Udinese take on the visitors Chievo at "Dacia Arena" in the starting matchday of the Italian Serie A of 2017/2018 season. The game will be played in Udine on Sunday, August 20th.
Last season Udinese settled on the 13th position in the elite division table with 45 points earned, 47 goals for and 56 goals against. In summer "Zebrette" made solid squad's enforcement as for them, having signed Kevin Lasagna, Giuseppe Pezzella, Bram Nuytinck, Riad Bajić and Valon Behrami. Luigi Delneri's side succeeded in summer fights, having taken two victories, three draws and a single loss in six encounters.

Chievo finished previous season at the 14th place in the standings with 43 points taken just behind Udinese. In summer "Mussi Volanti" rented a number of players as well as gave in loan a lot of their performers. In summer Rolando Maran's team participated in six friendlies recording four wins and two draws in them. Chievo started their pace in the Coppa Italia with 2:1 victory over Ascoli.
Four out of six rivals' head-to-heads ended with draws and last time the hosts won was in 2014. I believe that this time as well the opponents will play a draw as they are the sides of nearly the same level. However, I prefer to play it safe and take the hosting side with the Asian handicap as "Zebrette" have not to lose in front of their supporters in the battle with equal opponent.
Prediction for the match: Udinese to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
