Udinese vs Chelsea Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

Udinese vs Chelsea Prediction

Udinese will have home advantage and will look to capitalise on Chelsea's poor form. They have been in solid goal-scoring form throughout the pre-season and will fancy their chances of scoring against the Blues.

Chelsea have struggled thus far but will look to get back to winning ways. Manager Thomas Tuchel is experimenting with his ideal starting XI, so he might use new signings Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly.

With both teams having their eye on their first competitive game of the new season, the chances of a high-intensity game seem low, so a draw could ensue.

Prediction: Udinese 2-2 Chelsea.
