We have four Serie A games on Saturday, and the first one to kick off sees Udinese as the home team, and they welcome Torino. The home side are on the up, just when they need to, in a bid to stay in this division, while Torino are a little lost at the moment, in the middle of the table with little to play for.
Udinese Form GuideUdinese have still won just four games all season. Genoa, one place above them have won eight, five of the seven teams below them have won six. But 15 draws have kept them ticking along, it's not always the prettiest, but they begin the weekend three points clear of the relegation zone.
One loss from their last five has seen them rise up the standings, two wins and two draws mean eight points, a big moment in the season for them. Last weekend they went away from home to Lazio and won 2-1, a massive result and it came on the back of a point from a 1-1 tie with Salernitana.
Torino Form GuideTorino have had a decent season, without massively overachieving. But they've now found themselves in a time when they have nothing to play for, they're going to finish mid table somewhere, and can't really improve on that. It's allowed them to be experimental, but at the same time, you do need to factor that into your betting.
They come here without a win from their last four games, losing the first two and then drawing the most recent two. Last weekend, they drew at Napoli, and before that, they drew at home to Fiorentina. Both are good results when you look at them, a sign this team can compete when needed.
Match PredictionBut here, I think Udinese can take something. I am backing them on the double chance market, covering them to win the game or it to end in a draw. They've got everything to play for right now, have found a new level of form which has been good to see, and I think they get something from this game.
