Will the promoted team also make life difficult for the Biancocelesti?

Promoted team US Cremonese continues to shake up Serie A. On the very first matchday, the Grigiorossi beat AC Milan 2-1 away – the club that has not lost a single league game since in 2025/26. There have been setbacks, such as the 4-1 defeat to runners-up Inter and the 1-0 defeat to relegation-threatened Pisa Sporting Club.

Nevertheless, the Lombards should be very satisfied with eleventh place, having recently beaten Coppa Italia champions Bologna 3-1 away. This means that Lazio Rome’s home win against Cremonese is definitely not a foregone conclusion.

Admittedly, the Aquile (meaning “the Eagles”) cannot be denied a certain home strength. The capital city team picked up 14 out of a possible 21 points at the Stadio Olimpico and conceded just five goals in the Eternal City. Nevertheless, the Biancocelesti rarely put on a goal-scoring extravaganza. They have not scored more than one goal in any of their last four competitive games. This makes it an interesting bet that the Laziali will score no more than one goal against US Cremonese, especially since the newly promoted team from Lombardy has earned an impressive 11 points in eight away games (only five teams in the league have scored better away from home) because they have conceded only nine goals on the road.

Betting on the Aquile scoring a maximum of one goal at home does not rule out the possibility of another surprise from the promoted team. However, despite all the praise, it should also be noted that “La Cremo” has suffered some painful losses. Midfield dynamo Martín Payero joins the injured list and will have to serve a yellow card suspension in the Eternal City. The Grigiorossi may therefore play a little more defensively at the Stadio Olimpico, which is why it makes sense to bet on a low-scoring Serie A game overall.

Lazio Rome – Cremonese Head-to-head record

Head to head: 16 – 7 – 8

A total of 31 matches have been played between the two teams so far, with Lazio Rome winning 16, or almost exactly half of all games. The Biancocelesti have also won the last three competitive matches against US Cremonese and recorded a 3-2 home win against the Grigiorossi in the 2022/23 Serie A season.

Lazio Rome – Cremonese Tip

On paper, the prediction for Lazio Rome against Cremonese must of course lean towards the capital city team, who are strong at home, but who are now welcoming a promoted team to the Eternal City that has already proved to be a thorn in the side of other Serie A giants.

“La Cremo” has already beaten strong home teams such as AC Milan (2-1) and Bologna FC (3-1) and finds itself in an excellent eleventh place in the table with 20 points. It could be correspondingly difficult for the Aquile, especially since the Biancocelesti are missing a striker up front. No Lazio player has scored more than three goals so far this season.

In our opinion, the tip that the Laziali will score a maximum of one home goal against a very compact defensive opponent at the Stadio Olimpico is therefore very likely. Thankfully, we don’t have to answer the question of whether this will be enough for another minimalist 1-0 victory, especially since the three-way system is virtually predestined to burn your fingers in this match.
