Based on last 50 matches in "Italy. Serie A", up to 01/07/2024
To build a prediction for the Udinese - Lazio match, scheduled for 7 January 2024, several key factors could influence the outcome. Udinese have played 50 matches, in which they won 9 of them, drew 23 times and lost 18 matches. Lazio, having played 50 matches, won 27 times, drew 9 matches and lost 14 defeats. In the league, Udinese average 1.1 goals scored per game and 1.4 conceded. Lazio average 1.4 scored and 0.9 conceded. These sides last met on 20 May 2023 at Udinese's ground, where the away side proved stronger.
Lazio take an average of 5 corners per match in Serie A. And Udinese allow their opponents to take an average of 6 corners per game. Plus, in the last 4 games, Lazio took 6+ corners in 6 of their last 8 matches. Udinese play defensively, and Lazio should also beat this total today.
Lazio are in better form and sit higher in the table, but they do not have any particularly outstanding strikers, and Ciro Immobile is injured, while Udinese have Lorenzo Lucca and Roberto Pereyra, who have shown very good play together.
Udinese have looked quite solid in recent matches, but for now they cannot relax with the relegation zone nearby. Obviously, at home the Zebras will do everything they can to fight for points and are unlikely to sit deep in defence, but there probably will not be many goals.
