Monday night’s Serie A clash at the Stadio Giovanni Zini sees Cremonese welcome Udinese in what promises to be a tense and closely contested fixture between two sides eager to re-establish momentum. Both clubs have endured mixed early-season form, but with just a single point separating them in the standings, this match carries significant weight.
This Bet Builder combines selections from the match result and player performance markets, focusing on patterns of play, tactical match-ups, and key individual metrics. Each leg of the bet has been selected using form trends, statistical data, and historical context to create a structured and informed betting proposition.
Here’s our Bet Builder pick for Cremonese vs Udinese, which has been placed with Bet365!
Why this pick
Nicola’s side are robust at the Stadio Giovanni Zini and generally restrict chances at home. Udinese’s away form and creativity wobble, plus a long barren run at this ground, tilt the edge toward the hosts in a tight contest.
Why this pick
Whether starting or off the bench, Sanabria finds pockets in the box and gets his shots away quickly. Udinese’s reshuffled back line leaves central gaps; expect at least one accurate effort from Cremonese’s sharp finisher.
Why this pick
The veteran playmaker drifts between lines and shoots from medium range and set pieces. With Cremonese set to see more of the ball at home, Vázquez’s technique should translate into at least one on-target attempt.
Home resilience plus Udinese’s travel issues back Cremonese to edge it, while Sanabria and Vázquez provide steady on-target threat. The legs align with form, roles and expected territory at 13/2.
Cremonese vs Udinese Bet Builder Tip
1. Full-Time Result: Cremonese to Win
Rationale:
Cremonese have developed a strong reputation at home under Davide Nicola, remaining unbeaten at the Stadio Giovanni Zini since their Serie A return. Despite their heavy 4-1 loss to Inter Milan before the international break, that defeat came away from home and does not reflect their typically composed home performances.
The Grigiorossi have collected nine points from their first six league matches – their best-ever start in the top flight. Nicola’s sides are known for their resilience and adaptability, and his team’s early-season defensive structure has limited clear-cut chances for visiting teams. Historically, Cremonese have enjoyed the upper hand over Udinese in home meetings, losing just three of 21 encounters in Cremona, a record that underlines their comfort on home soil.
Udinese’s away record is concerning. They have gone over three decades without a win at this ground, and their current run of just one point from the last nine available highlights persistent problems both in defence and in creativity. While they have shown glimpses of attacking improvement through Christian Kabasele’s recent goal, consistency remains an issue for Kosta Runjaic’s men.
Cremonese’s balance between experienced campaigners like Franco Vázquez and industrious midfielders such as Grassi and Bondo should give them an edge in controlling possession and creating high-quality opportunities. Home advantage, historical dominance, and superior tactical organisation combine to make Cremonese a well-supported pick for the win.

2. Player Shots on Target: Antonio Sanabria – 1+
Rationale:
Antonio Sanabria has been in contention for a starting spot and offers a sharp attacking outlet should he be included in Davide Nicola’s plans. Even when used from the bench, the Paraguayan forward consistently manages to test goalkeepers, using his intelligent movement and quick release to find shooting space inside the box.
Cremonese have attempted the fewest shots of any team so far this season (35 in six games), but their attacking metrics are improving as Nicola refines his system. Sanabria’s expected shots on target (xSoT) rate remains healthy, typically hovering around one per 90 minutes across recent seasons. Given Udinese’s defensive frailties – particularly when pressed through central areas – the striker is well-positioned to at least register one effort on target.
Udinese’s defensive line, currently disrupted by the absence of Thomas Kristensen, has been forced to adjust, with Kabasele covering at centre-back. This reshuffle could present opportunities for Sanabria to exploit gaps in positioning, particularly if he partners Jamie Vardy or operates as a lone forward supported by Vázquez.
The combination of opportunism, experience, and shot efficiency makes Sanabria’s single shot on target a smart and statistically supported inclusion in this Bet Builder.
3. Player Shots on Target: Franco Vázquez – 1+
Rationale:
Veteran playmaker Franco Vázquez remains an integral figure in Cremonese’s attacking system, orchestrating play between the lines while posing a genuine goal threat himself. His technical quality, composure, and intelligent positioning allow him to operate both as a creative midfielder and a secondary striker.
Vázquez has been one of the most active shooters in the Cremonese squad this season, frequently drifting into advanced areas to test goalkeepers from medium range. In matches where Cremonese dominate possession, such as those at home, he tends to record at least one shot on target, either from open play or direct free-kicks.
Facing an Udinese defence that has conceded seven goals in their last three league outings, the Argentine should find space to operate. With Bowen-style inside runs and confidence to strike from distance, Vázquez’s influence will be key in breaking down Udinese’s compact shape. His creativity often translates into shooting opportunities when opponents sit deep, as his technique allows him to generate power and accuracy under pressure.
Given the tactical set-up, Vázquez’s ability to test the goalkeeper at least once appears a strong statistical and tactical proposition for this Bet Builder.
