Napoli
- The hosts have a strong record at home, winning 11 of their 16 games here in Serie A and conceding just 15 goals in the process.
- Napoli will be looking to flex their muscles in this matchup against relegation-threatened Cremonese as Antonio Conte’s men look to cement their place in Serie A’s top three.
- They sit third in the table with 66 points from 33 games and are overwhelming favorites to win at 1.38.
Cremonese
- Cremonese have lost ten of their 17 away trips in Serie A, conceding 24 goals in the process.
- The visitors are 17th in the Serie A standings, picking up just 28 points from their opening 33 games.
- Marco Giampaolo took charge in March 2026 and his appointment has brought a new lease of life to a Cremonese team who have switched to a wider, slightly riskier 4-4-1-1 system.
- However, they still play direct soccer, preferring to launch the ball into the box from the wings and hope for the best.
Head-to-Head

Key Players
- Napoli have won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five in Serie A, with Rasmus Hoejlund leading the charge in the final third with 10 league goals in 28 appearances.
- However, it’s Matteo Politano who has been particularly influential for the home side of late, scoring two of their last five goals and providing a spark for a Napoli side who can be a little slow to get going at times.
- Federico Bonazzoli, who leads Cremonese’s scoring charts with just seven goals, won’t be able to provide enough firepower to outscore them.
