Match Prediction: Udinese vs. Atalanta
I expect a high-scoring game from this matchup. Udinese has been effective in attack at home recently, regularly finding the back of the net. In their last six home Serie A matches, the team failed to score only once, against AC Milan, who are defensively solid this season. However, they have not kept a clean sheet in this period.
Atalanta also favors attacking football and does not struggle to score even on the road. In their last 12 away league matches, the team only failed to score once and scored at least twice on seven occasions. On the other hand, they have kept just one clean sheet in their last five away games, conceding goals even against Parma, Genoa, and Cremonese.
I anticipate both teams will score in this match, and my prediction: Both teams to score – yes
