Napoli vs Cremonese Predictions

• Napoli have kept two clean sheets in their last four matches
• Cremonese have failed to score in their last two games
• Scott McTominay has scored in three of his last eight games for Napoli

Conte seeks a reaction to Lazio loss

Napoli’s push for a top‑four finish should trump Cremonese’s desperate fight for survival when the two sides meet in a tense Serie A tussle at the Maradona on Friday.

Antonio Conte’s men will try to bounce back from their 2-0 home humbling by Lazio last weekend, a defeat that ended any lingering hopes of defending the Scudetto. The Partonopei have not lost back‑to‑back league games since December 2023, and Conte will demand a reaction to a risible display.

Cremonese, meanwhile, are sinking fast with only one win in their last 19 matches. That sorry sequence has dragged them deep into the relegation battle, and their away record against top‑seven sides — four points from six games — offers little encouragement.

Cremonese not creating much

Marco Giampaolo’s side have struggled for goals, structure and belief, and a trip to Naples is hardly the ideal setting for a revival.

Cremonese have failed to score in their last two games, registering a combined expected goals of less than one across those contests.

Napoli should control the tempo, carry the greater threat and ultimately take the points. A 2-0 victory could be on the cards and Scott McTominay is the standout candidate to score after bagging three times in his last eight appearances.
