Serie B 2024-2025: Cremonese-Modena, the likely lineups

Serie B 2024-2025: Cremonese-Modena, the probable formations

Cremonese and Modenai face each other at the Zini stadium, in the match valid for the postponement of the 23rd day of Serie B, set for 5:15 pm. The Grigiorossi, coming off three wins in their last four matches, aim to strengthen their position in the playoff zone standings. On the other side, the gialloblù are looking for their first win of 2025, having accumulated only one point so far with a defeat in Palermo and a home draw against Frosinone.

For Cremonese, led by Stroppa, a 3-5-2 formation is expected: Fulignati in goal; Antov, Ravanelli and Ceccherini in defense; Barbieri, Pickel, Majer, Vandeputte and Zanimacchia will act in the midfield; while the attack will be entrusted to the Bonazzoli-Vazquez pair.

Paolo Mandelli, Modena coach, is expected to opt for a 3-4-2-1 with Dellavalle, Zaro and Caldara in defense. Magnino è slightly favored over Di Pardo for the role on the right flank, while Cotali will act on the other side. Santoro and Gerli will complete the midfield. In attack, the Caso-Palumbo duo will support center forward Pedro Mendes.
