Udinese

Let's discuss the home team, Udinese. They are currently in 16th place in the league table, having collected 17 points. They stand three points clear of the relegation zone. They've managed just two victories in their 18 Serie A outings. Their goal statistics are 18 for and 28 against. In their most recent five matches, they've managed one win, but also suffered just one defeat. They let in 4 unanswered goals at Inter. However, in their last round, they netted three times against Bologna keeping a clean sheet.

Lazio

Let's talk about Lazio now. The club is currently in 9th position in the league table, with 27 points. Over the championship span, they've triumphed 8 times, drawn three times, and lost seven fixtures. They've scored 21 goals and conceded 19. Over their last five fixtures, they've achieved two victories. In their last round, they managed to defeat Frosinone with a scoreline of (3:1). 

Head-to-Head

In the last 5 fixtures between the clubs, 4 of the matches ended in a draw. In the last direct encounter, which took place on the 21st of May last year, Lazio defeated Udinese, scoring the match's solitary goal.

Prediction

Looking at the bigger picture, I must point out that the visitors haven’t lost on the opponent's turf in over 10 years, and it's unlikely that will change today. While Udinese are certainly capable of putting up a fight, they are unlikely to clinch a victory. I suggest you take a risk and bet on the game ending in a draw.
