Inter
Simone Inzaghi's side triumphed over Atalanta away (2-0) in the previous round. This marks Inter's third win in their last four Serie A matches, with their only slip coming in an away draw against Napoli (1-1). Moreover, the team managed to keep a clean sheet for only the second time in eight previous league matches. In the standings, the Milanese have solidified their lead, amassing 64 points and moving three points clear of second-placed Napoli. Notably, with 65 goals scored this Serie A season, Inter boasts the best offensive record.
- The club is unbeaten in their last 11 home matches in Serie A (8 wins, 3 draws).
- The team has scored at least twice in 6 of their last 7 home league matches.
- Both teams have scored in 6 of Inter's last 8 home Serie A matches.
Predicted lineup for Inter (3-5-2)
Josep Martinez – Francesco Acerbi, Alessandro Bastoni, Benjamin Pavard – Carlos Augusto, Hakan Calhanoglu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Nicolo Barella, Denzel Dumfries – Lautaro Martinez, Marcus Thuram.
Defender Denzel Dumfries, midfielder Piotr Zielinski, and forward Lautaro Martinez will miss the game due to injuries. Defender Alessandro Bastoni is suspended.
Udinese
In the previous round, Kosta Runjaic's side lost 0-1 at home to Verona. This defeat ended Udinese's six-match unbeaten streak in the league (4 wins, 2 draws). Additionally, the club failed to score for the first time in their last nine Serie A matches. Nonetheless, their position in the standings remains unchanged, sitting in tenth place with 40 points.

Inter vs. Udinese: Match Prediction
The Milanese are in excellent form and lead the standings, but Simone Inzaghi's side hasn't been flawless in all aspects recently. While Inter has no issues with scoring, they have been making uncharacteristic defensive errors, leading to goals conceded. In their last 12 home league matches, the club has kept a clean sheet only three times, and in their most recent home game, they conceded twice against Monza, who are at the bottom of the table.
Udinese is having a good run, and even away from home, Kosta Runjaic's men often achieve their goals. The team excels in creating chances; in their last ten away Serie A matches, Udinese failed to score only once. During this period, they have found the net against teams like Napoli, Lazio, Fiorentina, and Atalanta.
I expect the visitors to find the back of the net at least once against the Milanese defense. My prediction: Udinese Individual Total Over 0.5
* Each team's lineup is based on their last match in this tournament.
