Friday, at 19:30, Juventus will receive Udinese’s visit in a match for the 27th Serie A. The match will take place at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.
After last weekend’s victory in the derby with Napoli (2-1), Juventus has definitively removed any doubts about the name of the winner of the title of champion in Italy this season. With an advance of 16 points in the hierarchy of the Napoletans with only 12 stages before the end, it is obvious that “The Lady of Lady” will put her hand on the eighth consecutive trophy in Serie A. That’s why, thinking about a potential “retreat” against Atletico in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday evening and lacking complications and injuries, we think Allegri’s band will not force. Udinese is certainly a friendly opponent, especially on the ground, but the plans of the “bianconers” in the near future are aimed at trying hard to turn the fate of the qualification against Atletico.
On the other side, Udinese seems to have everything under control in the lower half of the hierarchy. With two vital victories in the last two stages, the “friuli bianconers” departed seven points from the relegation zone, “burying” Bologna with Frosinone and Chievo. Even if Udine groups can not be reproached in case of a failure Friday night, “Allianz Stadium”, it is its duty to try to take advantage of this moment, because it has nothing to lose in the current situation.
In the last ten direct confrontations between the two bands, Juventus was imposed seven times, Udinese only once, while the other two duels ended in a draw;
The previous direct match took place in the tour, when Juventus was forced without emotion, score 2-0;
The last success of the “friuli bianconers” on the “Old Ladder” land dates from August 2015, from a 1-0;
Probable teams:
Juventus (4-3-3): Szczesny- De Sciglio, Bonucci, Chiellini, Alex Sandro- Bentancur, Can, Matuidi- Bernardeschi, Mandzukic, Ronaldo
Udinese (4-3-3): Musso – De Maio, Troost – Ekong, Nuytinck, Zeegelaar – Larsen, Fofana, Mandragora – Pussetto, Okaka, De Paul
Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a spectacular hostile run. Moreover, we believe that at the moment we can take advantage of this 2.15 quota which involves a scenario with goals on both sides, because we see Udinese putting real problems in “Old Ladder”, as this is no longer focusing on the championship.
PREDICTION: Over 2,5 goals @ 1,75
