They can hardly contain their excitement in Pisa: the Serie A goal is becoming more and more concrete with each passing day, and the fact that the match against Cremonese is sold out shows that the fans are ready to unleash their joy at reaching the top flight, which the Tuscans have been eagerly awaiting since 1991, when the unforgettable Romeo Anconetani was still at the helm of the club.
The last round could have been decisive: Pippo Inzaghi’s team beat Reggiana 2-0 and moved seven points clear of third-placed Spezia. It is a reassuring lead with 15 points still up for grabs, but it is too early to claim victory, as the Ligurians could close the gap to four points with a win over bottom-placed Cosenza and put pressure back on Pisa, who face the fourth-placed team in the league. In fact, the Nerazzurri have made quite a few missteps in recent months: since March, for example, Caracciolo and his teammates have recorded three wins and three losses. Cremonese have been more consistent: the Grigiorossi have suffered only one defeat in their last nine games, consolidating their fourth place, which would give them clear advantages in the postseason, such as home field advantage. The Lombards have earned 53 points so far, coming off a very balanced head-to-head match with Juve Stabia (1-1), the team currently closest to them in the standings, just three points behind.

Cremonese is perhaps the last real obstacle for Pisa, now well on its way to promotion. However, a Nerazzurri victory is not a foregone conclusion: we expect a very even match with at least one goal for each side.
