This marks their second consecutive victory, bringing Nicola's team to a total of 20 points and placing them comfortably in the standings. Meanwhile, Lecce remains at 13 points and risks slipping back into the danger zone if other teams in the relegation fight secure positive outcomes.

The first half was evenly matched, but the second half favored Cremonese, who broke the stalemate with a penalty in the 53rd minute, awarded by Mucera after a review on the field and successfully converted by Bonazzoli. They maintained control of the game with ease and extended their lead to 2-0 with Sanabria's first goal of the season, which he scored by heading in a cross from Zerbin in the 78th minute. Lecce struggled to respond and left Cremona empty-handed.

In the upcoming round, Cremonese will travel to Torino, while Lecce will face Pisa in a crucial match for the relegation zone.

The six Serie A encounters between Cremonese and Lecce have been evenly matched: each team has secured two victories and there have been two draws, resulting in a total score of 9-9. Cremonese (17) and Lecce (13) will clash in the first half of the Serie A season, both having achieved at least 12 points in the standings for the first time in their history.

Stats BEFORE the game

Lecce has accumulated 13 points from 13 Serie A matches this season (3 wins, 4 draws, 6 losses) and could match their best record after 14 games in their last eight top-flight seasons: 16 points in 2023/24, with Roberto D'Aversa as their coach.

The highest number of goals Cremonese has ever scored in a Serie A match was at home against a team from Puglia: a 7-1 victory over Bari on December 10, 1995. However, following their home loss to Lecce on February 4, 2023 (0-2), the Lombardy team risks facing two consecutive home defeats against teams from this region for the first time in the tournament's history.

With 17 points from their first 13 matches this season (4 wins, 5 draws, 4 losses), Cremonese is experiencing its second-best Serie A season ever—when considering the three points awarded for a win—having only performed better in the 1993/94 season after the same number of matches played (18 points). Additionally, the Grigiorossi could end up with fewer than five defeats in their first 14 top-flight matches of the season for the first time ever.

Following their 3-1 win against Bologna in the last round, Cremonese has the chance to secure two consecutive victories for the second time this season in Serie A, having previously accomplished this in the first two matchdays against Milan and Sassuolo. In their eight previous seasons in the league, the Grigiorossi have only recorded two winning streaks in a single season once (in March 1995 and May 1995).

After their 2-1 loss to Torino in the last round of the season, Lecce is aiming to win two Serie A matches in a row for the first time since last season.
