Past encounters
Of the 12 previous meetings between Napoli and Cremonese in Cremona, the home side have won three times (the last one a 2-0 victory in Serie A 1994/95), there have been six draws (most recently a 1-1 in Serie B 1998/99) and the Azzurri have triumphed on three occasions (the most recent a 4-1 win in Serie A 2022/23).
Cremonese haven't beaten Napoli since 11 September 1994, when Matjaz Florjancic's double secured 2-0 victory.
Form, coaches and players
Napoli have lost seven of their last nine away matches, only managing to win at Lecce (1-0 on 28 October) and Roma (1-0 on 30 November) in that time. Antonio Conte's side have not scored on the road in 234 minutes since David Neres struck in the 36th minute against the Giallorossi at the end of November.
Napoli are one of six Serie A teams in the current campaign that have scored the fewest goals through subs – just one, the same as Fiorentina, Parma, Genoa, Udinese and Torino.
Davide Nicola and Antonio Conte have faced off five times as coaches, with Conte victorious on all five occasions. The most recent of these was Napoli's 2-0 success over Cagliari on 23 May 2025, the game that sealed our fourth Scudetto triumph.
Jari Vandeputte has made the most appearances for Cremonese in 2025, turning out in 38 of the team's 39 competitive matches, while their top scorer is Manuel De Luca, with ten goals.
Federico Baschirotto (a Lecce player until June, at Cremonese since August) is one of just two players to have featured on all 36 Serie A Matchdays in 2025 (the other being Cagliari's Michel Adopo), without missing a single minute: he has played all 3240 minutes plus added time.
Matteo Politano is the Napoli player who has played the most in 2025, appearing in 43 of the 44 competitive matches in the current calendar year.
The team's top scorer over the last 12 months is Scott McTominay, with 14 goals.
