Cremonese take on the visitors AS Roma in the round 24 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Tuesday, February 28th at Stadio Giovanni Zini (Cremona).
Cremonese continue to go without victories in Serie A and under David Ballardini. Yes, with this mentor it was possible to achieve several sensations at once, which will be remembered for a long time. First, the Tigers managed to take the victory over the current undisputed leader of Italian football – Napoli knocked out on the road, albeit on penalties – but the outsider was in the minority! After that, there was a voyage to Rome, and there again it turned out to shock everyone, having scored 2-1 just with the Jalorossi. That's just with the maximum results in Coppa, and with a new mentor, go with “zero” in the “victory” column in Calcio. It is clear that in the end the newcomer will be relegated, and all that remains at the end of the draw is to fight Sampdoria for the right to at least leave the last place. Just don't assume that the match with the underdog will definitely be an opportunity for any club to score 3 points. It is worth considering the mistake of “Torino”, which only in the end secured the final 2-2.

Roma do not hide the fact that the main goal is to return to the Champions League. This has not been achieved even under Jose Mourinho. Now an experienced Portuguese understands that the 2nd attempt will be, in case of a new failure, the last one. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Special One without much sentimentality said goodbye to the cup in order to focus on the fight in Calcio. Moreover, there, for non-sporting reasons, such a powerful competitor as Juventus fell off. Yes, and others - "Milan", "Lazio", "Atalanta" - are unstable. True, Roma had enough problems. The last away matches brought 1 point in 2 matches: the defeat of Napoli and only 1-1 with the newcomer, Lecce. But, having won at home against Empoli and Verona, they managed to rise to 3rd place. In parallel, the Italians also started in the playoffs of the Europa League, which also allow a pass to the Champions League. So Jose in Rome in the last cycle, he won his debut Conference League. But in Salzburg it all ended 0-1. At home with the Red Bull the hosts had score 2 unanswered goals, and went further.
The Wolves had 4 wins in head-to-heads in a row, including 1-0 in August last year. But February started with 2-1 in the capital in favor of Cremonese in the cup. Jalorossi are so motivated by the standings – if they want to finally return to the Champions League, they must win this fight. And then there's also the desire to take revenge for the Cup misfire. We recommend betting that Jose Mourinho's wards will beat an outsider with a handicap of “-1 goal scored”.
Prediction for the match: As Roma to win with -1.0 handicap.
