Many have already ended this league in their hearts with Juventus as the crowned champions, which seems indisputable. With 80 points, 1st position on the table, and 6 points above the team in the second position, we can easily conclude that Juventus has taken this one home. However, this match may spring surprises if the Juventus side underestimates Udinese who are struggling with all they've got to escape the relegation zone. Is Juventus going to secure a win against Udinese in their own home cheaply? Well, let's find out using their previous stats.
Head to Head (H2H)
In all of their eight meetings since October 2016, Udinese has not been able to secure as much as a one-goal win against the Juventus side. That is four good years of playing. The Juventus side seems to have outclassed the Udinese side in every possible way. Udinese has, however, managed to secure a draw just once since the last eight games, and that was in March 2017. Will they be able to use the home advantage and Juventus's possible complacency to their favor? We will find out in their match tomorrow.
Winning margins
As stated earlier, Udinese has not recorded a win against Juventus since the past eight meetings, and it doesn't look like they'll be able to achieve that feat in this upcoming match. However, with soccer being soccer and all the unpredictability it promises, we can not outrightly say they'll lose. Juventus has always won Udinese with goal margins from 2 and above. Juventus has consistently shown that they are way above the Udinese side in every possible way.
Previous games records
Looking at all the games they have played since the resumption of the league, Udinese doesn't look like they're prepared for this contest. In their most recent match, they lost against Napoli, that was after they drew their game with Lazio and lost against Sampdoria. They have, however, won 2 games and either drawn or lost the rest.
On the other hand, Juventus hasn't made such a convincing impact since their past four matches. Although they have been able to win five games since the resumption of the league, they have also managed to lose one and draw 2. Even with Juventus's latest drawback, Udinese may not be considered a "so tough" opponent. Juventus won their most recent game against Lazio at the Juventus home ground. That was just after their 2 draws against Sassuolo and Atalanta, and then one loss against AC Milan.
Teams
Without any doubt, the Juventus side outclasses the Udinese side in all ramifications. Juventus's forward is one of the strongest and is made up of some of the highest goal scorers this season. On the other hand, Udinese can only home to play at the back, leaving one man in front of a counter-attack.
Prediction/Verdict
We'll leave this game at 5.0 for Udinese to win, 1.5 for Juventus, and 2.5 for a draw. The scorelines could fall around 0 - 3.
May the better team win.
