Will Fiorentina secure their first three points of the season?

AC Florence is barely recognizable this season, picking up just six points from their first 15 games. This puts Paolo Vanoli’s team in last place in Italy’s top flight and puts them at serious risk of relegation. In fact, the home side are already eight points adrift of safety.

Things are even worse for “I Viola,” as the home side have yet to win a single league game. There is one small consolation for the home fans, however, as the Italians qualified for the intermediate round by finishing 15th in the Conference League league phase. But that alone is not enough to recommend a Fiorentina vs. Udinese tip for a home win.

However, the situation of “I Viola” is difficult to comprehend, as the club narrowly missed out on qualifying for the Europa League last season. This was not surprising, however, as with a market value of €285.35 million, the hosts are ranked seventh in the league for good reason.

By comparison, their upcoming opponents from northern Italy are only in 13th place with a squad value of €152.35 million. We can therefore expect much more from a team that is ranked 22nd in the UEFA rankings. This will also be one of the reasons why the odds for a Fiorentina vs. Udinese prediction favor a home win, despite the current poor situation.

We want to take a closer look at this question when examining the Fiorentina vs. Udinese odds. We also want to look at the home and away records of the two teams. However, the facts and the bookmakers’ betting odds contradict each other quite clearly here. At home, Florence has only managed to pick up two points, losing five of its seven league home games.

Even if we add the three home wins from the Conference League against Dynamo Kiev, Olomouc, and Polissya, we cannot say that this is a strong home team. The visitors have the edge here, as Kosta Runjaic’s team has performed quite well away from home, picking up ten points in seven away games.

Fiorentina – Udinese Head-to-head record

We don’t think so, because the home side not only have a much better squad than the visitors, but also have the upper hand in the head-to-head record. Paolo Vanoli’s team has won 53 of 108 matches and has only lost 26 times. In the recent past, it has been even more clear-cut, with the visitors usually going home empty-handed with 13 points from their last five encounters.

So, when we add up all the pros and cons, apart from their current form and solid away record, there is no reason to bet on the visiting team. The Fiorentina vs. Udinese betting odds for an away win are therefore quite rightly set higher.

Fiorentina – Udinese Tip

Taking all the facts into account, we have decided on a “draw-no-bet win” for the home team in our Fiorentina vs. Udinese betting tip. Every streak comes to an end, and we believe that will be the case this weekend. Florence has so much quality that relegation is absolutely unthinkable.

Players such as Edin Dzeko, Mois Kean, and Albert Gudmundsson will take the reins over the course of the season and help the team get back on track. Now would be the perfect time, as one of AC’s favorite opponents is visiting their home stadium on matchday 16. With 13 points from the last five games, we think another point is very realistic.

However, we can also understand if some of you don’t dare to bet on a win. For this reason, we would like to present you with an alternative. In our opinion, the Fiorentina vs. Udinese odds for “both teams to score – yes” offer good value. This bet would have paid off in the last three encounters between these two clubs. On average, there were even four goals scored in these three games.
