Serie A
A handful of games on the final day of the Serie A season mean something, and this is one of the biggest. Frosinone and Udinese both head into the final day knowing that they could be relegated. A draw would be enough for Frosinone but perhaps not for Udinese, depending on other results, both teams are desperate to stay in the top flight, and both should remember that they begin outside of the relegation zone, so are not in the worst position before kick off.
Frosinone Form GuideThere are five teams who could end up in the final relegation spot, and of those five, Frosinone are in the fourth best position, so it will take quite a wild turn of events for them to be relegated. Of course, their added bonus is this game, with Udinese below them, as long as they get a draw, they are guaranteed to be safe, regardless of what happens elsewhere.
That allows Frosinone to focus on their own job, more than others, and not need a win. And that's what they come here on the back of, as they took a massive step towards safety with a 1-0 victory away from home against Monza on Sunday. That's now two wins and seven points from their last four games, with a 3-0 success over Salernitana and a draw with Empoli as part of that run.
Udinese Form GuideUdinese are in more trouble than Frosinone and have a bit more pressure on them. They come here with 34 points, just one ahead of Empoli on 33, who are in the relegation zone, so this is going to come down to the final day of the season.
But give Udinese credit, because they are fighting and they come here on the back of a four game unbeaten run. It's been one win, a 2-0 success away at Lecce, and three draws, and it has kept them in it. They drew 1-1 with Empoli yesterday, a game that would have seen them drop into the bottom three if they had lost it.
Match PredictionThis is going to be incredibly tight, and in the end, I don't think either team will win the game, I am going for the draw. That would mean Frosinone are safe, while Udinese are relying on other results to keep them up, in what promises to be a great final weekend of action in Italy.
