Main card predictions for UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Spivac

Jack Della Maddalena vs. Danny Roberts

Danny Roberts is fresh off a decision loss to Francisco Trinaldo this past May. The Liverpudlian is 2-3 in his last five UFC appearances.

Jack Della Maddalena, on the other hand, has been on a roll lately. The Australian is set to make his third promotional appearance next Saturday on the back of a 12-fight win streak.

The 26-year-old is coming off back-to-back first-round TKO finishes with his latest triumph coming over Ramazan Emeev in June. The Aussie is expected to continue his strong form and pull off another win on Saturday.

Verdict: Jack Della Maddalena

Andre Fialho vs. Muslim Salikhov

Andre Fialho has lacked consistency since joining the UFC ranks earlier this year. The 28-year-old is 2-2 under the promotional banner and was brutally knocked out by Jake Matthews last time out in June.

His opponent, Muslim Salikhov, is coming off a TKO defeat at the hands of Jingliang Li in July. The loss ended his five-fight win streak; however, the Dagestani is expected to get back into the win column in his next outing.

Verdict: Muslim Salikhov

Chase Sherman vs. Waldo Cortes-Acosta

After going on a four-fight losing skid, Chase Sherman bounced back with a third-round TKO of Jared Vanderaa in July. 'The Vanilla Gorilla' will now look to pick up his second straight win.

Waldo Cortes-Acosta is set to make his second UFC appearance on Saturday. The undefeated prospect edged out Jared Vanderaa last month and is set to make a quick turnaround. 'Salsa Boy' will be hoping to pick up his ninth straight victory on Saturday and is expected to get his hands raised.

Verdict: Waldo Cortes-Acosta

Rodolfo Vieira vs. Cody Brundage

Rodolfo Vieira hasn't found much success inside the octagon recently. 'The Black Belt Hunter' was edged out by Chris Curtis in June and is 1-2 in his last three outings.

Cody Brundage had an unsuccessful start to his promotional career, but bounced back in impressive fashion, picking up back-to-back first-round stoppage wins. The 28-year-old is coming off a knockout finish of Tresean Gore in July and is expected to carry that momentum into his next fight.

Verdict: Cody Brundage

Ion Cuțelaba vs. Kennedy Nzechukwu

Ion Cuțelaba has struggled for consistency throughout his UFC career. 'The Hulk' is coming off two straight first-round submission losses with his recent defeat coming against Johnny Walker in September.

Kennedy Nzechukwu suffered back-to-back defeats for the first time in his career through 2021-22. However, he bounced back in spectacular fashion, scoring a third-round TKO win over Karl Roberson in July. 'African Savage' is expected to continue his winning ways when he takes on Cutelaba on Saturday.

Verdict: Kennedy Nzechukwu

Derrick Lewis vs. Serghei Spivac

Derrick Lewis's octagon career has been on a slide lately. 'The Black Beast' has gone 1-3 in his last four bouts and is fresh off a first-round TKO loss at the hands of Serghei Pavlovich in July.

Prior to that defeat, Lewis was viciously knocked out by Tai Tuivasa in February. The 37-year-old is in dire need of a victory to maintain his place in the top 10 rankings.

Serghei Spivac, meanwhile, has looked impressive of late with back-to-back finishes. In his most recent outing, 'The Polar Bear' dispatched Augusto Sakai with a second-round TKO and is expected to continue his strong run of form at the upcoming UFC Fight Night event on Saturday.

Verdict: Serghei Spivac
