Udinese vs Inter Milan

Dacia Arena forms the backdrop as Udinese and Inter Milan meet in a top-six Serie A six-pointer.

Udinese picked themselves up from a 1-0 halftime deficit to thrash Sassuolo 3-1 on the road last time out and extend their winning Serie A streak to four matches. Seeking their fifth top-flight victory in a row for the first time since December 2017, the ‘Friulians’ are enjoying their joint-best Serie A start in history. However, there’s no room for complacency as they’ve won none of their last nine league meetings with Inter (D2, L7) since a 3-1 triumph at Giuseppe Meazza in 2017. Moreover, Andrea Sottil’s men failed to get on the scoresheet in seven of those nine H2Hs, which has been the case in four of their last five league encounters at the Dacia Arena. Inspired by a 4-1 thumping of Roma in their most recent Serie A home outing, they could change their fate this weekend.

In the meantime, Inter Milan followed up a narrow 1-0 home win over Torino in the previous Serie A round with a 2-0 away victory over Viktoria Plzen in midweek Champions League action. But ‘I Nerazzurri’ have been the epitome of inconsistency of late, alternating between winning (3) and losing (2) across their last five Serie A outings. What’s more, Simone Inzaghi’s men have lost back-to-back away league matches in the build-up to this trip, conceding precisely three goals in each. On the bright side, last season’s Serie A runners-up have only lost two of their 19 previous top-flight visits to Udinese (W11, D6), most recently succumbing to a loss at Friuli in 2013.
