Cremonese, last year's second-placed team from Serie B, arrives at Olimpico. Roma, with Jose Mourinho, is once again making its way to the top of Italian football. The charismatic Portuguese won the Conference League last season, the first trophy for Roma since the Italian Cup in 2008, so the appetites of the fans have increased because they feel that Roma could once again become a factor in Serie A, and a good team has been assembled that could also attack the Europa League. Perhaps the biggest boost is the arrival of Paolo Dybala from Juventus completely free of charge, and like the Argentinian, former and current Serbian national team members Nemanja Matic and goalkeeper Mile Svilar, as well as the Georginio Wijnaldum from PSG, arrived in Roma without spending a euro on transfers. Roma is money spent only on bringing Celik from Lille to whom she paid 7 million euros for that transfer. Jose Mourinho's men opened the season well with a narrow win in Salerno against Salernitana, the only scorer in that match was Brian Cristante in the 33rd minute of the match. Roma created a lot of chances, Nicolo Zaniolo duly missed, and if Roma creates so many chances today, I think they can beat the guests at the Olimpico with a bigger score. Cremonese did not celebrate last week, in the first round they suffered a tragic defeat in Florence against Fiorentina. Cremonese had a point in their pocket, it was 2-2, they were waiting for the referee's final whistle and the celebration of Cremonese's big point in the first round of Serie A, but in the 95th minute, after a not-so-dangerous cross from Mandragora, Cremonese goalkeeper Ionut Radu who, instead of "boxing" and chasing the ball away from his goal, decides to catch it, after which it falls together with the ball into the goal and thus brings three points to the home team. I believe Roma will win today, although a -1.5 handicap is a bit risky, Cremonese showed against Fiorentina that they are a good squad, I will take my chances and play Roma to win with at least 2 goals difference.

My prediction;

Outcome: Roma to win -1.5
