Serie A 2025-2026: Cremonese-Udinese, the likely lineups
In Monday’s packed soccer schedule (here, continuously updated, the probable formations of numerous matches to be played throughout Europe on the day) there is also room for Cremonese-Udinese, a challenge valid for the seventh day of Serie A.
Doubt for Nicola, who is still undecided on who to play on the right between Nicola and Mussolini, with the former slightly ahead of his partner. Pezzella will act on the opposite flank, with Bondo, Grassi and Vandeputte in the middle of the field. Audero should return between the posts, in front of him Ceccherini, Baschirotto and Bianchetti. Vázquez and Bonazzoli the favorites for the attack.
Okoye will be back between the posts for Udinese after serving his disqualification, in front along with Zaniolo should play Davis although Bayo is pawing for a starting shirt. Goglichidze, Kabasele and Solet will make up the defensive line, Zanoli, Piotrowski, Karlström, Atta and Kamara in midfield with Zaniolo and Davis up front.
Cremonese are coming off 3 draws and 1 defeat in their last 4: in the last round they were overwhelmed by Inter (4-1 for Chivu’s side), before that they faced Como, Parma and Hellas Verona. After the challenge with Udinese there will be to face the very tough test with Atalanta scheduled for Saturday evening.
In the last 4 games Runjaic’s Udinese won only against Palermo in the Italian Cup round of 16, then came defeats against AC Milan and Sassuolo (3-0 and 3-1, respectively) and a draw with Cagliari in the last round. On Monday night, the Friulians will aim to win in order to present themselves at their best for the next challenge against Lecce.
