Easter Sunday in Serie A opens with Cremonese-Bologna: the home side, after their latest win over Parma, need more victories to move away from the relegation zone. Lecce, in fact, are level on points and will face Atalanta tomorrow.
Bologna come into this after a league defeat to Lazio, having knocked Roma out of the Europa League. Watch out for any mental drop-off: the Rossoblu’s focus could already be on the quarter-final against Aston Villa, which begins on April 9.
🪄 Majestic Bologna, Miranda with two assists
A majestic first half from Italiano’s Bologna, who dominated from the first to the last second of the opening period against a Cremonese side booed by the Zini crowd.

The first goal came after 3 minutes and it was a gem from Joao Mario: the Portuguese, volleying home Miranda’s cross from the left, beat Audero with an unstoppable trajectory that ended up behind the Cremonese goalkeeper.
In the 16th minute Bologna doubled their lead: a flowing team move with Miranda bursting down the left and picking out Rowe in the heart of the box, and with his left foot he tested an imperfect Audero, who this time let the ball slip under his body.
