On Friday, April 11, in the 32nd round of Serie A, Udinese will host Milan. The game kicks off at 20:45 Central European Time. I suggest betting on goals in this match.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history
- Udinese is on a three-match losing streak.
- Milan has conceded at least 1 goal in 7 consecutive Serie A matches.
- Milan has won only 1 of their last 7 away matches in Serie A.
- In the 8th round of this season, Milan defeated Udinese 1-0.
Match preview
Udinese is a classic mid-table team in Serie A. This season, the "Zebras" have nothing to claim, as they sit in 11th place with 40 points. They are 16 points clear of the relegation zone and 13 points behind the European competition spots. So, Kosta Runjaić's team can simply play out the season calmly.
In the previous round, Udinese was close to earning points against Genoa but conceded a decisive goal at the end. Before that, the "Zebras" lost to Inter (1-2), Verona (0-1), and drew 1-1 with Lazio.
Milan is having a disastrous season. The Rossoneri have already changed their head coach mid-season, replacing Paulo Fonseca with Sérgio Conceição. But the results have only worsened. Milan sits in ninth place with 48 points, and even reaching European competitions would be a huge success.
Last weekend, the Rossoneri were on the verge of losing to Fiorentina, but they managed to draw 2-2, despite being down 0-2 during the game. Before that, Milan lost to Napoli (1-2), and also defeated Como (2-1) and Lecce (3-2).
The Italian Cup could save Milan's season, where they have reached the semifinals and drew 1-1 with Inter in the first leg. So, the Rossoneri have a decent chance of reaching the final.
Possible line-ups
- Udinese: Okoye, Sole, Bijol, Kristensen, Kamara, Ehizibue, Lovrić, Karlström, Atta, Ekkelenkamp, Lucca
- Milan: Maignan, Hernandez, Walker, Gabbia, Thiaw, Reijnders, Musa, Fofana, Leão, Pulisic, Abraham
Udinese vs Milan match prediction
Considering all of Milan's defensive problems and Udinese's strong attack, I predict that both teams will score in this game.
