Serie A Standing BEFORE the game
Bologna, 11th position with 47 points and a negative goal difference of -1
Cremonese, 19th position with 24 points and a negative goal difference of -30
Bologna are already saved while Cremonese lost the Serie A Week 36 game on Saturday 20 May 2023 at the Giovanni Zini Stadium in Cremona, Italy. Bologna returns to victory after six games and does it in a bombastic way at the Zini. After the 3-0 in the first half, Motta’s men find two more goals with Orsolini and Sansone. For Cremonese, the honor goal is scored by Daniel Ciofani. However, there is a lack of mathematics to condemn Cremonese but, to stay in Serie A, Ballardini’s men need six points in the next two games and three consecutive missteps for Verona and Spezia, something that goes beyond the concept of a sporting miracle. Bologna, on the other hand, with these three points reaches 50 and climbs to ninth place with two lengths of delay from Monza in eighth, waiting for the other matches of the day.
In the next round, Cremonese will play in Rome against Lazio, while Bologna will host Napoli at Dall’Ara.
4 – Bologna have won an away match in Serie A with a four-goal margin for the first time since 22 October 2000 (5-1 against Napoli). Abundance.#CremoneseBologna pic.twitter.com/nOxA7zEGpm

3 – Bologna have scored at least 3 goals in the first half of a Serie A match for the first time since 19 October 2008 against Lazio at home (3), while they have achieved this on the road for the first time since 3 December 1961 (3, against Inter). Monologue.#CremoneseBologna

✅ Stats before the game: After losing their first two matches in Serie A against Bologna (in 1929/30), Cremonese remained unbeaten in the next three matches in the top division between 1989/90 and the first leg (W1, D2). Davide Ballardini’s first match at the helm of Cremonese in Serie A dates back to the first leg match against Bologna on 23 January (1-1); since his arrival, the Grigiorossi have earned 17 points in 17 games and would be out of the relegation zone. 46% of Cremonese’s points in this Serie A season have come from April (11/24), a record percentage. During the period, the Grigiorossi earned more points (11 in eight matches) than Bologna (10) in the league. After the success against Spezia in the last home match, Cremonese could obtain two wins in a row at Zini in Serie A for the first time since the period between November-December 1995 (against Padova and Bari in that case, with Luigi Simoni as coach). Bologna went on a run of six consecutive matches without a win (D4 L2) in the league for the first time since the April-May 2021 period (seven in that case). The rossoblù could also draw three games in a row in Serie A for the first time since January 2021 (five on that occasion).
