This weekend’s Serie A action includes some eye-catching clashes at both ends of the table, with these Cremonese vs. Udinese predictions impacting the standings. Udinese are chasing Europe and Cremonese are aiming to avoid a relegation scrap.
Cremonese vs. Udinese odds

2 – Udinese under 2.5 total goals – 3/10

Based on league positions, this clash looks to be a straightforward win for visitors Udinese. But Andrea Sottil’s side have struggled for form in recent weeks.
Udinese are without a win in their last three league games, with just two points picked up, alongside a Coppa Italia exit against Monza last week.
However, despite those issues, they are still strong favourites to collect three points on the road this weekend, with Cremonese the only side yet to win a single game in Serie A action so far this season, from 11 matches played.
With struggles for form an issue for Udinese, and a major problem for Cremonese, this tie is unlikely to be a thriller. So a narrow victory set to be the most probable outcome at the Stadio Giovanni Zini.
Within that three-game run in league action, Udinese have only scored over 1.5 goals inside 90 minutes once, with Cremonese failing to score more than once in a game since the opening weekend of the season.
Cremonese have scored just twice in five home league games in 2022-23 and they have kept just one clean sheet on home soil. Udinese will be confident of edging back on track with a timely win on the road in this one.
Sottil knows his team need to get their form back into a positive pattern if they want to avoid slipping down the table ahead of the World Cup. This game looks to be an ideal opportunity for them to do just that ahead of key games against Lecce, Spezia and Napoli before the mid-season break.
