Udinese vs Venezia Prediction 1 February 2025

🔊 Will Udinese be able to please their fans in the upcoming clash? The "Little Zebras" have had a disappointing run in their last 5 matches, failing to secure a single victory. Despite Venezia being in the relegation zone, they do not appear to be a pushover (only 2 losses in 8 games). In this situation, we will attempt to analyze all the strengths and weaknesses of the opponents to provide you with an accurate prediction for the Serie A matchday 23 game, which will take place at the "Bluenergy Stadium".

📊 Head-to-Head

It is difficult to find any trend in their head-to-head encounters. The teams have rarely faced each other on the football field recently. Since 2003, Udinese and Venezia have played only 3 official matches against each other. As for the last meeting, which took place in the first round, the "Winged Lions" surprisingly won (3-2).

⚪ Udinese

It is hard to find positive aspects in Udinese's play. The team, which started the new season successfully, has been showing less than acceptable results lately. The "Little Zebras" have been unable to win for 5 matches (3 draws and 2 losses), resulting in them dropping to eleventh place in the league table. In the previous round, for example, Udinese lost at home to Roma with a score of 1-2, conceding 2 unnecessary penalties. All would be fine if this victory for the "She-Wolf" wasn't their first away win of the current season. Regarding the upcoming clash, the coaching staff will not be able to count on 5 players, including key midfielder Jesper Karlström (accumulation of yellow cards).

🟠 Venezia

Venezia continues to gradually move towards the safe 17th position. Yes, the team rarely secures 3 points, but they have stopped losing. In the stretch of the last 8 matches, the "Winged Lions" have only been defeated twice - 0-1 against Inter and Napoli. In the previous round, for example, Venezia drew with Verona (1-1), and they led for a significant period (from the 28th to the 76th minute). As for the upcoming clash, there is considerable doubt about the participation of 5 players, including key defenders Michael Svoboda and Marin Šverko.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

There is an opinion that the upcoming match will be low-scoring. This season, Udinese and Venezia rarely find the key to their opponents' goals. If the "Little Zebras" have scored 25 goals, then the "Winged Lions" have only troubled opposing goalkeepers on 20 occasions. It is also worth noting that in Venezia's last 5 matches, no more than 2 goals were scored. Therefore, our betting option is total under 2.5.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Venezia continues to be at the bottom of Serie A in terms of corners earned. The team approaches the corner flag an average of 3.5 times per game, and this level has been maintained since the start of the championship. Away from home, the "Winged Lions" hardly play as the dominant side, so a bet on Venezia's total corners under 4.5 seems like a very reliable option.

📝 Editorial Prediction

According to bookmakers, Udinese is a clear favorite in the upcoming clash. And we completely disagree with them on this matter. Recently, Venezia has been showing exclusively positive results. Yes, their game is still far from perfect, and in all statistical indicators, they lag behind their opponents. However, the team has learned to scrape points, which is much more important at this stage of the season. And most interestingly, even Napoli and Inter, who are main contenders for the title, managed to narrowly defeat Eusebio Di Francesco's team (both 0-1). Considering that Udinese is not having the best of times, our main betting option will be Venezia win with a handicap (+1). We believe the match will end with a score of 1-1.
