Prediction: 2-0
Spezia
Cremonese will be full of confidence after their thrilling 4-1 win over Sassuolo before the international break. Despite defender Luka Lochoshvili being sidelined due to a suspension by the FA, the home side remains strong, especially at Stadio Giovanni Zini, where they’ve shown they are a real force to be reckoned with. Cremonese will look to continue their winning form as they are eyeing another three points.
Spezia, meanwhile, have struggled on the road, and their away-day woes could continue in this tough fixture. Forward Salvatore Elia is sidelined due to injury, adding to their concerns. While Spezia may pose a threat in patches, their inconsistency away from home could leave them vulnerable to a determined Cremonese side. With Cremonese’s brilliant display against the Neroverdi and Spezia's difficulties on their travels, a home win seems the most likely outcome. In their last meeting in the Italian second tier Cremonese defeated Spezia 1-0.
