Udinese will face a challenging encounter against Torino in this game on Sunday. The home team are ranked in the ninth position of the league table with 23 points to their name and are expected to push for a spot in the upper half in order to compete in European competitions next season.
Their defence has been good this season, which is implied by the goal difference of just -5 that they have. However, they know that this can get better, and nothing would please Udinese and their home supporters more than a clean sheet in this game against Torino’s attackers, who are known for their raffish ways of operating.
Udinese like to play in a 3-5-2 formation in which their midfielders like to feed balls to their lone strikers Lucca and Thauvin, who share eleven goals between them already this season. Their midfielders, led by Karlstrom and Lovric, like to disrupt the passing game of their opponents and operate extremely well inside their box.
Torino will have more than a fair share of knowledge of how irritating Udinese’s midfielders can be, especially in home conditions, and this will force them to operate at their best in this game. Injuries to Perr Schuurs and Duvan Zapata will hamper their chances of winning, but they will back themselves to do the job nonetheless.
Torino too play in a 3-5-2 formation like their opponents, and will be tempted to allow their wingback Sosa to fun freely and create some havoc in the opposition ranks. Sosa has the ability to create chances up front and also run back to defend without losing too much of his balance. His colleague Pedersen too will want to do this.
Strikers Sanabria and Kamaroh have been a tad quiet in this season, but Torino are still ranked in the 12th spot of the league table with 19 points. They will be hopeful of beating Udinese in this game and showcase their advantage over their opponents. For this, however, Udinese will have to be sharp in picking up stray balls.
Bet hereThere have been a total of 25 games recorded between these two teams in the past, out of which Udinese have won just six. Torino, on the other hand, have been victorious on thirteen occasions, with the rest of the matches being played out as drawn encounters. In this game, however, we expect Udinese to win or draw.
Udinese won their previous game 2-1 against Fiorentina, and that is going to give them a lot of confidence. Their attackers will want to torment the beleaguered Torino defenders, but they will not have it as easy as they expect it to be. There will be a lot of resistance from the latter, and we expect a close contest.
Matches between these two teams are usually closely contested, and we expect nothing less this time around as well. Defenders from both teams like to keep a close eye on every ball that falls into their realm, and we can be assured of something similar, with attackers not getting too much of a free hand.
We expect a total of over 1.5 goals to be scored in this game because attacking play gets severely limited whenever these teams play. Moreover, we saw a total of over 1.5 goals being scored on four out of the last five occasions between these two teams in the past, and something similar can be expected here.
