Roma

The last game of the season proved to be the last straw for the Roma management. The Giallorossi played away to Genoa, leading at the break but missing out on victory in the end — 1:1. Daniele De Rossi was sent into retirement after that game. Since the start of the season, the Romans have failed to beat Cagliari and Juventus both 0:0 and lost at home to Empoli 2:1.

Udinese

If Roma has been the biggest disappointment of the early season in Italy, Udinese has been the biggest revelation. The team, taken over by German specialist Kosta Runjaic in the off-season, has not lost a single game in the first four rounds, winning three.

Udinese also enters the game on a three-game winning streak. After a 1:1 draw with Bologna in the first round, Udinese beat Lazio 2:1, Como 2:1, and Parma 3:2.

Expert Betting Tips

The appointment of Ivan Juric is a strange move by Roma's management. Now, the team will transform from an attacking to a defensive style, and it seems this season is over. As for the upcoming match, Udinese appears to be almost a favorite, but the Zebrette, according to the advanced metrics, are noticeably underdogs in the opening rounds, and we won't bet on them here. Let's bet on goals, that is, the goals against average. Ivan Juric is likely to play in defense in the first game, and Udinese, let's repeat, have conceded far more than they have scored in the first rounds.
