The AI-powered pre-game prediction correctly forecasted a Cremonese win, aligning with their higher team rating (0.527 vs 0.404) and win probability (54.6% vs 21.1%).
Cremonese's recent form has been generally positive with three wins and two draws in their last five games, while Mantova have experienced a more mixed bag of results: two wins, two draws, and one loss. Cremonese's attacking prowess was evident in this match, as they mirrored their earlier 4-0 win over Catanzaro, while Mantova's defensive vulnerabilities were exposed. Cremonese's next game is away against Sampdoria, a team with a weaker recent form, as Sampdoria has recorded one win, two losses, and two draws in their last five games. Mantova, meanwhile, will face Cesena at home, which could prove a challenging match, considering Cesena's recent defensive solidity.
The high foul count from Cremonese (26) suggests a physical approach, which might need to be tempered in future matches to avoid suspensions. This game follows a pattern seen in Cremonese's recent games, where they have demonstrated an ability to score multiple goals. Mantova's early goal suggests they can be dangerous on the attack, but their defensive lapses ultimately cost them the game. Looking back at the previous head-to-head game played on 2024-11-09, Mantova won 1-0, indicating that Cremonese were successful in reversing the result in this match.
