On Monday, of course, there is a weaker betting offer than in the previous few days, and this time we have analyzed the duel that will be played in Udine, where Udinese will host Inter. The start of the match between these two teams is scheduled for 20:45.
Udinese: A defeat would seriously complicate the situation!
Udinese was founded way back in 1896, and never in their history have the black and whites won the Italian championship title, with three Serie B championship trophies to their name. Last season, the popular Zebras finished in twelfth place in the table, and for years it has been the case that this team relatively calmly brings the season to an end, but it remains to be seen whether this will be the case this time as well. Currently, Gabrielle Cioffi’s charges are in fifteenth place in the table, just two points above the relegation zone, and it must be noted that the team from Friuli has a quite challenging schedule ahead, as they still have to play matches against Inter, Roma, Napoli, and this season’s impressive Bologna.
In their last five matches in the top tier of Italian football, Cioffi’s pupils have achieved only one victory, with two draws and as many defeats. In the last round, the popular Zebras drew away at Sassuolo, who also desperately need points in the relegation battle, with the match ending 1:1. Before that, Udinese suffered an unpleasant defeat at their home stadium against Torino, with that match at Friuli ending 2:0. The last league victory for the former Italian representative in the Champions League was achieved just under a month ago away at Lazio, which was certainly a big surprise, and we must not forget the victory over Juventus in the middle of Turin, just under two months ago.
Regarding home performances, the team from Udine has played fifteen matches at their stadium so far, interestingly achieving only one victory, with as many as nine draws, but also five defeats, making Udinese the second weakest home team, only surpassed by Salernitana, who are already seen as destined for Serie B. Finally, the last head-to-head duel between Udinese and Inter was played at the beginning of December last year, with the Nerazzurri celebrating a more than convincing 4:0 victory.
Inter: The Nerazzurri traditionally struggle in Udine!
Last season was successful for the Nerazzurri, despite the team not winning the Scudetto, but they did win the Italian Cup and reached the Champions League final, where the Italian representative was defeated by Manchester City. This time, the primary goal was the Scudetto, and as things stand now, it seems that only a miracle could prevent the Nerazzurri from ending up without the Serie A winner’s trophy. Currently, Simone Inzaghi’s men are in first place in the table with an eleven-point lead over second-placed Milan, who have played one more match since the Rossoneri celebrated a tough away win against Fiorentina, ending 1:2.
With only seven matches left in the championship, it seems unrealistic for anyone to catch up with Inter’s huge advantage over their closest rivals. In their last five league matches, Inter has achieved four wins and just one draw, that being at their home stadium against the current champions Napoli, ending 1:1. In the last round, the Serie A table leaders triumphed at home against Empoli, with the match ending 2:0, further consolidating their position. Unfortunately, this time Inter failed to reach the final stages of the Champions League, as the Italian representative was eliminated in the round of 16 by Atletico Madrid, who were better after penalties.
Additionally, the Milanese giant was also knocked out of the Cup by Bologna in the round of 16. However, as we have already mentioned, it’s good that the Nerazzurri are playing their best in their priority competition, which is, of course, Serie A. Looking at away performances, the table leader and most likely future champion of Italy has played fourteen away matches, achieving twelve victories and only two draws, making Inzaghi’s pupils the best visiting team in Serie A. Udinese has often been fatal for the Nerazzurri, with the last league triumph by the popular Zebras being two years ago when it was 3:1 at Friuli, and it seems that the team from Giuseppe Meazza is facing a tough task.
