Baschirotto vs Davis in Serie A contest
Cremonese sit 10th in Serie A, having secured 9 points from their opening 6 matches and showing a great deal of resilience in the top tier since their promotion. Davide Nicola has done a good job with the club since taking over in July 2025, establishing a defensive discipline and a 3-5-2 system with a compact back three, wide wingbacks and a counterattack mentality.
Federico Baschirotto has been Cremonese’s biggest attacking threat in Serie A so far, netting 2 goals in 6 appearances. However, he will need to keep an eye on Keinan Davis, the in-form Udinese Calcio striker who has hit 2 goals in 6 Serie A outings and will be a constant aerial threat in the box.
For a deeper insight, this Cremonese vs Udinese Calcio preview outlines the importance of both strikers in this matchup and the tactical adjustments that could tip the balance.
Cremonese have drawn their last two games prior to their 4-1 defeat at Inter on the road. Udinese have also shown mixed form this year, winning 2, drawing 1 and losing 2 of their last 5 Serie A fixtures. Their recent games include a 3-1 loss to Sassuolo and a 1-1 draw at home to Cagliari.
Udinese a shade of experience better?
Udinese’s form has been more consistent, with 12th place in the Serie A table and 8 points from 6 games, just 1 point behind Cremonese. Kosta Runjaic has impressed with Udinese since becoming manager in June 2024, building a pragmatic team that plays direct, aerial football, with a quick pace and a more direct end-product than Cremonese’s more counterattacking style.
When searching for a reliable Cremonese vs Udinese Calcio prediction, the two teams' identical formations stand out, which could set up a midfield battle and a battle of the wingbacks on Monday.

With Udinese’s away average of 1.33 goals conceded per game and Cremonese’s average of 1.50 scored and 1.00 conceded at home this Serie A season, our Cremonese vs Udinese Calcio betting tips suggest that the under 2.5 goals market at 1.72 looks a bit rich, so I’ll take that. This should be a close, tactical match, with Udinese a little more experienced but Cremonese a tough nut to crack on their own turf, so a home win or draw seems likely.
For the final Cremonese vs Udinese Calcio prediction, note that Udinese have won the last 2 meetings between these two sides, including a 3-1 win away in a friendly in 2023.
