Spezia vs Cremonese Predictions

• Spezia won 12 of their 19 home games in Serie B.
• Cremonese have lost their last two away games.
• Both teams have scored in four of Spezia’s last six games.

Play-off in the balance after goalless first leg

The Serie B play-off final remains finely poised after a 0-0 first leg on Thursday, but Spezia should fancy their chances with home advantage in the return fixture.

Cremonese dominated the first meeting but couldn’t find a way through and now Spezia have to be the favourites to secure a spot in Serie A.

The Aquilotti won 12 of their 19 home league games and have four wins in their last five games at their Stadio Alberto Picco home. Their one loss during that run came against Cremonese towards the end of the Serie B season, but Spezia had little to play for in that game with a play-off spot already secured.

Cremonese lost at Juve Stabia earlier in the play-offs and have lost their last two trips, while they have just three wins in their last nine away going back further.

A home win stands out for our main bet and a 2-1 win for Spezia looks a reasonable correct score option. The first leg may have ended goalless, but one goal should open this tie up and Sunday’s return game should provide a bit more entertainment.

Spezia have scored at least twice in four of their last five games and exactly twice in three of those, while Cremonese have scored in seven of their last eight away games and all of their road losses this season have been by one-goal margins.
