Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Stadio Friuli will host Sunday’s football game between Udinese and Sassuolo, the two teams who sit in the danger zone. The Zebrette aim to recover from a heavy 4-0 loss to Inter and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the Neroverdi. Experienced forward Florian Thauvin is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, whereas all Vivaldo, Keinan Davis, Jaka Bijol, Enzo Ebosse, Brenner, and Gerard Deulofeu remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Sassuolo, meanwhile, conceded two late goals in a 2-1 loss to Cagliari on Monday evening, with the team remaining in 15th place in the standings. The Neroverdi are not regarded as good travellers and given Ruan’s suspension, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Sunday’s encounter. The likes of Mattia Viti, Pedro Mba Obiang, and Agustin Alvarez miss out with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Domenico Berardi):
Once one of the most promising young players in Serie A, Domenico Berardi is the Italian footballer that plays for Sassuolo and the Italy national team. Born in Cairati, Calabria, the forward begun his professional career back in 2012, when he helped the Neroverdi win Serie B and play in Serie A next season and was named as the best player of the competition, only 18 years of age.
He made his first appearance for the Italy U19 national team in the same season. His excellent performances draw the attention of Juventus and the Old Lady confirmed in the beginning of the Season 2013/14 that Domenico Berardi joined the club on a co-ownership deal.
The player never played for Juventus because he remained in Sassuolo and he recently signed a new contract with the Neroverdi. The 24-year-old right winger, who can also play as a left winger and a second striker, made his first appearance in the senior national team in June 2018.
Highlighted Team (Udinese):
Udinese Calcio was founded in 1986 as a part of the Societa Udinesedi Ginnastica. Until the season 1929 the club from Udine was playing in the regional divisions of Italy. In the year 1929 the club was allowed to participate in the Serie B (second highest Italian football division). In 1950 Udinese managed to reach the Serie A.
