Inter vs Udinese Prediction 31 August 2025
📢 Can Udinese halt Inter's attacking powerhouse, or will the Nerazzurri confidently secure their second consecutive victory? Christian Chivu's side kicked off the season with a stunning 5-0 thrashing of Torino, signaling their intent to challenge for the title once again. Meanwhile, Udinese, despite summer changes, remain a second-tier team. Yes, the "Little Zebras" can spring surprises, but facing an opponent of this caliber makes it extremely difficult for them to hope for success. The match will take place at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.
Head-to-Head
📊 The head-to-head history between Inter and Udinese favors the Milan club: out of 38 encounters, the Nerazzurri have claimed 25 victories, while the Little Zebras have managed just 8, with 5 matches ending in a draw. Last season was particularly telling - the teams faced each other three times (twice in Serie A and once in the Coppa Italia), and Inter emerged victorious on each occasion.

Udinese Calcio Team Overview
⚪ The "Little Zebras" finished last season in 12th place, but their end-of-season performance raised many questions: the team lost eight of their last ten matches and appeared demoralized. Over the summer, the club aimed for a reset by making several strategic transfers and refreshing the squad, albeit without any high-profile signings.
📌 The start of the new season for the "Little Zebras" has been mixed. In the first round, they faced Verona on home turf and were closer to securing a win. Udinese looked stronger, managed to score first, and controlled the game, but ultimately failed to maintain their lead. The match ended in a 1-1 draw, leaving a sense of unfinished business.

Inter Milano
📣 Following Inter's commanding 5-0 victory over Torino, forward Marcus Thuram emphasized the significance of a strong start: "This win is crucial as it sets a positive tone for the season and we managed to keep a clean sheet. We're not at 100% yet, but we're getting there. It was a solid match." Defender Alessandro Bastoni highlighted the team's determination to prove themselves after a challenging end to last season: "We were all highly motivated and wanted to prove-first and foremost to ourselves-that despite last season's tough finish, we still have the hunger and desire to showcase our capabilities."
🚫 Inter head into their next match with a clean bill of health-every player is available for the coaching staff.
Udinese Calcio
📣 Head coach Kosta Runjaic, following the 1-1 home draw with Verona, noted that the start of the season is always challenging: "We understand the difficulties of the opening rounds-it's always a unique time. Verona's plan was clear: defend deep and hit on the counter. We didn't make many mistakes, but in the first half, we lacked off-the-ball movement and a bit of creativity. We discussed this at halftime, managed to take the lead, and even after that, we controlled the game, but something was still missing."
🚫 Udinese have one player out ahead of the upcoming match: Matteo Palma is sidelined with a muscle injury and is expected to return by mid-September.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Recent head-to-head encounters between Inter and Udinese have consistently delivered high-scoring affairs, with the over 2.5 goals bet winning in their last seven Serie A clashes. Moreover, Inter themselves are capable of putting on a show, as evidenced by their opening match where the Nerazzurri netted five goals against Torino (5-0). With such attacking prowess, Inter could easily surpass this threshold on their own.
🚩 Corner Prediction
In their head-to-head matchups, Inter typically take the initiative, controlling possession and pushing Udinese back towards their goal. However, this doesn't always translate into a high number of corners. In fact, in 6 of their last 7 meetings, Inter haven't managed more than six corners. This trend also holds in official matches overall, with the Nerazzurri failing to reach seven corners in 19 consecutive games. Therefore, we predict Inter under 6.5 corners.
Editor's Prediction
Inter head into the match as clear favorites, and it's hard to argue with the bookmakers' stance. Their emphatic 5-0 victory over Torino in the opening round not only made for a brilliant start but also boosted Christian Chivu's squad's confidence. On home turf, the Nerazzurri traditionally perform powerfully and rarely allow opponents even a draw. Moreover, Udinese remains a favorable matchup for the Milan club. In recent seasons, the "Little Zebras" have failed to snatch even a single point, consistently falling to the Milan side. Therefore, a bet on Inter to win with a -1 handicap seems like a sensible choice. We anticipate a 3-0 scoreline on the board.
