Serie A Wk28: Lecce vs. Cremonese – confirmed line-ups and live updates
Lecce look to Nikola Stulic in a crucial Serie A match against Jamie Vardy’s Cremonese.
It kicks off at 12:30 CET (11:30 GMT) at the Stadio Via del Mare.
It promises to be a dramatic match in the race for survival, with the two sides level on 24 points, alongside Fiorentina.
Technically, Lecce are in the relegation zone, but only by goal difference.
The Giallorossi, however, have earned six points in the last five matches, while Cremonese only grabbed one in the same period.
The Grigiorossi seemed safe just a few weeks ago, but they have been winless since the reverse fixture on December 7 and have scored only one goal in the last eight games.
Medon Berisha, Francesco Camarda, Olaf Gorter and Kialonda Gaspar are unavailable for Lecce, while Cremonese have travelled south without the injured Michele Collocolo, Federico Baschirotto, Faris Moumbagna and the suspended Filippo Terracciano.
Lecce and Cremonese‘s rival Fiorentina play later today at 15:00 CET, hosting Parma at the Stadio Franchi.
