Pisa vs Udinese prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2025-09-13 13:00.
[p]Newly-promoted Pisa will aim to secure their first win of the Serie A season when they take on an unbeaten Udinese side.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Pisa’s first home Serie A match in more than 34 years ended in a narrow 1-0 loss to Roma before the international break, which followed an impressive 1-1 draw against Atalanta to start this league campaign. With champions Napoli and European hopefuls Fiorentina their next two league opponents after this round, it’s truly been a baptism of fire on their top-flight return. Head coach Alberto Gilardino, a striker in his playing days, will hope to see his side find their edge in front of goal ahead of that run, as their three competitive games this term have seen them score just once, and even that was an own goal![/p]
[p]Udinese arguably delivered the result of the Serie A season so far when they came from a goal down to beat regular title challengers Inter Milan 2-1 before the international break, keeping them unbeaten in their first two matches (W1, D1). The Bianconeri started last season by avoiding defeat in their first three league matches, but they’ve never done so in back-to-back campaigns, meaning history stands firmly against them here. Udinese are also looking to post victories in their first two trips of a top-flight campaign for only the second time in the club’s history.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
