Udinese - Juventus predictions

A home win would be a big surprise in this match. Udinese are the underdogs here and it will be a huge surprise if they end up grabbing a win here.

With 2.00 odds for an away win, Juventus have a rather clear path to victory. Still, there’s plenty of room for an upset in a match like this, so other options are still worth considering.

Udinese are coming off from an exciting away match in the Serie A. In a highly-contested clash away from home, they managed to snatch a first-half lead and were hoping to claim what would have been a surprise triumph. However, their rivals regrouped and levelled the score in the second 45 minutes, forcing Udinese to settle for a draw.

Juventus played their last Serie A match at home. They were seen as strong favourites to land a win against Parma, but it didn’t start well for them. Juve went a goal down and spent the entire second half trying to catch up. They succeeded ultimately, ending the game with a 2:2 draw.

Though the 5 concessions over the past 3 away games for Udinese may not directly affect this particular match, such a history may be cause for concern for their supporters.

Maintaining their defences has been a bit of a struggle for Juventus lately. They ended up conceding 5 goals over the 3 most recent matches alone, leaving many fans disappointed.

The fact that Udinese are heavily outmatched in this game does not bode well for their table position. They’re number 6th as we move into round 11, which means they still have most of the season to worry about if they want to grab the coveted Champions League spot.

Juve are off to a positive start to the new Serie A campaign. Currently 7 points behind the league leaders, the visitors are within the Champions League spots. There might be a long road ahead of them but 2.00 betting odds offered at bookies on their win here suggest they might be about to take another step in the right direction.

We last saw these two teams clash in the previous season when Juve walked away with a decisive victory. Both the bookies and most betting tips are expecting another win for them here.

On top of being considered underdogs, the home team is forced to play with a limited roster. With Florian Thauvin, Gerard Deulofeu, Thomas Kristensen, Jurgen Ekkelenkamp, Arthur Atta all unavailable due to injury, they have very limited means at their disposal to beat the odds.

With no injuries to speak of on the visiting side, the favourites will be heading into this fixture with full force.

Sadly, we can’t get good value here and still stay cautious. An HT/FT bet for Draw/Away is the best option due to the visitor’s tendency to stumble in the first half.
