Milan under Paulo Fonseca are not stable. Despite the victory in the derby over Inter, the team is only in sixth position in the Serie A standings, and in the Champions League after two games they have no points at all.
Udinese have had a great start to the season in Serie A. After seven rounds, the team occupies a place in the top five and is two points ahead of the Rossoneri. Udinese broke a streak of two consecutive defeats last round, defeating Lecce at home.
Milan allow a lot of opponents in their own half of the field. Over the last five matches in various tournaments, Milan have only once played on zero, while Udinese have scored in eight of nine official matches in the 2024/25 season.
