Salernitana vs Udinese Prediction & Betting Tips (28 August)

Promoted to the elite in 2021, the Salernitana has been fighting not to go down for 2 seasons. Last year, Boulaye Dia's teammates only finished 15th in Serie A. Nevertheless, they held on fairly quietly, as evidenced by the 11-point lead in the red zone. La Salernitana hope to continue their progress this season.

Last weekend, the men of Paulo Sousa showed great dispositions. On the move in the lair of Roma, they managed to bring back a good point 2-2.

The Salernitana coach remains without incumbent defenders Daniliuc (ex-Nice) and Pirola, injured. Also absent on the first day, the important Bronn (ex-Metz) and Bohinen are, for their part, uncertain. Last weekend, veteran Candreva stood out against Roma with a brace. Still at the club, the Senegalese international Dia (16 goals and 6 assists in SA) only came into play but could start this time. This summer, young Polish midfielder Legowski (20) arrived at the club, as did young Nigerian striker Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi (Celje) and substitute goalkeeper Costil (Lille). Offensive Martegani (San Lorenzo) and Jovane (Sporting) have arrived on loan. At the club last season, defender William Troost-Ekong (Watford) and forwards Vilhena (Espanyol) and Piatek (Hertha Berlin) were not retained and Bonazzoli was loaned to Hellas Verona. Becoming a substitute on the arrival of Ochoa last year, Sepe signed for Lazio.

Absent for many months now, the Spanish striker Deulofeu is still not on his feet. We also find in the infirmary the potentially titular defenders Ehizibue, Masina and Ebosse, the doorman replacing Padelli and the very promising midfielder Pafundi (17 years old). The club's top scorer last season, Beto could once again form the attacking duo with former Marseillais Thauvin who has made a good preparation. Real owner, the Brazilian Rodrigo Becao is committed to Fenerbahce. Added to this is the departure of midfielders Roberto Pereyra and Tolgay Arslan (Melbourne), piston Udogie (Tottenham), defender Benkovic (Trabzonspor) and striker Nesterovski (2 goals last season). In the direction of arrivals, the club has recruited midfielders Camara (Huddersfield), Zarraga (Bilbao) and Quina (Watford), defenders Kabasele (Watford), Joao Ferreira (Watford) and Zemura (Bournemouth) as well as forwards Brenner ( Cincinnati), Lucca (Pisa) and Aké (Juventus).
