Key Players

Betting Insights
- It is perhaps significant that both teams are close in the odds with Cremonese at 2.58 and Lecce at 3.25 while the tie is at 3.12; our Cremonese vs Lecce betting tips suggest this could go either way.
- With both teams likely to be cautious, the Under 2.5 goals market is worth supporting at 1.61 and this Cremonese vs Lecce betting tips analysis points to a low-scoring affair.
Prediction
- The two clubs will bring very different approaches to the match with Cremonese favouring a more disciplined and pragmatic 3-5-2 system while Lecce are a more intense and energetic 4-3-3 team.
- Di Francesco’s side will look to press hard for large portions of the game and try to create plenty of turnovers in midfield and in the wide areas with their high-intensity pressing.
- Cremonese will likely look to play defensively and catch Lecce off guard on counterattacks.
- The fact that Lecce will have to press for this game will see them open themselves up at the back, but a tie could also be likely given the contrasting approaches.
