Venezia vs Udinese Predictions

• Udinese have lost six of their last seven matches
• Udinese have failed to score in four of their last six games
• Seven of Udinese’s last ten games have gone over 2.5 goals

Venezia can edge basement battle

Udinese have turned to Paolo Zanetti to ease their relegation fears after former manager Kosta Runjaic was dismissed. It is worrying times for the White and Blacks, who have lost six of their last seven Serie A matches and have been sliding down the Italian top-flight table. 

Venezia are the only side keeping Udinese off the bottom of the Serie A table, but that may be about to change on Friday night. 

The Winged Lions have lost ten of their last 11 matches and that does not inspire confidence in Davide Nicola’s men taking three points at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo.

However, Venezia did beat Napoli 1-0 on home turf last month and the Winged Lions have been competitive in defeat. 

Nicola’s men only went down to a Lucas da Cunha penalty when losing 1-0 at Como last time out and Venezia recorded an expected goals number of 1.59 when losing 2-0 to Inter. 

Clearly, Venezia are not one of Serie A’s leading lights, but their data is stronger than Udinese’s this season and they are playing a side in turmoil. 

Take the Winged Lions to roar at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo.
