Udinese vs Torino Prediction & Betting Tips (29 December)

After showing some great promise in the first part of the season, Udinese has been back in line for several months now. The euphoria of the beginnings is over, I primi Bianconeri d'Italia are no longer in contact with the best teams in Serie A and they now find themselves in a very dense mid-table with a rather small lead of 4 points in the red zone. After being able to achieve a welcome victory against Monza 1-2, Florian Thauvin's partners were dominated by Napoli 1-3 then by Inter 2-0 in the Italian Cup. Monday evening, they challenge Fiorentina. Opposite, Torino must once again take their place in the second half of the table this year.

Still faced with its fairly constant irregularity, this team appears this time in 12th place in this championship with only a small point behind its opponent of the day. Recently, the Piedmontese had been beaten by Naples 0-1 before stringing together 2 rather positive results against Genoa 0-0 and against Empoli 0-1. But last weekend, Il Toro fell again at home against Bologna 0-2.

Udinese is still missing a few elements for this part. Indeed, the number 1 goalkeeper Okoye and the potential holders Payero, Zarraga (midfielders) and Davis are missing. (striker, 2 goals in SA). Announced uncertain on Monday evening for the trip to Florence, the important midfielder Lovric and the defender Giannetti will undoubtedly be well recovered this weekend. After a great start to the season like his team, the former Marseillais Thauvin (4 goals and 2 assists in SA) seriously made a mark before finding the net again 15 days ago. International Italian Lucca (5 goals in SA) should also appear in the 11.

On the Torino side, the important striker Zapata (end of season) and long-term absentees Schuurs, Savva and Ilkhan will not be able to put their names on the scoresheet this weekend. Conversely, senior defender Coco will be back after being suspended following a accumulation of yellow cards. The offensive sector of this formation is still led by the Scottish striker Adams (4 goals in SA). The former Bordelais Karamoh is still silent.
