Udinese — Atalanta : Match Preview and Prediction for November 01,2025

The upcoming round kicks off with a clash between Udinese and Atalanta. This match could prove to be a pivotal point in the season for the visitors, as another poor result might jeopardize Ivan Juric’s position at the helm of the team.

Udinese’s Defensive Struggles

Udinese often attempts an attacking style of play, yet this approach severely compromises their defense, which undoubtedly plays into Atalanta’s hands. Currently, Coach Rugnaić’s squad ranks last in terms of goals conceded (15), and their recent 1-3 loss to Juventus clearly illustrated why: they allowed 3.17 xG and 25 shots on goal.

Atalanta’s Quest for Consistency

Atalanta is currently on a streak of five draws. Their primary challenge during this period has been finishing chances. The Bergamo side has kept two clean sheets against opponents and has not conceded more than one goal in any of these matches. Perhaps their 1-1 draw against Milan will be the catalyst for improvement, especially since Lookman finally found the back of the net. The English forward scored his first goal of the season, a much-needed confidence boost.

Final Prediction

Udinese’s porous defense presents a golden opportunity for Atalanta. While the visitors have struggled with conversion lately, it’s hard to imagine them failing to score goals in this encounter. I anticipate that this time, Atalanta will finally secure a full three points.
