A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser

Analysis:

A.S Roma poor run of late have virtually handed the title race to Inter Milan so the least they could do here is rise to the occasion and show what they can deliver against Udinese in this match. But what will be sweet here is to avenge last season's defeat as they were beaten by today's opponents 1-0 on the night.

A.S Roma plays as a different team altogether at home. Their poor run has come on their travels mostly as they were beaten by Empoli as well as had draws against the likes of Chievo and Ascoli. To date A.S Roma have the second best home record after Inter Milan and they come into this match winning all of their last eight matches played.

At the Stadio Olimpico Roma's defense is rock solid. In their past 13 games they have played to date they have only allowed their net to be breached six times. A.S Roma will be confident of keeping a clean sheet here considering that the visitors are missing their top scorer in Vincenzo Iaquinta who is out injured still.

Interestingly Luciano Spalletti manager of Roma will line up against the side he used to coach here will field his best side in this fixture with the aim of getting the three points here. A few changes could take places as after the Champions League match the likes of Gilberto Martinez and Alberto Aquilani are not expected to be fit for this match.

Udinese comes into this match without a win in their last five games and haven’t won since the 3-2 at Torino on January 27. Their last match was a 1-0 home defeat against Empoli was just days after they managed a 1-1 draw against Inter Milan. They are also missing the services of defender Marco Motta who sis supended for this match. The likes of Dias Felipe, Damiano Zenoni, Tomas Sivok and Paulo Barreto are all out injured will not help Alberto Malesani here.


Cheers and good luck,
