Chievo - Udinese Football prediction

Chievo and Udinese meet at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi in a match of the fifth round of Serie A TIM. In this stadium, the history of direct confrontations is favorable to the visiting team, which has 1 win and 3 draws in the last 4 games. However, the last time they met at this stadium was on 05-01-2018, in a match for Serie A TIM that ended in a draw for (1-1). The goals of the match were scored by I. Radovanović (9 ') for Chievo and N. Tomović (41' Autogolo) for Udinese. In this match the home factor can play an important role, since both teams present significant differences in the results achieved at home and as a visitor.

Analysis of Chievo

After 2 draws and 2 losses, the home team is in 20th place, having won -1 point. In the last match, they drew with Roma away (2-2), after the previous game drew at home in a game against Empoli, by (0-0). This is a team affected by the home factor, stronger when you play in front of your fans, since in the last 30 matches you have 1 win, 2 draws and 12 defeats as a visitor, with 10 goals scored and 35 conceded, against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats at home, with 18 goals scored and 12 conceded. In the last 10 home games, Chievo have won 6, 2 draws and 2 defeats.

In this competition, you have not won for 4 matches. The team have conceded goals to their opponents in 3 of the last 4 games, so they have not shown great defensive solidity, but their attack has scored regularly, since they managed to achieve in 3 of the last 4 games in this competition.

Chievo is a club that has never been able to win Serie A TIM (Italian League), having the title of most important in its history the Serie B (national second division), won once, in 2007/08. Last season, the team finished the national championship in thirteenth position, far from the qualifying zone for European competitions and also far from the relegation zone, while this season has been making a bad start, not winning any of the first four rounds. In the last five games that Chievo played as principal, counting only the national championship, in three of them the team suffered goals of the opponents. I believe that in this match Chievo, playing against a very strong opponent, will again suffer goals, and may even leave with a negative score of this game.

Analysis of Udinese

After 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss, the visiting team is in 11th place, having won 5 points. In the last match, they drew with Torino at home for (1-1), after their previous match had lost out in a match against Fiorentina by (1-0). This is a team that curiously shows more positive results than at home, since in the last 30 games it has recorded 5 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses as a visitor, with a total of 18 goals scored and 23 conceded. Already inside the home, it won 2 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses, with a total of 11 goals scored and 21 conceded. In the last 10 matches played in all competitions, Udinese have won 5, drawn 2 and lost 3. Defensive solidity has not been their strong point, having conceded goals in 3 of the last 4 games but their attack has scored with regularity, since he scored goals in 3 of the last 4 games for this competition.

Udinese is a club that has never been Serie A champion Tim (Italian League), its best campaign was runner-up in the 1954/55 season. The only Udinese titles on the Italian stage are two Serie B titles, the last one won in the 1978/79 season. Last season, 2017/18 Serie A Tim, Udinese finished in the 14th and now in this season 2018/19, Udinese in four matches, managed to score in three, so we can see that Udinese has a good offensive advantage . Chievo have conceded goals in three of their four matches so far this season, adding up all the goals Chievo has conceded so far, adding up to eleven, which is an average of almost three goals conceded per game, so it is quite possible that Udinese score at least one goal.

Betting Tip: 

In this match between Chievo and Udinese, I believe the visiting team can score at least a goal, because Udinese have managed to score goals in three of the four matches so far in the 2018/19 Serie A season, while Chievo has scored eleven goals four first starts so far this season in Serie A Tim.
