Udinese vs Sassuolo Prediction & Betting tips
Udinese and Sassuolo are respectively thirteen and fourteenth in the Serie A and also in the twelve mutual encounters they had since Sassuolo joined there was little difference. Udinese won three times, Sassuolo won four times and the match ended five times in a draw. In none of these twelve games did we see a team with two or more goals win the difference and not once did more than three goals fall.
Udinese:
Udinese has been working on its best series of the season since the beginning of December. First, Bologna won no less than 4-0 in the Coppa Italia, a big boost for the Udine team that scores so hard this season. Then there was a draw against the croaking Napoli and as expected lost to Juventus. After this, Le Zebrette won two league games in a row for the first time this season. In the home game against Cagliari, Udinese was leading 1-0 for a long time thanks to a goal by Rodrigo De Paul, but it seemed to lose two points when the Sardinians tied the score in the 84th minute. Luca Gotti’s team needed only a minute to recover, Seko Fofana scored the winning in the 85th minute.
Also in the first game of this season, the winning goal fell just in time. The away match in Lecce headed for a bloodless 0-0 until Rodrigo De Paul made the winning in the 88th minute. The midfielder scored no less than nine times last year, but was not yet at the start of this season, he scored only once in the first thirteen games. In the meantime the Argentinian is again important because of two goals in two consecutive games.
Sassuolo:
Where Udinese won the last two games just before time, the opposite is the case with Sassuolo. In the last game before the winter break it took the lead thanks to the 19-year-old Hamed Traore, who also scored against Brescia a week earlier. Napoli made a well-deserved equalizer in the sixtieth minute and the teams seemed to share the points until midfielder Pedro Obiang scored his own goal in the 94th minute. In the first game of this year, Obiang revanched himself by shooting the 1-1 in the 33rd visit to Genoa, but it would not be enough for a point. Goran Pandev made the 2-1 on behalf of Genoa just before time, while Sassuolo saw a goal rejected by the VAR shortly before.
The Neroverdi have to do without the goalie Berardi this weekend as he received a red card to insult the referee after the game. Fixed value Locatelli is also missing because he took his fifth yellow card of the season against Genoa.
