Italian Serie A
2010-12-19 - Lazio vs Udinese
A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Analysis:Lazio will aim to bounce back after suffering a defeat against Juventus in their last clash. Lazio dropped from second to fourth in the standings after they conceded a late goal to Juventus.
They have had one week to reflect and prepare for this clash and now will be eager to get the win. Edy Raja is badly hit by injuries but he will not let it affect his team's performance.
Last week, Luis Cavanda deputised at left-back after Stephan Radu underwent an operation on his meniscus and he was responsibly for Juventus's winner. This week it seemed Javier Garrido might be back in time to start at full back, but it has been discovered his recovery has been delayed and Cavanda will start once again at left back.
In attack, Tommaso Rocchi will definitely start ahead of the Zarate-Hernanes-Mauri trio. Rocchi will replace Sergio Floccari who injured his ankle in a charity basketball game.
Giuseppe Biava is down with an ankle problem, but could return in time for this match. However if he fails to recover for Lazio, then Modibo Diakhite will step in. Cristian Brocchi is suspended and in his place Cristian Ledesma will stand alongside Francelino Matuzalem in midfield.
Meanwhile, Udinese comes into this match after winning thieir tie against Fiorentine last time out. They wanted to prove that can win on their travels as well as at home. They do have a poor away form with five defeats on their travels to date.
They do not have players injured or players out on suspension to worry about. However, Dusan Basta and Damiano Ferronetti are still out till well into the next half of the season.
Antonio Di Natale trained alone this week as he needed the time after playing so many games.
Take Lazio to win this match.
Cheers and good luck,
