The countdown has begun for the Udinese-Cagliari match, scheduled for Sunday at 12:30.

Looking at the Sardinian team's opponents, Friuli fans have been waiting seven months to celebrate a home victory. Their last victory dates back to last season: on March 1st, the Bianconeri narrowly defeated Parma, then coached by Cristian Chivu. Since then, their only victories have come away from Friuli.

For Sunday's lunchtime match against Cagliari, Runjaic will have Bayo back, who has recovered from injury, while caution is being exercised over Buksa, who underwent surgery last week for a fractured cheekbone and nasal bones. Iker Bravo remains out due to his involvement with Spain at the Under-20 World Cup. The back three should return with the inclusion of Bertola. In midfield, Lovric threatens Piotrowski's starting spot.

Zaniolo is a candidate to be Davis's attacking partner. There's still a battle on the flanks: Ehizibue and Zanoli compete on the right, Kamara and Zemura on the left.
