Udinese vs Roma Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 31 October 2026
📢 How will the match between Udinese and Roma at the Bluenergy Stadium unfold? The two sides have had contrasting first nine rounds of Serie A, with the hosts sitting in the lower half of the table while Roma are comfortably in the leading group. Udinese need to turn things around now, so Roma are not being promised an easy ride.
Roma have a massive head-to-head advantage
📊 The head-to-head record between Udinese and Roma spans 40 matches in recent years. The statistics show a clear dominance by the Roman club: Roma have won 28 times, while Udinese have come out on top on just 9 occasions, with 3 draws. Last season, however, the two sides exchanged home wins, both of which were clean sheets. Roma comfortably beat their opponents at the Stadio Olimpico (2-0), before Udinese got their revenge on home soil (1-0).
Head-to-head statistics Udinese - Roma
Udinese without a win in seven matches
There is little left of Udinese's promising start to the season. The Friulians, who gave cause for optimism in the opening rounds, have found themselves in a deep crisis. The club have gone seven matches without a win, losing six of them. It was only in the previous round that they managed to end that run and pick up at least a point. Even so, there is not much to be cheerful about: after nine rounds, Udinese have just five points and are only two points above the bottom of the table.
In the previous round, Udinese travelled to Parma, who are going through similar difficulties and also have five points. The meeting of two struggling sides was tense but goalless (0-0). Udinese were close to yet another defeat, as the hosts were awarded a penalty but failed to convert it. Interestingly, in terms of the actual play, Udinese looked the better side. Despite the penalty being given against them, they outperformed Parma in expected goals (1.61 to 1.17). The result was that instead of a much-needed win, they had to settle for a single point that barely improved their league position.

Roma show no signs of slowing down
Unlike Udinese, Roma have every reason to look at the table with optimism. They have made a brilliant start to the new season and remain unbeaten in Serie A after nine rounds. The club sit third with 21 points, just four points off the top. Those results mean the team can genuinely set their sights on the highest positions.
In the previous round, Roma claimed another impressive win, beating Cagliari 4-2 at home. The result is particularly noteworthy given that the Sardinians had one of the most reliable defensive records in the division at the start of the season, yet even that defence proved no match for Roma's attacking power. Interestingly, the match began poorly for the hosts: as early as the tenth minute they conceded a penalty through an error in their own box and found themselves chasing the game. However, the early setback did not unsettle them at all - Roma quickly took control and ultimately outplayed their opponents completely.

Total Goals Prediction
Udinese's defence has long been an open book for Roma. The Romans regularly find weaknesses in Udinese's defensive shape and rarely settle for just one goal: in 6 of their last 7 Serie A head-to-head meetings, Roma scored at least twice. The team have also shown impressive attacking efficiency this season more broadly, scoring more than one goal in 12 of their last 13 matches. Given Roma's current form and Udinese's prolonged difficulties, we are backing Roma Team Total - Over 1.5 Goals at odds of 1.59*.
Corners Prediction
Roma know how to score goals, but they also maintain constant pressure on opposition defences, which shows up in their corner count. They average 6.0 corners per match - the third-highest figure in Serie A. Against an Udinese side going through a difficult spell, the visitors will likely look to take control from the first minute and spend the majority of the match in the opposition half. Our pick is Roma to win the corner count at odds of 1.51*.
Yellow Cards Prediction
Roma matches rarely pass without a high number of bookings. They prefer to play fast, attacking football, which forces opponents to stop dangerous moves with fouls. Roma themselves are not shy about going in hard either, particularly when they need to break up an opposition counter-attack. As a result, referees have shown at least three yellow cards in each of Roma's last six matches. Our pick is Total Yellow Cards - Over 2.5.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
The bookmakers make Roma clear favourites for this one, and it is hard to argue with that assessment. The two sides have had very different starts to the season, and the performances back that up. On top of that, Udinese have historically been a convenient opponent for Roma when it comes to head-to-head meetings. Our main bet is therefore a Roma win. Predicted score: 1-3.
