H2H Stats Matches and Previous Teams Results

Udinese Calcio Team Overview
Udinese has not lost in six consecutive matches. Back in January, the team was experiencing serious problems with earning points, but now it rarely even plays to a draw. The progress of the "Little Zebras" is noticeable to the naked eye. Costa Runjaic's team has become much more confident in attack and has managed to strengthen its defense. Last weekend, Udinese took points away from a formidable opponent like Lazio (1-1) on the road, while creating more dangerous chances at the opponent's goal (1.31-0.84 by xG metric).
The team continues to confidently rise up the league table and already occupies the tenth position, reducing the gap from Milan to 4 points. As for the upcoming clash, the coaching staff will not be able to count on Hassane Kamara (accumulation of yellow cards) and Răzvan Sava (injury). However, the loss of the Romanian goalkeeper is difficult to call critical, considering that after a long-term injury, Maduka Okoye returned to the field (made 4 saves out of 5 in the match against Lazio).

Hellas Verona Team Overview
4 losses in the last 5 matches are not the best results for a team fighting for survival. Yes, during this period Verona faced only serious opponents such as Atalanta, Milan, Fiorentina, Juventus, and Bologna. Nevertheless, this cannot serve as an excuse.
Last weekend, Paolo Zanetti's team failed to take advantage of their home field and lost to the "red-blues" (1-2), who are also not known for their stability. In terms of play, Verona looked quite dull, creating virtually no chances at the opponent's goal. Moreover, the "mastiffs" managed to score their only goal only when they were down to ten men. As for the upcoming clash, the coaching staff will not be able to count on 4 players, including Nicolas Valentini (suspension).

⚽️ Goal Prediction
In recent matches, Udinese has been showing solid defensive play, as confirmed by the statistics. The team managed to keep a clean sheet in 3 of their last 5 games. The "little zebras" only conceded against strong opponents such as Napoli (1-1) and Lazio (1-1). Considering that Verona is languishing at the bottom of the league table, the best decision would be to go for both teams to score (no).
🚩 Corner Prediction
Udinese to win on corners is another fairly reliable betting option. This season, Verona rarely approaches the corner flag-averaging 4.1 times per game. Only Torino (4.0), Venezia (3.7), and Monza (3.5) have worse figures. Udinese, on the other hand, is the complete opposite of Verona. In this statistical parameter, the "little zebras" are in the top 8. Considering that Kostas Runjaic's team is in excellent form and will be playing with the support of their home fans, this bet should come through without any issues.
Editor's Prediction
Udinese approaches the upcoming clash as the favorite, and it's hard to argue with this opinion. The "Little Zebras" have been leaving only positive impressions with their recent performances. The team has collected 14 out of a possible 18 points, achieving the desired result in all matches against less skilled opponents. Verona can be categorized among these clubs. The "Mastiffs" are showing extremely weak play, as evidenced by their goal difference (28-58). If Verona avoids defeats, it's mostly at home and in games against direct competitors in the battle for survival. Therefore, our key bet will be on Udinese's victory. It's likely that the hosts will win with a score of 2-0.
