Contents
Bologna to Win
Bologna had a strong home form up to this point in the season and is eager to improve further against the only team that hasn't won a match. Strangely, Cremonese won more points away than at home, but still, those were all draw games. Bologna is deservedly predicted to win this match.
Over 2.5 Goals
Bologna is a top-five ‘over' team in Serie A averaging almost three goals per match, looking at the overall picture. Cremonese is in the bottom half when it comes to playing in matches with more than two goals scored, but when they are involved in those games, it's usually because they are the ones conceding goals.

Predicted Lineups, Team News, and Preview
Bologna
The home team had a two-game losing streak before winning at Udinese last week which put them in the eleventh spot in the Serie A rankings. That was the sixth win of the season for Bologna who is virtually guaranteed their place in the Top Division for next season because there are so many bad teams at the bottom of the league table. Bologna scored 23 goals this season and is one of the teams with most games over 2.5 goals, which would be good enough if those matches were mostly won by Bologna. They conceded 29 goals which put them among some of the worst teams in the league when it comes to that aspect. Bologna can't make themselves relevant to fight for a place in one of the European competitions for next season, but more importantly, they are far enough from the relegation zone to have a peaceful remainder of the season. Marko Arnautovic is out because of injury, while Lorenzo De Silvestri, Joshua Zirkzee, and Kevin Bonifazi are doubtful to play.
Predicted lineup: Skorupski, Posch, Soumaoro, Lucumi, Lykogiannis, Moro, Schouten, Orsolini, Ferguson, Aebischer, Sansone.
Cremonese
The visiting team is in the middle of one of the worst seasons ever for a Serie A team. It is quite incredible that after 18 rounds of matches, they are still the only ones without a win. Most of their points, seven in total, came while playing four away draws, and the rest were earned at home, again through point sharing. Cremonese has the second-worst attack in the league, a forward line that managed to score only 13 goals while conceding 31. They are nine points away from the first team outside of the relegation zone, but as they are still without that winning feeling, it will take a small miracle to save this season. Ionut Radu and Vlad Chiriches are injured.
Predicted lineup: Carnesecchi, Ferrari, Bianchetti, Quagliata, Valeri, Pickel, Meite, Ghiglione, Tsadjout, Dessers, Okereke.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.

Player to Watch: Riccardo Orsolini
Without the injured Marko Arnautovic, Bologna will look to 25-year-old Riccardo Orsolini for some guidance in their quest to beat Cremonese. Orsolini scored three goals this season with a single assist, but his creativity is what matters for Bologna.
