Home Fans Nervous About Relegation, as Cremonese Host Udinese on Sunday

Time will tell, whether USC’s recent run of poor form is about to change. However Massimiliano Alvini will be keen to turn his season around with this game, following the recent defeat to Sampdoria, which followed a disappointing 2-2 draw against Spezia Calcio.

Also, the relegation zone is not where USC want to be at the end of the season, but that is where they are heading, unless they can get out of their losing habit. USC have lost seven of their last 11 fixtures in the Serie A. Now they have 0 matches won, 7 games lost and 4 duels drawn; that’s why they currently sit in twentieth place, with a total of four points having drawn four games and lost seven matches.

When USC host Udinese, they will do so on the back of one dart and four losse on their own ground.

Cremonese will see 7 points so far this season, should they secure a win.

USC are likely to be missing three of their key players when they start Sunday’s game, due to injury and illness.

Udinese’s Serie A season, has so far seen them gain 21 points, going into this game

This match gives Andrea Sottil’s Udinese 90 minutes to get their season back on track. Their last outing resulted in a 1-2 loss to Torino, with a 0-0 draw against Lazio before that. Only a positive result will be good enough.

Also, Udinese keep finding ways to win, having secured six victories in their last nine fixtures is astonishing this season. With 21 points (6W, 2L and 3D), they are established in sixth position in the League having won six matches, drawn three games, and lost two fixtures.

Playing away from home, Udinese have won three meetings, drawn one game, and lost one game.

Udinese will have 24 points if they manage to secure a victory.

Good Attacking Performance

Udinese have a good scoring record this season, with 20 netted so far. This season, their stand-out attacking players have been Beto (5), Gerard Deulofeu (2), and Iyenoma Destiny Udogie (2). Udinese have conceded 12 goals.

It is likely that two key players will miss Sunday’s fixture, which is something of a concern for Andrea Sottil and his Udinese team.
