Roma vs Cremonese – Sunday night finale

The Stadio Olimpico stages Roma vs Cremonese, the final match of Sunday’s programme.

Gian Piero Gasperini’s side have reclaimed fourth place at Juventus’ expense and aim to consolidate their position ahead of next week’s direct clash. Cremonese, meanwhile, seek to improve on their draw with Genoa as the battle at the bottom intensifies.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

The official precedents in Rome between the two teams are 10: 7 Giallorossi victories (latest 2-1, Coppa Italia 2023/24), 1 draw (1-1, Serie A 1994/95) and 2 Grigiorossi victories (the latest 1-2, Coppa Italia 2022/23).

Roma always scoring in the 10 matches at the Olimpico against Cremonese: 27 total goals.

Among the illustrious precedents the match of 13 October 1929 is remembered (Roma-Cremonese 9-0): it was the first Roma victory in Serie A single round-robin and represents – still today – the largest Giallorossi victory and the heaviest Cremonese defeat in Serie A.
