Udinese vs Venezia Preview

Udinese are flying right now. Four wins from their last five outings, including a thrilling 3-2 victory over Monza in their most recent Serie A fixture, have given Kosta Runjaic's side real momentum heading into this Coppa Italia second round clash at the Dacia Arena. The return of Christian Kabasele from suspension bolsters their defensive options. Runjaic wants a deep cup run this season, and his squad looks well equipped for it.

Venezia find themselves in a very different place. Giovanni Stroppa's newly promoted side have lost both their Serie A openers against Lecce and AC Milan without finding the net once. Their first-round Coppa Italia win over Modena required two late goals, hardly a convincing display. With a crucial league fixture against Frosinone looming on Sunday, Stroppa is expected to rotate heavily here, which could further weaken an already struggling outfit.

Udinese's home win at 1.95 is the primary pick here. The hosts have won four of their last five matches across all competitions, and their Dacia Arena record gives them a clear edge in this northeast derby. Venezia, by contrast, have failed to score in two Serie A outings and coach Giovanni Stroppa is expected to rotate ahead of a vital league fixture against Frosinone.

The under 2.5 goals market at N/A also appeals. Venezia's attacking struggles are well documented: zero goals from their opening two league games. A rotated squad is unlikely to suddenly find firepower against an Udinese side that conceded just twice in their last three wins. Cup ties at this stage often produce cagey, low-scoring affairs.

Both teams to score "No" at 8.75 complements the selection nicely. Venezia scraped past Modena in the first round with two late goals, but that was against lower-league opposition. Udinese represent a significant step up in quality, and with Christian Kabasele back from suspension to bolster the defensive options, keeping a clean sheet looks a realistic outcome for Runjaic's men. Odds correct at time of publication.

Trends to Know about Udinese vs Venezia

• Udinese unbeaten in last five matches
• Venezia scoreless in two Serie A games
• Udinese won both previous home meetings

Both lineups carry a speculated tag, so treat the shape of this Coppa Italia tie with some caution. The projected 3-4-2-1 versus 4-3-3 matchup hints at a compact Udinese block looking to funnel play wide, while Venezia's wider front three could stretch the home back three early.

Rotation is openly expected on the Venezia side, which adds another layer of uncertainty to an already lightly sourced picture. Vakoun Bayo leads the Udinese attack in the speculated XI, and Akor Adams fills the central striker role for the visitors, making that individual duel one of the more intriguing tactical threads to watch.
