Parma vs. Cremonese: Serie A Match Preview

Cremonese appointed Marco Giampaolo as their new coach, hoping to change their fortune after a series of defeats.

Parma, despite being in a relatively safer position, suffered a heavy defeat in their last match.

The match is crucial for Cremonese, as a win could significantly shorten the distance from the safety zone, especially with other teams around them facing tough opponents.

Due to safety concerns, fans from Cremona were banned from attending the match, diminishing the derby atmosphere.

Cremonese is currently in 18th place with 24 points, needing to close the gap with Lecce (27 points) and Fiorentina (28 points).

Parma sits in 12th position with 34 points, trying to recover from a 4-1 loss against Torino.

Giampaolo might shift Cremonese to a 4-3-1-2 formation, potentially featuring Vandeputte as a trequartista behind Bonazzoli and Djuric.

Parma will miss Delprato due to suspension and Almqvist and Cremaschi due to injuries. Bernabé is also doubtful.
