This is the final round of the season, and Cremonese know that even a victory might not be enough to guarantee their Serie A safety, as Lecce go into the weekend one point clear of the relegation zone.
To make matters worse, they are up against a Como side who are still chasing Champions League qualification.
Coach Marco Giampaolo couldn’t believe his bad luck when preparation for this last match was ruined by a stomach virus that swept through the squad.
It ruled out Warren Bondo, Martin Payero, Faris Moumbagna and Mikayil Faye.
On top of that, Antonio Sanabria has been added to the list of injury absentees along with Federico Baschirotto.
