Three Punchy Stats

- Venezia have scored zero goals and collected zero points from their first two Serie A fixtures, despite scoring three times against Modena in the cup.
- Venezia have conceded three goals on each of their last two visits to Udine, while Udinese lead the recent four-match head-to-head record by three wins to one.
Scoring Consistency
Recent attacking records for Udinese and Venezia are shown below.
Defensive Stability
Recent defensive records for Udinese and Venezia are shown below.
Kosta Runjaic’s side are unbeaten in three matches across all competitions, have progressed in the Coppa Italia and followed a league draw with Como by beating Monza 3-2 away. Venezia also negotiated the cup’s opening round, but successive Serie A defeats have left Giovanni Stroppa’s team without either a point or a league goal.
That contrast gives the tie its clearest shape. Udinese have found different routes to results; Venezia have yet to show that their cup attacking output can translate into the league.
Udinese have spread the attacking burden
The 1-0 first-round win over Padova was decided by Keinan Davis before half-time, but Udinese’s victory at Monza offered a broader picture of their attacking options. Jakub Piotrowski, Hassane Kamara and Jurgen Ekkelenkamp scored in the 3-2 win, while Runjaic’s side held 57% possession and registered five shots on target.
That distribution matters with Nicolo Zaniolo unavailable alongside Matteo Palma, Alessandro Zanoli and Giorgi Chakvetadze. Davis, last season’s top scorer, has started against Padova and Monza, while Idrissa Gueye was used against Como and Vakoun Bayo provides another option.
Christian Kabasele’s return from suspension also strengthens Runjaic’s choices as Udinese attempt to preserve an unbeaten start that currently reads two wins and a draw.
Venezia’s cup attack has not carried into Serie A
Venezia’s opening-round performance is the obvious counterpoint to their league struggles. John Yeboah and Akor Adams both scored as Modena were beaten 3-2, although two late goals were required to secure that victory.
Since then, the newly promoted side have lost at home to Lecce and 2-0 away to AC Milan. They held Milan out for almost 70 minutes, but finished the game having recorded 42% possession and only two shots on goal.
The concern is therefore less about one isolated defeat than the absence of attacking return across two league matches. Yeboah and Adams have already demonstrated that Venezia can find goals in this competition, yet neither has scored in Serie A.
Stroppa may also rotate before Sunday’s league meeting with Frosinone. Marin Sverko and Andrea Adorante are unavailable, while Thierry Correia and Matias Moreno are doubts, potentially reducing Venezia’s options further.
Recent history gives Venezia another problem to solve
Udinese lead the recent head-to-head record 3-1 and won the latest meeting 3-2 at home. More strikingly, Venezia have lost both of their previous trips to Udine while conceding three goals on each occasion.
Historical results cannot decide Wednesday’s contest, but they reinforce the current contrast. Udinese have scored four goals across their first two Serie A matches this season, whereas Venezia have scored none.
The visitors have at least shown they can remain competitive for long periods, as their resistance at San Siro demonstrated. Turning that organisation into enough attacking threat is the harder part.
Rotation could change the complexion
Both possible line-ups point towards changes. Udinese could bring Kabasele back into defence and use Gueye in attack, while Venezia may alter personnel around Yeboah as Stroppa balances cup progress against the approaching league fixture.
That makes efficiency especially relevant. Udinese needed only one goal to eliminate Padova and converted three times at Monza. Venezia produced three against Modena but have subsequently drawn blanks twice.

🎯 Pick 1: Udinese to win and both teams to score @ 10/3
Udinese enter this fixture on a three-match unbeaten run across all competitions, having demonstrated varied attacking routes in a 3-2 victory over Monza and a 1-0 win against Padova. Kosta Runjaic’s side generated five shots on target and controlled 57% possession at Monza, demonstrating their capacity to create opportunities even with Nicolo Zaniolo, Matteo Palma, Alessandro Zanoli, and Giorgi Chakvetadze unavailable. With Christian Kabasele returning to strengthen defensive options, the hosts hold an established platform at home.
Venezia present a dual narrative that makes a home victory with goals on both sides realistic. Giovanni Stroppa’s side lost 2-0 at AC Milan while managing 42% possession and two shots on target, and they have drawn blanks in both Serie A matches so far. However, their 3-2 cup victory over Modena showed that attackers John Yeboah and Akor Adams can deliver goals in knockout environments. Venezia have conceded three goals on each of their last two visits to Udine, yet their competitive display at San Siro suggests they can stay involved before Udinese’s broader attacking options take hold.
The principal risk rests on Venezia’s scoreless league sequence, as another blank would defeat the selection even if Udinese win comfortably. Additionally, possible line-up changes with Stroppa balancing the upcoming fixture against Frosinone could alter attacking cohesion. Nevertheless, given Udinese’s recent four-goal Serie A total and Venezia’s proven cup scoring ability, pairing a home victory with goals for both teams remains a defensible stance.
🎯 Tactical Indicators
- Udinese remain unbeaten across three competitive fixtures, scoring three goals in their recent away victory at Monza.
- Venezia scored three goals in their cup win against Modena but failed to score in two subsequent Serie A matches.
- Venezia have conceded three goals on each of their last two visits to Udine.
Risk Factor: A clean-sheet victory for Udinese or a goalless performance from Venezia invalidates the combined market regardless of the final winner.
Key Tactical Mismatch
Scored through three different players against Monza, averaging two goals per Serie A match standard.
Conceded three goals on each of their last two trips to Udine, alongside zero points in current league play.
⚔️ Pick 2: Udinese vs Venezia 2-1 @ 15/2
Supporting a 2-1 scoreline requires establishing why Udinese can score at least twice while limiting Venezia to a single response. Udinese scored three times in their recent 3-2 victory against Monza and have recorded four goals across two Serie A fixtures this season. Jakub Piotrowski, Hassane Kamara, and Jurgen Ekkelenkamp all featured on the scoresheet at Monza, proving that Runjaic’s team can generate goals from midfield and wide positions even with several attacking absences. Furthermore, Venezia have conceded three goals on each of their last two trips to Udine, establishing historical precedent for home goals.
On the other side of the scoreline, Venezia’s search for a first Serie A goal is counterbalanced by their cup output. Giovanni Stroppa’s team produced three goals against Modena through John Yeboah and Akor Adams, demonstrating that their attacking pairing can convert chances in elimination fixtures. While Venezia managed only two shots on target against AC Milan, Udinese conceded twice against Monza, showing that the hosts remain open to conceding even when controlling matches.
The main danger to a 2-1 outcome is a wider goal margin or a defensive clean sheet. Venezia’s failure to score in two Serie A fixtures means a 2-0 home win is a strong alternative, while another high-scoring match like their recent 3-2 head-to-head meeting would breach the two-goal ceiling. Nevertheless, a 2-1 result reflects Udinese’s superior form alongside Venezia’s potential to find a breakthrough in cup competition.
Risk Factor: An extra goal from either team or a failure by Venezia to score defeats the exact 2-1 prediction.
