Turn four into one! The descent of Chievo Verona and Frosinone Calcio has been fixed for weeks, on Sunday evening, the third relegated is now determined. With the Fiorentina, Udinese Calcio, promoted FC Empoli and the oldest professional club in Italy, the CFC Genoa, there are still four teams in acute relegation need. For tension is guaranteed accordingly and all four teams are simultaneously on Sunday at 19:30 clock in use. All four teams have the league still in their own hands. The eleven from Friuli, Udinese Calcio, would fix with a draw the league whereabouts. However, the Tudor-Elf guest in a foreign country and has been anything but abroad strong. In Sardinia there is a meeting between Cagliari and Udinese!
The Sardinians have definitely been saved since last weekend and have been able to lay the foundation for the relegation in front of their home crowd. 30 of the 41 season counters collected the team of head coach Roland Maran at home. The last home game of the year, they can also deny completely free. Despite the good home record and the poor performance of the guests on foreign territory (only two wins) Cagliari is against Udinese according to current rates only slightly in the role of favorites.

Cagliari:
With 30 points in front of his home crowd, the Maran-Elf is back in tenth place in the home table. On the Italian mainland, however, it did not run in this season as desired. Like the final opponent from Friuli, Udinese, Cagliari Calcio has been able to win only two games on foreign soil this season. There was no away win last weekend, but the 1-1 draw against Genoa FC was hailed as a success. Center-forward Leonardo Pavoletti brought the Sardinians with his 15th goal of the season in the lead. This held until the 89th minute, before Genoa still managed to equalize. The draw kept the four-point lead over the Ligurians and Cagliari Calcio will be represented for the fourth time in Serie A in the Italian Football League in the 2019/20 season.
The 1: 1 draw also stopped the defeat series (three defeats in a row). However, Cagliari also had a difficult program to play with games against Roma, SSC Napoli and Coppa Italia winner Lazio Rome. In these games, the Maran Elf acted quite satisfactory. Despite only 35 goals this season (on average less than one goal per game), Cagliari has scored in six out of the last seven games. The defensive is also not necessarily solid and therefore appears on Sunday in the game between Cagliari and Udinese a tip to represent at least one goal of both teams an interesting option.
Personnel Maran will have to do without captain Luca Ceppitelli and midfielder Paolo Farago, but otherwise the full squad is available.
Udinese:
Already a year ago the Croatian Igor Tudor jumped in Friuli and played the firefighter in the finish of the season 2017/18. With seven points in four games, the league could be fixed. Nevertheless, the engagement ended after just under a month. Julio Velazquez has signed on as an aspiring young coach, but under him (13 games, 0.69 points per game) and successor Davide Nicola (15 games, 1.07 points per game), things did not go according to plan. In mid-March, Igor Tudor was again committed as a firefighter and equipped with a contract until the end of the season. As in the previous year, the “Friuli” managed the turnaround under the Croat. Of the nine games in his second era, Udinese won their four, drew three times and lost only to AS Roma and Atalanta Bergamo.
Thanks to these good results, the chances of relegation are very good. How it goes with Tudor afterwards, is still in the stars. The club management wants to keep the Croatian definitely, but first it is important to fix the common goal. Only in the case of a defeat and a simultaneous victory of Genoa in Florence (of 47 games Genoa has so far won only three games in Artemio Franchi), the Tudor Elf would start to shake again. With a point win in Sardinia the league would be secured.
Thanks to the current form, Udinese can travel to Sardinia with a wide chest, despite an inferior outlook (2-5-11). Also the big injury concerns (Behrami, Fofana, Barak) and the suspension of Marvin Zeegelaar do not change the fact that between Cagliari and Udinese a prognosis on the double chance X / 2 seems promising.
