Hard fight to call.  I could see Jury giving Diego problems with his more calculated and technical style, but if the Jury that fought Mike Ricci shows up, Diego will probably smash right through him.

Diego Sanchez is one of the most exciting fighters out there, I feel he gets a lot of flack for the judges making the wrong call. If you go back through his 19 fight career in the UFC, he's had classic bouts with Nick Diaz, Karo Parisyan, Paulo Thiago, Martin Kampmann, Jake Ellenberger, and Gilbert Melendez. 

Now factor in that Diego Sanchez has never been finished in his career via submission or knockout, and that his only loss via finish was a cut to BJ Penn. Then go back and look at his career through TUF, and the accomplishment of winning.

@Frontkick, what about the Guida fight?
