Juventus v Udinese: Stats and Facts

Juventus is 7-1-2 at home in the Serie A this season. Udinese is 2-5-3 away from home. Juventus scores on average 2 goals per home game this season, while Udinese scores on average 1.3 goals per away game. Form wise Juventus has started poorly after the break. A draw and a loss is not good enough. Udinese has two strong wins at home against Fiorentina and Inter. The last two meetings in Turin (from 2011 until now) has ended with a 2-1 win each. The reverse fixture this season was won 4-1 by Juventus.

Team News and Run of Play

For Juventus Mirko Vucinic is fit after getting some game time last time around. Highly influential box-to-box midfielder Claudio Marchisio is a doubt. Asamoah and Chiellini are expected to be out still as well. Those three are very important to Juventus obviously, but the replacements are not shabby. For Udinese Serbian goalkeeper Zeljko Brkic is ruled out after an operation. Padelli will take his place. Swedish forward Mathias Ranegie is probably still out, but Colombian youngster Muriel has been delivering the goods, this doesn't weaken Udinese at all. Midfielder Agyemang-Badu is probably also still missing from the Udinese line up.

Given the poor run of form for Juventus (perhaps due to some very influential players missing?) I think Udinese has a chance to be on more level terms on the pitch this time around than in the 4-1 trashing in Udine. I do still expect Juventus to run the game possession wise and in terms of shots on goal.

Juventus v Udinese predictions for 1x2

Big names missing for Juventus and poor form vs a good recent results and DiNatales on-fire "Muriel" strike partner makes this a game tougher to call than the lousy odds on offer for Juventus suggests. I suggest Udinese if you want to bet this game 1x2. Betsson currently offers 10.39, and that is a juicy value bet given the circumstances.

Betsson also offers the €100 Risk Free Bet still. If you bet Udinese at 10.39 and lose, your bet will be refunded up to €100. Not a bad proposition for this already valuable bet.
