Udinese

WWDLLL 📉

Udinese will be looking to improve on their last outing here following a 1-0 Serie A loss in their previous game against Genoa.

In that match, Udinese managed 46% possession and 5 attempts at goal with 2 of them on target. On the other side, Genoa got 13 attempts on goal with 7 on target. Alessandro Zanoli (77') scored for Genoa.

Fewer than three goals per match were recorded in 5 of the past 6 fixtures where Udinese have been participants. In terms of the goal attribution during that period, their opponents scored an aggregate of 5 while Udinese totted up 4. That pattern isn’t assured to be sustained into this next game, though.

Going into this one, Udinese have not won against AC Milan in their previous 2 league games.

📰 Team News: Udinese

Florian Thauvin (Arch problems), Keinan Davis (unknown injury), Răzvan Sava (Finger injury), Isaak Touré (Knee bruise), Alexis Sánchez (Calf injury) and Jordan Zemura (Calf problems) are not available for Udinese boss Kosta Runjaić.

It seems likely that Bianconeri Friuliani will probably line up in a 4-4-2 formation this time and select Maduka Okoye, Kingsley Ehizibue, Jaka Bijol, Oumar Solet, Hassane Kamara, Arthur Atta, Sandi Lovric, Jesper Karlstroem, Jurgen Ekkelenkamp, Lorenzo Lucca and Iker Bravo.

📰 Team News: AC Milan

AC Milan manager Sérgio Conceição has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Ruben Loftus-Cheek (Appendectomy), Kyle Walker (Broken arm), Santiago Gimenez (bruise) and Emerson Royal (Calf injury) will miss out on this game.

It’s our belief that i Rossoneri could decide to play in a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting the game with Mike Maignan, Alex Jimenez, Matteo Gabbia, Malick Thiaw, Theo Hernandez, Warren Bondo, Youssouf Fofana, Christian Pulisic, Tijjani Reijnders, Rafael Leao and Tammy Abraham.

✨ Prediction

We feel that Udinese will do well to score against this AC Milan outfit who should manage to get a goal of their own in a winning performance.

We therefore see a very even contest with a 0-1 winning margin for AC Milan at the end of this one.

There should be little in it.
