Udinese vs Cremonese Prediction and Betting Tips | April 23rd 2023
Udinese play host to Cremonese at the Stadio Friuli in round 31 of the Italian Serie A on Sunday.
Davide Ballardini’s side set out looking to make it three wins on the bounce and continue their push from the danger zone.
Udinese continue to struggle for results in Serie A as they were thrashed 3-0 by AS Roma at the Stadio Olimpico last Sunday.
Andrea Sottil’s side have now gone three consecutive games without a win, picking up just one point from a possible nine since claiming successive wins over Empoli and AC Milan in March.
With 39 points from 30 games, Udinese are currently 12th in the league standings, level on points with 11th-placed Torino.
Elsewhere, Cremonese picked up another huge result in their battle at the bottom end of the table as they claimed a 1-0 victory over Empoli last Friday.
Prior to that, Ballardini’s side saw off Sampdoria 3-2 in a pulsating contest at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris to end their five-game winless run across all competitions.
With 19 points from 30 matches, Cremonese are currently 19th in the Serie A table, three points above rock-bottom Sampdoria and seven points away from safety.
