Udinese vs Cremonese Predictions
- Both teams have scored in six of the last nine games to feature Cremonese, who have won their last two.
- Udinese, meanwhile, have conceded eight goals in their last three Serie A matches, failing to win.
- The Zebrette have seen 12 successive home games contain goals at both ends – a run stretching back to September’s 4-0 thrashing of Roma.
Can improving Cremonese pull off great escape?
Cremonese looked dead and buried to most Serie A observers just a few short weeks ago, but back-to-back victories over Sampdoria and Empoli – coupled with Spezia’s dire run of form – have dragged them to within seven points of safety with eight games to play. Davide Ballardini has certainly improved the side since his January appointment, and they will travel to Udinese on Sunday with every confidence they can trouble the Zebrette.
Cremonese have now won three of their last seven league games (D1 L3), having failed to win any of their first 23 following promotion to Serie A. While Ballardini’s men have only managed one clean sheet since Serie A returned following the World Cup break, they have certainly improved in attack, netting more goals in his 12 games at the helm (14) than in 18 before he took over (13). Both teams have scored in six of their last nine games, with only in-form Fiorentina shutting them out during that run, the Viola doing so twice en route to victories in both Serie A and the Coppa Italia semi-finals.
Both teams scoring has become something of staple at the Dacia Arena, and more of the same looks likely on Sunday. Indeed, the Zebrette have seen 12 successive home games contain goals at both ends, a run which stretches back to September’s resounding 4-0 win over Roma. Andrea Sottil’s men have failed to win any of their last three, shipping a combined eight goals against Bologna, Monza and Roma, but they have hit an impressive 24 goals in 14 home league games this season.
Entertainment on offer for Udine locals
Udinese’s 14 home league games have contained a total of 41 goals this season, and with Sottil’s men proving inconsistent and Cremonese hitting their stride in attack, we expect to see the net bulge at both ends here.
Meanwhile, Cremonese have lost just two of their last eight away games (W2 D4), and we think them capable of picking up another vital result on the road. An entertaining 2-2 draw could represent correct score value, with the visitors hitting eight goals across their last four on their travels.
