Milan form and stats

Milan have played 12 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-3-3 (wins-draws-losses).

Happy days for Milan in their previous game, a Serie A match away at Roma (placed 5th) that ended with a 2-1 victory. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a Europa League home game that ended 1-1 versus Crvena Zvezda.

Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma did an outstanding job against Roma with seven saves, so vital to securing the victory.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Milan's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played three games, won two matches, drawn one and lost zero.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Milan as they are travelling to their away game against Hellas Verona in the Serie A. That match is four days after this one.

Milan can score goals in their home matches. After 12 league matches they have found the net 24 times. Milan have conceded 18 from these games.

Udinese form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie A travels is 3 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats.

The supporters enjoyed Udinese's previous game versus Fiorentina (placed 15th), a Serie A 1-0 win played at home. A 2-2 draw at Parma's stadium before that.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Udinese when being an outsider away as they are today, we find three matches with the visitors losing two times, drawing zero and winning one game.

After this away game Udinese return home for a Serie A game against Sassuolo. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Udinese have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 12 league away games 16 goals have been scored. Udinese's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 21 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

The two sides played each other earlier this season: Udinese - Milan 1-2. Milan-Udinese H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Milan four wins, Udinese three wins, three draws. four of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
