Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Udinese will be aiming to recover from a 1-0 loss to AC Milan when they face Cagliari in the Serie A round 9. The Zebrette failed to make life difficult for the ten-man Rossoneri, but they are still seen as slim favourites to beat Cagliari in front of home fans. All Arthur Alta, Florian Thauvin, Thomas Kristensen, and Alexis Sanchez are sidelined with injuries for the home side.
The Sicilians, on the other hand, proved their worth in a 3-2 win over Torino, but seeing that Udinese are tough to beat at Stadio Friuli, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Both Adam Obert and Leonardo Pavoletti are sidelined with injuries, while Cagliari midfielder Jakub Jankto will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. In their last encounter at the venue the two sides played out a 1-1 draw.
