Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Sassuolo, 12th position with 23 points and a negative goal difference of -5
Cremonese, 13th position with 23 points and a negative goal difference of -8
🇮🇹 Sassuolo is back to winning form. On Sunday, January 25, 2026, Sassuolo triumphed in the Serie A Week 22 match held at the Mapei Stadium in Sassuolo. This win lifts Sassuolo's spirits, bringing their total to 26 points and creating a gap from Cremonese, who are still at 23 points.
The match was settled early, with a goal from Fadera in the 3rd minute. Overall, Sassuolo dominated the first half. Cremonese attempted to fight back with efforts from Vardy and Moro.
In the second half, the home side stayed organized and compact, effectively neutralizing Cremonese's offensive plays.
⚽️ Sassuolo quickly takes the lead in the 3rd minute with a swift start. Alieu Fadera scores with a left-footed shot that beats Cremonese's goalkeeper Emil Audero, finding the bottom left corner.


There is a perfect equilibrium in the three encounters between Sassuolo and Cremonese in Serie A: each team has one victory and there is one draw, with both sides scoring five goals.
Following the 3-2 win in the first leg on August 29th, Sassuolo has the chance to be the first team against which Cremonese secures victories in both matches during a single Serie A season since Padova in 1995/96.
In the six matches held at the Neroverdi's home ground across Serie A, Serie B, and Serie C (including Lega Pro 2), there have been no draws: each team has won three times; the most recent league match at the MAPEI Stadium was claimed by Cremonese (4-1 on August 31, 2024, in Serie B).
In the last 15 encounters between newly promoted teams in Serie A, the home side has remained unbeaten 13 times (with 7 wins and 6 draws) - the last away victory in these matchups occurred on May 3rd in Parma-Como 0-1.
Sassuolo is currently facing three straight losses without finding the net in the league (against Juventus, Roma, and Napoli); the Neroverdi have only failed to score in four consecutive Serie A matches on two occasions: in September 2014 and between December 2013 and January 2014 (the latter being the sole instance where they lost four straight games without scoring in the top league).
