SPAL meet visiting opponents Udinese at Stadio Paolo Mazza in the Serie A clash on Thursday, and we have the latest injury news and predicted line ups to hand.
SPAL will be wanting a better result here following the 3-0 Serie A defeat last time out to Sampdoria. It’s our opinion that SPAL could make use of the 4-4-2 formation this time and select Karlo Letica, Jacopo Sala, Kevin Bonifazi, Francesco Vicari, Arkadiusz Reca, Alessandro Murgia, Simone Missiroli, Bryan Dabo, Gabriel Strefezza, Sergio Floccari and Alberto Cerri.
Mohamed Fares (Thigh Problems), Federico Di Francesco (Thigh Problems), Mattia Valoti (Adductor problems), Ervin Zukanovic (Ankle problems) and Etrit Berisha (Hand fracture) won’t be playing for SPAL gaffer Luigi Di Biagio. Thiago Cionek cannot play in this game through suspension.
How SPAL could look vs Udinese
In their previous game, Udinese drew 2-2 in the Serie A tie with Genoa. From our viewpoint, Bianconeri Friuliani appear most likely to elect for a 3-5-2 system, giving starts to Juan Musso, William Troost-Ekong, Bram Nuytinck, Samir Santos, Jens Larsen, Seko Fofana, Rodrigo De Paul, Mato Jajalo, Thomas Battistella, Kevin Lasagna and Ilija Nestorovski.
Udinese boss Luca Gotti has to currently contend with reduced team options. Rolando Mandragora (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) and Sebastian Prödl (Knee Injury) will miss out on this game.
