Saturday, at 17:00, Udinese will receive Parma’s visit in a match for the 20th round in Serie A. The match will take place at the Dacia Arena in Udinese.
With an average of less than one point in the match in the first part of the championship, Udinese did not feel at all well and recorded few notable results in Serie A on the tour. With only four wins in 19 stages and taking the 15th place, the “friuli bianconeri” is just five points away from the first relegable place, the distance which constitutes, in itself, a real alarm signal for Udinese. Fortunately or not, the opponent of Davide Nicola’s band is Parma, a newly-promoted one that does not tend to have any problems with relegation emotions, judging by the results and evolutions of the tour. In fact, despite the oscillating evolutions, Parma has achieved important results on foreign ground in the first part of the season, defeating even the favorites Torino (2-1), Fiorentina (1-0) or Inter (1-0).
Probable teams:
Udinese (3-5-2): Musso-Opok, Troost-Ekong, Nuytinck-Larsen, Fofana, Behrami, De Paul, D’Alessandro- Okaka, Lasagna
Parma (4-3-3): Sepe- Iacoponi, B. Alves, Bastoni, Gagliolo-Kucka, Stulac, Barilla-Gervinho, Inglese, Siligardi
Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a balanced deployment of hostilities. Udinese is the favorite from the point of view of the pitch, but we can only see the small value and game differences between the two combatants. Thus, we have chosen a bet that, we believe, will reflect the reality of the field.
PREDICTION: Udinese to win @ 2.08
