Cremonese vs Bari Prediction and Betting Tips | August 10th 2024

Cremonese and Bari get their 2024-25 Coppa Italia campaign underway when they lock horns at the Giovanni Zini Stadium on Saturday. Giovanni Stroppa’s men head into the weekend on a four-game winning streak and will be looking to keep the juggernaut rolling.

Cremonese’s dreams of securing promotion to Serie A came to a heart-breaking end in May’s playoff final when they fell to a 1-0 aggregate defeat against Venezia.

Stroppa’s side had enjoyed an impressive Serie B campaign as they picked up 19 wins and 10 draws from their 38 matches to collect 67 points and finish fourth in the standings.

Cremonese head into the weekend off the back of an impressive pre-season campaign, where they won each of their four warm-up games while scoring 11 goals and conceding three.

Bari, on the other hand, endured a forgettable 2023-24 campaign as they picked up just 41 points from their 38 Serie B matches to finish 17th in the standings.

However, Moreno Longo’s men salvaged their season at the last minute as they secured a 3-1 aggregate victory over Ternana in the relegation playoff in May.

Like the hosts, Bari enjoyed a fine run of results in pre-season, where they picked up two wins and one draw in their three games while scoring a staggering 20 goals and conceding five in that time.
