Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Udinese play host to Cremonese at their Dacia Arena in the Serie A round 31. The Zebrette aim to recover from a heavy 3-0 loss to Roma, and they will not have a better chance than this to get back on course. Both Ebosse and Deulofeu are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Cremonese, meanwhile, have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both Sampdoria and Empoli in the last two league matches. The visitors are eager to keep their survival hopes alive, but given their poor away record, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from Sunday's encounter. As for the away team, both Ciofani and Chiriches remain in the recovery room. Earlier this season Udinese recorded a 3-1 win over Cremonese.
