Round 18 of the Serie A season will offer up another relegation six-pointer as last-place Cremonese host 15th-place Monza. Meanwhile, Inter could go second and get back into the title race with a win at San Siro against Hellas Verona.
Cremonese are the only Serie A team not to win a game in 2022-23. The team has lost 10 of its 17 games, with the remaining seven matches ending as draws. Monza are unbeaten in five of their last six games against Cremonese with four of those games ending as wins.
Monza are on a three-game unbeaten streak in Serie A. The team took eight points from the last 18 points on offer, scoring nine goals and conceding six.
Cremonese took three points from the last six games with the trio of points coming from draws. They are on a three-game losing streak ahead of Monza’s arrival.
Cremonese have not been able to score a goal in their 4 most recent matches in Serie A.
Inter go into round 18 in fourth place and 10 points off first-place Napoli. A win over struggling Hellas Verona could send them second depending on AC Milan and Juventus’ results.
Inter are unbeaten in six straight games against Hellas, with five of those matches ending as wins. The Nerazzurri are on a four-game unbeaten streak in Serie A.
Hellas Verona are coming off a confidence-boosting win at the weekend against Cremonese. The Gialloblu are unbeaten in back-to-back games and just six points off relegation safety. The San Siro to play Inter is not where Hellas want to go this weekend, however.
Torino posted a record of 1W-1D-2L against Spezia in their last four head-to-head meetings. The home team won or drew all four of those matches between the Serie A sides.
Spezia are 17th in the standings but six points separate them from the relegation zone. The Eagles are unbeaten in four straight games but three of those matches ended as draws. Spezia have conceded 28 times this season, the third-most goals in the league.
Torino are 10th in the standings and battling for a place in the top six. However, Il Toro are eight points off the European qualification places. Five of Torino’s last six games in Serie A ended without a defeat. Il Toro are unbeaten in three straight home matches ahead of Spezia’s arrival.
Five consecutive games in Serie A between Udinese and Bologna ended as draws. All five of those matches finished with both teams scoring goals.
After a strong start to the Serie A campaign in which Udinese flirted with the top of the table, they have rapidly sunk down the standings. Udinese failed to win their last nine Serie A matches. The Zebrette are eight in the table thanks to draws.
Bologna are 12th in the table but are on a two-game losing streak in Serie A. The Rossoblu have struggled on the road this season. Four of their last five away games ended as losses.
