Napoli’s hopes of defending their Serie A title are nearly extinguished as they prepare to host Cremonese at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. The match kicks off on April 24, 2026. Napoli currently sits in third place, while Cremonese is struggling in 17th, just above the relegation zone.
A win for Napoli would temporarily move them into second place, yet they remain nine points behind league leaders Inter Milan. Cremonese has only picked up one point from their last three league games, intensifying their relegation battle.
Historically, Cremonese’s last victory over Napoli was back in September 1994. This long drought adds pressure on them as they seek to avoid relegation. They have lost seven of their eight away league games since the start of the year.
Napoli has won four consecutive matches against Cremonese, with their last three victories coming by multi-goal margins. Despite being on the verge of surrendering the Scudetto to Inter, Napoli aims to bow out in style.
Cremonese must find a way to overcome a full-blown crisis. It’s virtually impossible to imagine them turning their fortunes around now. The stakes are high for both teams as they approach this critical encounter.
As the match unfolds, fans will watch closely not only for the outcome but for its implications on the Serie A standings. Napoli’s title hopes hang by a thread, while Cremonese fights for survival.
