Cremonese - Benevento

Cremonese face a significant test of their depth as they look to build on their recent victory over Mantova. The hosts welcome Benevento to Stadio Giovanni Zini for this matchday 10 encounter on 31 October 2026, though they must navigate a challenging injury and suspension list. With key figures like Fabio Gerli, Matteo Bianchetti, and Tommaso Barbieri all sidelined, the expected XI featuring Federico Bonazzoli and Salvatore Elia will need to find immediate cohesion to overcome the visitors.

Benevento arrive in solid form, having recently secured a convincing 3-0 win against S.S. Arezzo before a draw with Catanzaro. While Christian Kouan is unavailable due to suspension, the visitors have shown consistency throughout their recent league campaign. Historically, meetings between these two sides have been tightly contested, including a pair of 1-1 draws during the 2021-22 season. Both teams will be eager to assert their authority in this latest Serie B clash.
