Juventus v Udinese

Juventus vs Udinese Preview

Juventus's previously impressive 17-game unbeaten sequence in the Italian top flight came to an abrupt halt following last weekend's 1-0 defeat away from home at Inter Milan which has left Monday night's hosts four points adrift of the league leaders, while Udinese's winless run in Serie A was extended to five games overall after they were held to a 0-0 draw at home by Monza last weekend.

Juventus will now return to their Allianz Arena though for Monday night's clash where the Old Lady will be keen to take advantage of Udinese's poor run of results lately in the domestic top flight and having won eight out of their last 10 home games in the Italian top flight, Juventus will be in confident mood that they can grab an important three points here.

In addition, Juventus also look in good shape to keep a clean sheet as six of these last 10 home games have also seen Massimiliano Allegri's side prevent their opponents from scoring, while the bigger picture shows Juventus have been handed just two defeats out of their last 24 matches overall along with being unbeaten in each of their last 11 home games as well.

Udinese could only muster a point in a 0-0 stalemate at home with Monza last time out in Serie A and having lost three out of their last five winless games in the domestic top flight, the visitors look to have their work cut out when they make their way to the Allianz Arena for Monday night's tussle against Juventus.

It has been a particularly lean campaign so far this season for Udinese as they have managed to achieve just the two wins throughout the whole of this term and had it not been for no fewer than 13 draws within their total of 23 matches played in total so far, the away side may well have found themselves sitting in the relegation zone in the Serie A table.

Rare victories against AC Milan 1-0 away and a resounding 3-0 home win against Bologna have been the only highlights so far for Gabriele Cioffi's side and their cause has not been helped by their poor performances away from home which have yielded just the single win from their previous 16 outings on the road in Serie A.

In addition, Udinese have also failed to score in eight of these last 16 away games which does not bode well for this impending visit to the Allianz Arena against a highly-motivated Juventus outfit.

Juventus v Udinese Verdict

Juventus look to hold the upper hand over Udinese ahead of Monday night's encounter at their Allianz Arena as the hosts have not only won each of the last four meetings but they have also kept clean sheets in each of these four wins as well
