Italian Serie A
2011-10-02 - Udinese vs Bologna
A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Match Preview :
Udinese have a great chance to increase their lead at the top as they welcome struggling Bologna in this match who have yet to register a win since the Serie A started.
Udinese are currently joint leaders with Juventus, but as the Juventus face Milan on Sunday night, Udinese can get the win and hope Milan can do them a favour by beating or holding Juventus.
The only thing to state here is that Udinese could be suffering after their trip to Cektic in the Europa League in midweek.
Francesco Guidolin was critisized for resting his key players in the clash with Celtic. But he defended his actions when his side managed a 1-1 draw with a second string side in order to keep his players fresh for the visit of Bologna.
Bologna have had a fairly disastrous start to the campaign and Coach Pierpaolo Bisoli position is walking on a thin line. Bologna only managed one point from their four games played which was earned after Juventus went down to 10 players.
Last weekend they were beaten by Inter Milan managed by Claudio Ranieri and their striker Marco Di Vaio has yet to score for them this season.
Team News :
For Udinese, Antonio Floro Flores and Paulo Vitor Barreto remain injury doubts, which is why Guidolin opted to leave Antonio Di Natale at home to avoid any risks. Gabriel Torje is also well-rested, as he is ineligible for the Europa League, but Andrea Coda, Damiano Ferronetti and Giovanni Pasquale are still out injured.
For Bologna, Goalkeeper Jean-Francois Gillet misses out with a dislocated shoulder. He is replaced by Federico Agliardi, while Niccolò Cherubin, Saphir Taider, Jose Angel Crespo, Alvaro Cruz and possibly Henry Gimenez are out of action. Archimede Morleo sits out his one-match ban, but Andrea Raggi is expected to feayture in defence.
Possible lineups
Udinese : Handanovic; Benatia, Danilo, Domizzi; Basta, Isla, Pinzi, Asamoah, Armero; Torje; Di Natale
Bologna : Agliardi; Garics, Portanova, Antonsson, Raggi; Pulzetti, Mudingayi, Perez, Kone; Diamanti; Di Vaio
Prediction :
Take Udinese to win this match.
Cheers and good luck,
