Cesena take on the visitors Cremonese at “Stadio Dino Manuzzi” in the gameweek 42 of the Italian Serie B. The match will be played in Cesena on Friday, May 18th.
Being under the threat of relegation to the Serie C, Cesena have managed to issue five-clash undefeated streak which covered two triumphs and three draws, including 2:1 victory over Parma at their own turf and 0:0 draw against Palermo on the road. As a result, at the moment “Cavallucci Marini” occupy the 14th position in the Serie B standings with 47 points gathered, being two points away from the dangerous zone and the club must gain only one point in the forthcoming battle in order to stay in the second division for the next season.

Meanwhile, having looked awesome in the first lap, Cremonese were quitted by many key footballers during the winter break. And instead of interfering into the promotion rivalry, the Serie B debutant was forced to hold the relegation battle. However, “Grigiorossi” began slowly to revive by the end of the second lap: in the latest encounters the side recorded two draws against Novara and Empoli with the same 1:1 scoreline plus in the most recent game Cremonese simply destroyed Venezia 5:1, having taken a direct pass to the elite division from Filippo Inzaghi‘s team. And now “Grigiorossi” sit on the 13th place in the Serie B table with 48 points collected, having already secured themselves in the Serie B for the next season and may consider the upcoming clash as an easy trip on the eve of the summer vacations.
A draw will suit both participants of the Friday encounter. Besides, both of them belong to the leaders on number of draws deserved in this season: Cesena recorded 17 draws while Cremonese have reached 21 such outcomes. Taking into account the mentioned above as well as the absence of the personal tough rivalry between the sides, I believe that 0:0 or 1:1 draws are the most reasonable outcomes of the upcoming fight.
Prediction for the match: Draw and under 2.5 scored goals.
