Inter Milan will be hoping to return to winning ways on Saturday evening when they host top-half rivals Udinese in the 23rd round of Serie A. I Nerazzurri couldn’t break the deadlock in the last game of the previous Matchday, wasting numerous chances in a goalless draw to Sampdoria on Monday night at Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferrari. The stalemate has only increased the gap at the top of the standings as leaders Napoli are now as many as 15 points away.

Udinese will travel to Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris winless in three subsequent league games. They are still eighth in the league table with nine points between them and sixth-placed Lazio. Head coach Andrea Sottill can be satisfied with the attacking display his men have put up last weekend, but the defensive line did not respond in the same fashion as Le Zebrette had to settle for a 2-2 draw in the home fixture with Sassuolo last Sunday. We will now take a look at our top betting picks and predictions for this match.
Inter Milan vs Udinese Betting Tips
Simone Inzaghi has a very strong center-back trident of Francesco Acerbi, Milan Skriniar, and Stefan de Vrij. The defensive line has been the better part of Inter’s squad in recent weeks as I Nerazzurri kept three consecutive clean sheets going into this match against Udinese. The fact Inter have faced the likes of Atalanta and AC Milan in the process says enough about their current defensive rhythm.
Although Udinese allowed two goals in the last weekend’s home clash with Sassuolo, we can’t underestimate their defensive prowess either. The visitors actually own a better overall defensive record than Inter Milan having allowed just 25 goals in the inaugural 22 outings this term. None of the three games they have played on the road in 2023 has seen even two or more goals scored.
Nerazzurri conceded only 5 goals in 11 league games at home this term
Inter Milan are particularly tough to break down at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza where they allowed just five goals in eleven matches this season. I Nerazzurri won nine of these eleven outings and it is very hard not to see them as the favorites against pretty much any rival in the domestic league in their own backyard. Knowing that Udinese have been struggling to get results in the last couple of weeks, we are tempted to take Inter Milan to win to nil at the odds of 13/8.
We have seen the 1-0 score in each of Udinese’s last three road games in the league
Three of the previous five games Inter Milan played in Serie A finished with a 1-0 scoreline. We saw the same scenario in each of Udinese’s last three league matches on the road. When you add Inter’s recent offensive struggles to the mix, we don’t have many reasons to expect a goal fest. The hosts may just settle for a narrow victory here and keep the fourth consecutive clean sheet across competitions to further build up confidence ahead of the Champions League R16 tie with Porto in four days. The 1-0 correct score bet is priced up at the 13/2 odds.
