Udinese vs Juventus 20.08.2023 Prediction: Serie A

Match Overview

Juventus travel to the Dacia Arena Football Stadium to take on Udinese in the first round of the Serie A competition on Sunday. Both these teams will be keen on getting off to a good start in the new season and it will be nice to see the players trying their newfound skills out. Juventus will feel that they are the stronger of the two teams at the moment.

Key Highlights

Udinese, who have scored a mammoth 13 goals in the last eight matches that they have played, will feel very confident. Juventus, on the other hand, have scored a measly six in their last five outings. Recent form suggests that Juventus might have a tough time in this game against Udinese. The home team have also won four out of the last five matches that they have participated in. 

Injury Report

Gerald Deulofeu, Kingsley Ehzibue and Enzo Ebosse will not be available for selection for Udinese owing to the unfortunate injuries that they sustained earlier in the season. Juventus, on the other hand, do not have the availabilities of Mattia de Sciglio and Nicolo Fagioli. 

Prediction

Juventus appear to have the upperhand over Udinese in this game. We expect them to either win this match or end it as a drawn encounter. When these two teams last met, in June earlier this year, Juventus managed to scrape through by a narrow yet significant 1-0 scoreline. Udinese will feel that they need to play out of their skins to stop Juventus.
