Cremonese must desire to end their current Serie A win-less run on Saturday. Since they are considered to be the favourites of the match, they hope that the long-awaited win will finally come.

Cremonese scored 12 goals, conceded 17 and fought their way to one clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

Spezia are currently not the most scoring team in the Serie A, as they only found the back of the net nine times in ten matches. This is an average of just 0.9 goals a game in which they conceded 15 times, an average of 1.5 per game. They managed one clean sheets in of these.

It was an enormously entertaining 2-2 match, when these two sides last played each other. A similar feast of goals would go down well on Saturday.

Cremonese vs Spezia Prediction

Cremonese Form

In their previous three matches, Cremonese first drew 0-0 against Fiorentina, then 1-1 against Verona before also sharing the points in a 1-1 draw against AC Milan. Cremonese managed to win two of their past six home matches in the Serie A. In the remaining four, they drew one and lost three, as they scored five and conceded nine goals.

Spezia Form

A draw is all that prevents Spezia from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They claimed a point in a 1-1 draw against Sampdoria before getting trounced against Monza by a 0-2 score. Last time out, more disappointment followed as Atalanta ran out 3-2 winners. In their last six Serie A away matches, Spezia failed to win even once. In stead, they've drawn four and lost two, scoring eight while also conceding ten times.

Going forward, Cremonese and Spezia are both in decent form, while at the same time being generous in defence. We are confident, both teams will find the back of the net on Saturday.

Cremonese won nine points from their last nine encounters with teams from the bottom six, like their upcoming opponent. They won two, scored eight and let in 13 goals. Spezia won three of their previous eight outings against teams from the bottom six and claimed 14 points. They scored ten and conceded seven goals. Cremonese are looking at a record of three wins, 12 draws and 18 defeats in the Serie A this season. Spezia are looking at five wins, 12 draws and 16 defeats in the Serie A.
