Torino vs Udinese prediction: expert analysis, possible lineups, October 12, 2026
On October 12, 2026, Torino and Udinese will face each other in the sixth round of Italy's Serie A. Both teams will be hoping to give their fans something to celebrate.
Torino vs Udinese: team news and expert analysis
The Turin club finished last season in 12th place on goal difference, earning 45 points. Their current campaign has got off to a poor start: they have already been eliminated from the cup by their second opponent, Monza, while in the league they initially suffered defeat after defeat. Only in their most recent away games did they manage to beat a struggling Fiorentina and draw with Bologna.
The team from Friuli ended the spring in the top 10 with 50 points. They made a promising start after the break, recording cup victories over Padova and Venezia and collecting four points from their first two league matches. Since then, however, they have lost every Serie A game, including a 0-1 home defeat to Cagliari just before the international break.
Abate's side are currently conceding significantly more than they score: 1.6 goals per match compared with just one scored. The visitors' football is far more entertaining: they average 1.6 goals scored, but also concede 2.2 per game.
