Match Preview
Udinese will be looking to continue their impressive home form when they host Cagliari on Saturday. The Zebrette have won four of their five Serie A matches at the Dacia Arena this season, and they will be confident of adding another three points to their tally against a Cagliari side who have struggled on the road.
Cagliari have lost four of their five Serie A away matches this season, and they have only scored twice in those five games. The Rossoblu will need to improve their attacking output if they want to get anything from this match.
The key battle in this match will be between Udinese's attack and Cagliari's defense. Udinese have scored 14 goals in their five home matches this season, while Cagliari have conceded 12 goals in their five away matches.
If Udinese can get their attacking players firing, they should be able to beat Cagliari. However, if Cagliari can keep Udinese's attackers quiet, they could have a chance of getting a result.
