AC Milan vs Udinese: Free Predictions & Odds
Serie A table-toppers AC Milan have the home advantage against Udinese on Friday night where anything but a win could see Ibrahimovic and co knocked off the top spot. Udinese are slipping closer and closer to the relegation battle and defeat on Friday could leave them on the same points as Venezia and Cagliari come the conclusion of the weekend's action.
Rafael Leao to Score
Ibrahimovic is set to be out until March and that means more game time for AC Milan's impressive young Portuguese striker, Rafael Leao. Leao has already scored 7-goals in Serie A this season and will go level with Ibrahimovic if he scores against Udinese. The Portuguese international has netted 5-goals in his last nine appearances for AC Milan in all competitions, so you can see why we're backing him to score on Friday.
AC Milan to Win-to-Nil
AC Milan are unbeaten in their last four games against Udinese in Serie A and we're backing the hosts to win and secure a clean sheet at the San Siro on Friday. The hosts have won three of their last four matches in all competitions and have kept clean sheets in their last three home games. Udinese have lost three of their last six matches, all of which were away from home, and the visitors have failed to score in each of their last four away games.

AC Milan looking to extend their lead at the top of the table
AC Milan were expected to secure all 3pts from their trip to bottom side Salernitana at the weekend but that's not how the game panned out. Junior Messias gave AC Milan an early lead but the teams went in level at the break thanks to a goal from Bonazzoli. Salernitana then went in front in the 72nd-minute but AC Milan managed to equalise 5-minutes later through Rebic but couldn't carve out a winning goal.
AC Milan Predicted Lineup – Maignan, Romagnoli, Calabria, Tomori, Hernández, Bennacer, Tonali, Giroud, Leão, Díaz & Messias
Udinese went in front at home to Lazio via a 5th-minute effort from Deulofeu, after good work from Perez who claimed an assist. However, Lazio equalised right on the stroke of halftime and the second half, which was much more cagey, failed to produce any further goals so the scoreline ended 1-1.
Udinese Predicted Lineup – Silvestri, Marí, Becão, Molina, Pérez, Soppy, Arslan, Walace, Makengo, Deulofeu & Beto
