- Kick-off: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
- Venue: Craven Cottage
There's a place up for grabs in the quarter finals of the Coppa Italia as Juventus take on Udinese at Allianz Stadium. There is only a six-point gap between them in the league, so it’s not that wide, but right now they have very different vibes around their camps. Most bookmakers lean toward a home win, which makes sense on paper, although Udinese will take some confidence from their steady 2–0 victory over Parma last weekend.

This will be only the third time since 2013 that these two clubs meet in the Coppa Italia, which already gives the fixture a slightly unfamiliar edge. Juventus cruised through the previous two meetings, scoring four without reply, and their recent competitive encounters have been similarly one sided with a 7–1 aggregate across the last three matches. Udinese know the scale of the task, yet cup nights can occasionally tilt in unexpected ways.
Juventus team overview
Juventus began with three consecutive victories over Parma, Genoa and Inter and for a while prompted thoughts in many minds that the Old Lady might be ready to pursue something loftier this season.
What came next though, was a rather sobering 8 game run in all competitions without a win that dampened the excitement faster than anyone could believe.
Luciano Spalletti’s men have begun to stabilize in the last few weeks thanks to a seven match unbeaten run, with four victories and momentum seems to be building. Dušan Vlahović came off in the first half against Cagliari and is unlikely to feature.
The Old Lady’s absentee list also includes Arkadiusz Milik (hamstring), Carlo Pinsoglio (calf), Bremer (meniscus) and Daniele Rugani (muscular).

Udinese team overview
Udinese had also started the season well, if not prettily, with Inter, Pisa and Verona results that looked like they may have found a little early form.
Le Zebrette lost some momentum by going four matches in a row without a win, but then overtook Lecce toward the end of October to get back on track.
Kosta Runjaić’s side haven’t been at their best ever since, with two wins in five, although the mood lifted slightly after the win over Parma last weekend. Thomas Kristensen is still unavailable with a hamstring complaint (he’s missed the past nine matches), and Hassane Kamara, who has been battling plantar fasciitis since early November, is out again.

Prediction
Juventus look poised for a 2-1 win as they enter this Coppa Italia match on a seven-game unbeaten run, with four victories showing renewed form. Udinese aren’t strong at the back on their travels, keeping a clean sheet in just one of their last five away trips. Juventus’ attacking prowess and Udinese’s defensive weaknesses suggest home win and both teams to score.
Three reasons we expect Juventus to win this game
- Udinese lost each of their last nine visits to the Allianz Stadium.
- Juventus have won seven of their last eight meetings with Udinese.
- Udinese have lost three of their last five away matches.
