Preview: AS Roma vs Cremonese Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Serie A 2025-26

The previous outing between them ended in favour of the Giallorossi.

AS Roma will now have a face-off against Cremonese for their matchweek 26 fixture of the 2025-26 Serie A. Stadio Olimpico is going to witness this interesting confrontation.

With 15 wins in 25 games, AS Roma are in fourth place on the league table at the moment. They were held to a 2-2 draw by Napoli in their previous fixture.

They have not put in their top efforts in their last few games. However, the Giallorossi will be at home, and this is going to be an advantageous situation for them.

Players to Watch

Donyell Malen (AS Roma)

Donyell Malen has put up strong performances for AS Roma in the last two matches. He has scored back-to-back braces and will be yet again ready to help his side in the final third. The 27-year-old Dutchman will be eager to keep his form going.

Malen will surely cause problems for the opponent’s defence.

Jamie Vardy (Cremonese)

The 39-year-old Englishman will be looking to step up his game and help his side stand a chance against Giallorossi. Even though he is not in top form at the moment, Jamie Vardy will still play a crucial role in the attacking front for Cremonese. In 21 Serie A appearances this season, he has six goal involvements and will be keen to add more to his tally.
