Opposition Analysis: Udinese

Inter returned to Serie A after their Champions League opener by facing Udinese at San Siro on Matchday 4. Udinese, under manager Kosta Runjaić, look to build on their positive start to the season with a 3-3 record against Monza, Cagliari, and Napoli. The Friulani, who have a well-established identity, have been aggressive in attack, often exploiting spaces and starting their attacks from wide areas.

Udinese's key player, Keinan Davis, holds the ball up and draws defenders, allowing others to join in play. The team utilizes a 3-4-2-1 formation, emphasizing physicality, wing-backs' running power, and the strength of their striker. They are strong on set pieces, often scoring from corners, and can use their pace in behind the defense.

Inter, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back from their loss to Real Madrid in the Champions League and respond positively in the league. They will be keen to capitalize on Udinese's vulnerabilities without the ball and maintain their strong start to the season, with three consecutive wins.
