Udinese vs Bologna Prediction
Bologna looked sharp in attack and assured at the back in the statement win against Lazio, outplaying Maurizio Sarri's team in all departments. Sunday's game against Udinese will not be as challenging as most, but they will have to be wary of the hosts' offensive prowess, which was on full display against Sampdoria.
Fans can expect a goal-fest in the game between Udinese and Bologna, and the latter should win this fixture by a narrow margin.
Prediction: Udinese 2-3 Bologna
