Juventus vs Udinese Prediction: The home side to advance to the next round

Juventus vs Udinese: Prediction for the Match on December 2, 2025

Juventus will host Udinese in the Round of 16 of the 2025-26 Coppa Italia at Allianz Stadium. After two straight wins, Juventus aims for a third win in a row across three competitions. They’re focused on continuing their strong form and reaching the cup quarter-finals.

Juventus: Form and Statistics

Juventus has had mixed league results but remains a strong team under coach Luciano Spalletti. They recently secured a 2-1 comeback win over Cagliari on November 29, with Kenan Yıldız scoring the winner after a tough start. While Juventus sits just outside the top positions, they are still in reach of the leaders. They will treat this cup match as another chance to build momentum. Dušan Vlahović leads their attack, but his thigh injury leaves him unavailable, forcing Spalletti to adjust the frontline. Left-back Juan David Cabal is part of the squad and adds balance on the left. Juventus has a mix of attacking talent and squad depth, allowing them to rotate across Serie A, Coppa Italia, and European matches. Despite falling behind early in their last match, Juventus responded well. Yıldız scored an equalizer and then secured the win with a second goal before halftime. Juventus still trails Italy’s top six, but confidence may be growing as the year ends. Despite underperforming and two managerial changes, they are aiming for a 16th Coppa Italia win. Spalletti, who had success at Udinese, will focus on the task ahead when they face off on Tuesday.

🔖 Juventus Expected Lineup

GK: Mattia Perin

DF: Pierre Kalulu, Andrea Cambiaso, Federico Gatti

MF: Manuel Locatelli, Weston McKennie, Filip Kostić, Khephren Thuram

FW: Kenan Yıldız, Dušan Vlahović, Jonathan David

Udinese: Form and Statistics

Udinese has scored just twice in their last eight meetings with Juventus, suffering seven defeats in that time. While Juventus enters the cup at the last-16 stage, Udinese has fought through two rounds. They beat Carrarese in their season opener and then knocked out Serie B side Palermo in September with goals from Nicolo Zaniolo and Lennon Miller. Zaniolo scored again over the weekend as Udinese won 2-0 against Parma at Stadio Tardini. Keinan Davis also converted a penalty. In an odd turn, coach Kosta Runjaic was sent off while leading 2-0 against 10-man Parma. Despite this, Udinese held on to the win, staying in Serie A's top half. Ending a 240-minute goal drought and keeping a rare clean sheet will boost their confidence ahead of their trip to Turin.

Udinese News and Lineup

Udinese will be without Thomas Kristensen due to injury. Hassane Kamara may also miss the match because of fitness issues.

🔖 Udinese Expected Lineup

GK: Maduka Okoye

DF: Oumar Solet, Christian Kabasele, Nicolo Bertola

MF: Hassane Kamara, Jesper Karlstrom, Jurgen Ekkelenkamp, Arthur Atta, Jordan Zemura

FW: Nicolo Zaniolo, Adam Buksa
