Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Following an unlucky defeat to league leaders Inter, Udinese will look to give fans some cheer when they face AS Roma in the Serie A round 32. Zebrette are only two points clear of the relegation zone, meaning that Sunday’s clash is of big importance for the home side. Both Enzo Ebosse and Gerard Deulofeu are out of contention with injuries, while Vivaldo is a major doubt. Talented forward Lorenzo Lucca is back from suspension.
The Romans, on the other hand, are brimming with confidence following a hard-fought 1-0 win over Lazio in the Derby della Capitale. Daniele De Rossi’s troops are eyeing a spot in the Champions League and given Udinese’s three-game winless run in the Italian top flight, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visiting side. The good news for the visiting team is that defender Evan Ndicka is back from suspension.
