Inter vs Udinese Preview, Prediction, Betting Tips and Odds

Inter Milan continue their hunt to reclaim the Serie A title, as Cristian Chivu’s side welcome Udinese to the San Siro and you can find our full preview, prediction and betting tips below.

Inter vs Udinese Preview

The Nerazzurri were left with no silverware after the 2024/25 season, which brought Simone Inzaghi’s time in Milan to an end and the Italian moved on to Saudi Arabia.

Cristian Chivu was handed the task of bringing the Scudetto back to the San Siro and his side got off to a flying start on the opening weekend of the campaign.

Braces from Serie A Golden Boot contenders, Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez, alongside an Alessandro Bastoni strike, secured a 5-0 victory at the San Siro.

Picking up such a dominant victory would have put the entirety of Serie A on notice, especially after Inter’s main title contenders, Napoli, picked up a 2-0 win over Sassuolo.

Inter will now go into their second league fixture with huge momentum, as Chivu’s men take on an Udinese side that has began the season without a defeat in competitive competitions so far.

Kosta Runjaic’s side kicked off their cup and league campaigns with a 2-0 win over Serie B side, Carrarese in the Coppa Italia, before playing out a 1-1 draw with Hellas Verona on MD1 of Serie A.

Thomas Kristensen opened the scoring for Udinese with a bullet header, before Suat Serdar equalized 20 minutes later to share the points at the Stadio Friuli.

Udinese come into this match with a huge burden on their shoulders, as the Udine-based side have not won at the San Siro since December 2017.

Inter vs Udinese Prediction

Finding wins against Inter Milan has been a struggle for Udinese in recent years, losing each of their last six meetings in Serie A and failing to win at the San Siro for eight-years.

Last season, the Nerazzurri picked up a league double over Udinese, winning 2-1 at the San Siro and 2-0 away from home, with Marko Arnautovic scoring in both fixtures.

Although the Austrian will not be present for this upcoming clash after leaving as a free agent, we expect Cristian Chivu’s side to pick up a comfortable victory at home.

Prediction: Inter 3-0 Udinese

Inter vs Udinese Betting Tips

Marcus Thuram to Score at Any Time: +110

The French international made an instant impact to his side on the opening day of the season, scoring in the 36th minute and then adding a second after 62 minutes.

Thuram has been a consistent threat for Inter since joining in the 2023 summer window, scoring 13 Serie A goals in his debut season and 14 last year.

With that in mind, we expect the former Borussia Monchengladbach star to find the target once again and Serie A betting sites are offering a +110 price.
