SPAL play host to Udinese on Thursday evening knowing that they need to end their four-match winless streak as soon as possible in order to retain hope of remaining in Serie A.
Meanwhile, Udinese head into the contest at Stadio Paolo Mazza having recorded four points from their last two matches, results which have helped the club move away from the relegation zone.
We say: SPAL 1-2 Udinese
With Gotti finally getting a positive response out of his team, we can only back the visitors to build on their recent form against opposition who have little choice but to throw caution to the wind on Thursday evening.

Inter Milan make the trip to Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi to face Hellas Verona knowing that they realistically require maximum points if they are to remain in the Serie A title race.
Meanwhile, Verona are under pressure to improve on a run of just one win in four games, which has left the club battling to remain in contention for a Europa League spot.
We say: Hellas Verona 1-1 Inter Milan
While Inter can ill-afford any more dropped points, Verona will be placing priority on improving at the back. Taking both things into consideration, we feel that a low-scoring draw is the most likely scoreline, a result which does not necessarily help either team.
