Udinese vs Crotone prediction, preview, team news and more | Coppa Italia 2021-22

Seeking to end their dire winless run and progress into the next round of the Coppa Italia, Crotone travel to the Dacia Arena to face Udinese on Tuesday.

The hosts, meanwhile, head into the game without a win in any of their last six games in all competitions and will be looking to end this dry spell.

Udinese failed to arrest their slump in form as they were held to a late 1-1 draw by AC Milan last time out.

Gabriele Cioffi’s men have now failed to taste victory in any of their most recent six games, picking up four draws and losing two in that time.

Udinese now turn their attention to the Coppa Italia, where they secured a 3-1 win over Ascoli in their opening game back in August.

Meanwhile, Crotone made it into the last 16 of the cup competition by the skin of their teeth as they saw off Brescia on penalties after a 2-2 draw in normal time.

Pasquale Marino’s side head into Tuesday’s game in dire form, losing their last five games and picking up just one point in their most recent nine Serie B encounters.

This horrid run of results sees them sit in 18th place in the Serie B table, 12 points adrift of Parma outside the drop zone.
