Cremonese vs Lazio Prediction 4 May 2026
📢 What can we expect from the clash between Cremonese and Lazio at the "Stadio Giovanni Zini" in the 35th round of Serie A? The "Eagles" are undoubtedly superior in terms of quality, yet their season has been far from flawless, with frequent slip-ups. Meanwhile, the "Gray and Reds" are battling in the relegation zone, making every point crucial for them, as a win could significantly boost their survival hopes. Neither side will find this an easy outing.
Head-to-Head
📊 The head-to-head history between Cremonese and Lazio in recent years is sparse, with the teams having played just four matches. Among these encounters, one ended in a draw, while the Eagles triumphed three times. The sole draw during this period occurred in the first round of the current season. On that occasion, Lazio unexpectedly dropped points at home, playing to a 0-0 stalemate and delivering a performance far from their best.
Head-to-head statistics Cremonese - Lazio

Cremonese Team Overview
⚪ In the second half of the season, Cremonese have undergone significant changes compared to their performance in the first half, and not for the better. The team have been losing too frequently and struggling to earn points, which has seen them plummet down the table and ultimately land in the relegation zone. Following Lecce's victory over Pisa (2-1) last Friday, the gap to the safety of 17th place has widened to four points. Now, the "Gray and Reds" must secure points against Lazio, or their situation will become even more precarious.
🔴 In the last round, Cremonese were unable to put up a fight against Napoli (0-4). The intrigue in the match was extinguished by halftime, with Napoli leading 3-0. Overall, the "Gray and Reds" had a dismal first half, failing to register a single shot in 45 minutes. After the break, they improved and made more frequent forays into the opposition's half, but overturning such a deficit was out of reach.
Match Results: Cremonese

Lazio Rome Team Overview
🔵 Lazio's season has been underwhelming, largely because the club couldn't bolster their squad last summer due to a transfer ban. In Serie A, the Eagles are sitting in eighth place with 48 points. Breaking into the top seven seems a daunting task given their significant gap, so it would be more logical for the Romans to focus their efforts on the Coppa Italia. They've reached the final and have a genuine shot at clinching the trophy.
⚪ This season, Lazio are struggling with consistency. They can deliver a strong performance against high-caliber opponents, only to drop points in matches where they're expected to win. For instance, in mid-April, the Eagles secured a clean-sheet victory over Napoli (2-0) away from home, then knocked Atalanta out of the Coppa Italia on the road (1-1, 2-1 on penalties). However, last weekend they couldn't manage a win at home against Udinese (3-3). In fact, they were on the verge of losing but were saved by Maldini's goal in the 90+5th minute.

Latest news
Cremonese
🚫 The hosts face minor squad issues: Faris Mumbanya is doubtful due to physical discomfort, while Jamie Vardy is definitely out with a muscle injury.
📌 Vardy's absence is undoubtedly a significant blow given his vast experience. A player of his caliber could certainly bolster Cremonese's attack.
Lazio Rome
🚫 The visitors face significant squad issues. Matteo Cancellieri will miss the match due to suspension. Alessio Furlanetto (ligament injury), Ivan Provedel (shoulder injury), and Mario Gila (thigh injury) are also sidelined. Danilo Cataldi's participation is doubtful due to physical discomfort.
📌 These absences are indeed substantial: Provedel is the first-choice goalkeeper, Cancellieri adds value in attack, and Gila has been a key figure in Lazio's defense throughout the season.
⚽ Goal Prediction
One of the main reasons for Cremonese's significant downturn is their weak attacking performance. The team has struggled to score, failing to net more than once in 14 of their last 15 Serie A matches. Given these stats, betting on Cremonese under 1.5 goals seems like a reasonable prediction. This wager is available at odds of 1.47*.
🚩 Corner Prediction
For those interested in set-piece betting, consider the option of over 8.5 corners at 1.70*. In Lazio's recent matches, this mark has been consistently surpassed, with at least nine corners in each of their last five games. There's little reason to expect an exception in the upcoming fixture.
*Odds are approximate and may vary across different bookmakers.
Editorial Prediction
According to the bookmakers, Lazio are slight favorites in the upcoming clash, but it's not that straightforward. The Eagles have little left to play for in the league and are likely focused on the Coppa Italia final. Cremonese, on the other hand, desperately need points as they are in the relegation zone. However, even with strong motivation, success is not assured for the hosts. The Gray and Reds are in poor form and struggle to create chances, which will be particularly challenging against Lazio's solid defense, known for their pragmatic approach this season. Thus, betting on under 2.5 goals seems the most reasonable option, especially since this bet has been successful in 15 of Lazio's last 16 away matches. We anticipate a 1-1 draw on the scoreboard.
