Pisa preview: Improving Pisa

Following their promotion to the top-flight of Italian football last season, Pisa remain winless but they are beginning to show signs of improvement under the management of former Genoa boss and 2006 FIFA World Cup winner Alberto Gilardino.

The Tuscans come into this one on the back of backing up their 2-2 draw at San Siro against AC Milan by sharing a couple of other draws against in-form opposition; at home to Lazio and then away to Torino.

Pisa vs Cremonese prediction

Alberto Gilardino and his Pisa side have been able to show some real signs of improvement. They remain firmly in the battle against the drop and they are winless. They now face a Cremonese side that will be expected to play their usual way on the counter-attack but it may be tough against a stubborn Pisa side. A victory appears to be around the corner for the hosts and they have to be slight favourites for this one.
