UDI VS JUV MATCH PREVIEW:
Massimiliano Allegri will be heaving a big sigh of relief after his tactics worked at least in the second leg as Juventus beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 at Wembley and booked their place in the quarterfinal of Champions League.
The former AC Milan manager came under serious pressure after Juventus’ performance in the first leg where his teams played right into the visitors’ hands and allowed them drawing the game 2-2 at Juventus Stadium.
But all’s well that ends well, and the Old lady now can focus on their defense of Serie A title. The game against the struggling Udinese gives them the perfect chance to leapfrog the leaders for at least a couple of hours as Napoli will be playing a late match against Inter Milan.
Considering the profile of the opposing teams of both Juventus and Napoli, it’s Naples who are in danger of dropping points. Also, the Old Lady has a game in hand, so the situation is well under their control.
Juventus are on an imperious run, and it will be a big shock if Udinese even manage to earn a draw at Juventus Stadium. The defending Champions are the only side in Serie A to have won all their league games in 2018, 7 out of 7 and are also aiming for their 11th straight win in Serie A.
While Udinese are going in the opposing direction after winning just once in their last eight league games which ended their hopes of grabbing a European place.
