On January 30, Dacia Arena (Cremona) will host the match of the 20th round of the Serie A, in which Udinese will compete with Verona. The battle will start at 20:45 CET.

Udinese

The club seems to have decided to live up to its nickname as much as possible in the current season. Having got another mentor, Andrea Sottil, in the summer (without having neither a name nor a reputation as a coach), “the Little Zebras” surprised everyone with a powerful start, when the team won 6 times in a row from the end of August to the beginning of October and, as a result, jumped into the group of leaders. But after that there was a 10-match streak without victories in the Calcio, which happened in combination with a defeat in the Coppa Italia in the match against Monza. Having started the winter with a home draw in the struggle with Empoli, then “the White and Blacks” lost not only to Juventus, but also to Bologna. And only in the battle with Sampdoria, which was in the relegation zone, it managed to “snatch” the victory – a strong defender, Ehizibue Kingsley, scored in the 89th minute of the game. That was the first goal for the young Nigerian player in the Serie A.

Verona

The team is going to repeat the focus that was typical for the previous season. Then, having given Ivan Zurich to leave to Torino, the team initially did not get the “suitable” successor, but saved the season after the replacement of him to Tudor. At first, everything was the same: the Croatian mentor left the club in the summer; his successor failed again and, as a result, was fired. But even under the rule of Bocchetti, “the Mastiffs”, to be frank, seemed to be spineless, eventually reaching the series of defeats to 10 ones in a row. Nevertheless, after a pause, Salvatore managed to transform his wards. The only lost match was the away game against Inter with a 1-0 score. Miranchuk’s goal brought Torino a draw, but with the newcomers of the Calcio, Cremonese and Lecce, the team managed to take the maximum – both battles were won with a 2-0 score. However, the higher mentioned victories were taken at the home arena. The most important thing is that nowadays “the Hellas”, having a terrible result of 12 points after 19 matches, is “hanging” in the relegation zone, in the 18th position.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

Taking into account previous 4 head-to-head matches, Verona has got only 1 victory. This season, it has already lost to Udinese with a home 1-2 score in October.

Predictions

Bookmakers believe that “the Little Zebras” will win again in the following match. Nevertheless, it goes without saying that Verona has revived in the winter, and, thus, it is worth betting on its victory with “a +1 goal handicap” (odd: 1.6).
