Lazio vs Cremonese
Lazio will meet Cremonese in the Coppa Italia continuation match in the last 16, where the match will be held at the Stadio Olimpico. This match is also their first meeting in history, the visitors are representatives of the Italian Serie B and of course stepping up to this round is an achievement for Cremonese.
Cremonese journey is not easy, they must get rid of Virtus Francavilla 4-0 then Hellas Verona 1-2 and Empoli 1-0. The achievement of M. Baroni’s foster children deserves appreciation, however Cremonese himself failed to win in the last 2 matches. A 1-1 draw against Juve Stabia, then lost 1-0 against Pordenone. The Italian Serie B standings put Cremonese.
You could say the visitors are one of the worst teams of the second caste competition. While the Lazio camp is still on track to win, the best performance of C. Immobile et al prove they deserve to compete in the race for the top of the Italian Serie A standings. Napoli and Juventus also contributed to the strength of S. Inzaghi’s team in the Italian Super Cup some time ago.
Coppa Italia competition is their place to show strength, the article Lazio is the defending champion last season after defeating Atalanta 0-2 in the final match. Of course the host is one of the favorite teams in this season, while the visitors in the last season they fell in the second round. The quality of the players and the experience of the visitors are still not comparable to Lazio. Most likely C. Immobile et al can win easily.
