new era with Jose Mourinho a year ago. The arrival of the "Special one" was announced ahead of time, it was all furnished with pomp and was accompanied by huge expectations. As a result, progress within Calcio was not great. And, most importantly, did not bring a return to the Champions League. But finally, they managed to win a trophy. It was the Jalorossi who became the first winners of the Conference League. However, the mentor must understand that the current chance will be his last. Perhaps, even in general, this is an opportunity to save the reputation of a top coach. On the other hand, the magic of the name still works. Basically, the club from Rome strengthened for free in the summer. Stars such as Dybala and Matic came as free agents. We also managed to get Wijnaldum on loan. All of them, obviously, came precisely in order to work with Seu José. The club started the season pragmatically, beating Salernitana 1-0.

Cremonese can be considered as a new name in Serie A. Behind them are almost a dozen seasons at this level. But they were in the last century. The new century had to start with bankruptcy and rise from the 4th division of the country. And only last season, the “grey-steel” were able to take 2nd place in Serie B, and with it - a pass to the Italian football elite. There, of course, it will be extremely difficult for them. The rookie is considered the main contender for relegation. But to fix this, the Tigers bosses found under 20 million for newcomers. A third was spent on the acquisition of striker Dessers from Genk. In total, 2 dozen players signed, including quite well-known ones: Okereke, Radu, Kirikesh, Vazquez, Askashibara. Georgian center back Lokhoshvili arrived from Wolfsberg for 1.6 million. Already in the 1st round, they were a little short of taking a point. But in the 95th minute, Mandragora pulled out a 3-2 home victory for Fiorentina.
In total, they played 10 matches, and Roma has an unconditional advantage: 7 wins with a single defeat. But after 1996, the parties did not meet. The bookmakers are confident that the Jalorossi will win. But they are pragmatic, and Cremonese liked the mood shown in Florence. We recommend using a bet on visitors with a handicap of "+2 goals".
Prediction for the match: Cremonese to win with +2.0 handicap.
