A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Analysis:Even though catching Inter Milan seems quite remote now, A.C Milan will still want to hold on to second place and will need the points from their trip against Udinese in this match. It will not be easy as Udinese are the best team on form going into this match.
Udinese comes into this match having won their last five games in a row and that has put them on course for a place in Europe. They are just shy of three points from reaching their target now.
In their last match they beat Lazio 3-1 and Pasquale Marino hopes they can keep the same squad for next season as well.
A.C Milan failed to closed the gap to Inter after they could only drew against Juventus at the San Siro. Milan who managed 16 points from their last 6 games, having slim hopes of catching Inter Milan with just three games left. Their best hope is to secure second spot and keep Juventus away from them.
Carlo Ancelotti is already resigned to the fact that they will not be able to catch Inter Milan and his position in the side is not up to him to decide.
With regards to the team news, Dias Felipe and Giovanni Pasquale should recover in time for this match but the likes of Totò Di Natale, Andrea Coda and Aleksander Lukovic are out. Mauricio Isla will start in defence while Asamoah will start in midfield.
As for Milan, David Beckham and Giuseppe Favalli will play no part as they are suspended. The Rossoneri are also without Marco Borriello, Alessandro Nesta, Christian Abbiati and Kakha Kaladze who are all out injured. Ronaldinho will start from the bench as well as Alexandre Pato.
Milan have always gotten the better of Udinese in the past. This season it was 5-1 in favour of Milan, while two seasons ago it was 4-1. In 2005-06 and 2006-07, Milan won at the Friuli by four and three goals respectively.
