Juventus vs Udinese Preview

Juve will look to continue their fine start to this year when they host Udinese in this Italian Cup game.

Udinese are also in a great run of form and the visitors would be looking to shock the league leaders and come away with another win here.

Juve showed why they are champions when they went to Rome and beat Roma in the Serie A last time out.  That result coupled with Inter’s failure to beat Atalanta has pushed Juve back to the top of the league table.

Udinese come into this game having won their last three games on the trot.  Those wins came against Cagliari, Lecce, and Sassuolo so they know that Juve are of a different class.

The visitors were at the Allianz Stadium on the 15th of last month and were beaten 3-1 by Juve – that was the last time Udinese lost a competitive game.

Juventus has lost two of their last 10 competitive games  (both losses came against Lazio) and they would want to avoid any sort of upset in this game.

Juve has dominated the recent head-to-head in this fixture with the Old Ladies winning every one of the last five times both sides have met.
