Fixture Analysis
It is a Serie A clash, Regular Season - 11 as Venezia welcome Udinese to Stadio Pierluigi Penzo. Kick-off is set for Sunday 8 November 2026 at 17:30 UTC.
Form Guide
Venezia — All Games: 5W 3D 2L from 10 Serie A outings this season, averaging 1.80 points per game. Last five: W D W L L. Offensively they are averaging 1.70 goals per game, with 1.00 conceded. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Venezia have played only a handful of Serie A games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Venezia's home record at Stadio Pierluigi Penzo: 8W 0D 2L from 10 Serie A appearances (2.40 PPG). They are averaging 2.10 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground. Their home PPG of 2.40 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.80 — Venezia are significantly better at Stadio Pierluigi Penzo than their overall form suggests.
Across all Serie A games this season, Udinese have recorded 4W 3D 3L from 10 outings — 1.50 PPG. Last five: W L L D W. Their scoring rate of 1.40 per game is modest, conceding 0.90 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets. Udinese have played only a handful of Serie A games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Udinese's away record: 5W 2D 3L from 10 road trips in Serie A this season (1.70 PPG). They are averaging 1.90 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support.
There is minimal separation in the form figures — Venezia at 1.80 PPG versus Udinese's 1.50. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.
H2H Record
There is little to separate the sides historically. From 4 previous meetings, Venezia have won 1, Udinese 3, with 0 draws — a balanced ledger that offers no obvious directional steer on its own.
Goals have been a feature of this fixture. The last 4 meetings have averaged 4.0 per game — a rate that gives the Over 2.5 market a solid historical foundation. The most recent clash, on 1 Feb 2025, ended 2–3 with Udinese winning.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 4.0 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.
Trading Patterns
Venezia in-play and half-time data (40 games, 20 at home): they score before half-time in 75% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 73% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 73% of those occasions; they lead at the break 58% of the time; BTTS occurs in 40% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (home games); they keep a clean sheet 40% of the time.
Udinese in-play and half-time data (40 games, 20 at away): they score before half-time in 80% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 91% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 54% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 55% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 55% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Venezia 52% versus Udinese 48%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Venezia 55% | Udinese 45%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Venezia 0.94 xG and Udinese 1.85 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Venezia attack 0.719 / defence 1.233 | Udinese attack 1.218 / defence 1.114. League average goals — home 1.167 / away 1.233. Venezia's attack strength of 0.719 is below the league average — the 0.94 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Udinese have an above-average attack strength of 1.218 — the away xG of 1.85 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 2 Venezia games / 40 Udinese games used (Blended). A blend of current and prior-season data is applied to stabilise estimates early in the campaign.
Result probabilities: Venezia 19% | Draw 22% | Udinese 59%. Fair-value odds: Venezia 5.26 | Draw 4.55 | Udinese 1.69. The model has a clear lean to Udinese (59%) — a 40pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 53% | BTTS probability 51% | Total xG 2.79. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 53%/47% — the total xG of 2.79 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 51% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Udinese are the pick at 59% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 22% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
Poisson projects 2.79 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 53% probability — strong conviction, supported by form averaging 3.0 goals per game and H2H averaging 4.0 goals per meeting.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 51%. Form rates are neutral: Venezia 40% | Udinese 50%.
The Poisson model is drawing on Blended data (2 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.

🧮 Model Insight
Model Mechanics
The model rates Venezia's attack at 0.72x the league average against Udinese's defence at 1.11x — combine the two and it projects 0.94 expected goals for the hosts. The same calculation in reverse, Udinese's attack versus Venezia's defence, projects 1.85 expected goals for the visitors.
The sample (2/40 games) mixes this season and last, since the current campaign is still relatively young.
Scoreline Breakdown
Of every possible scoreline, 1-1 carries the highest individual probability at 12.1% — still a long way from a near-certainty, which says something about how open this one is on paper. Close behind: 0-2 (10.6%), 0-1 (10.0%). Those top three scorelines alone account for 33% of the model's total probability mass — a relatively concentrated, predictable distribution for this fixture.

📈 Form Insight
Where Both Sides Stand
Venezia come into this having played 40 games, going 24W 10D 6L for 2.05 points per game. Their last five reads W-D-W-L-L. It's still early in the season for Venezia, so this record blends in a handful of games from last season too.
On the other side, Udinese sit at 1.35 PPG from 40 outings (15W 9D 16L), a run that reads W-L-L-D-W across their last five. It's still early in the season for Udinese, so this record blends in a handful of games from last season too.
Venezia carry the stronger recent form of the two, 0.70 PPG clear of Udinese — worth weighing alongside whatever the head-to-head and market data say.
Home Ground vs the Road
Venezia's home form reads 17W 0D 3L across 20 games on their own ground, a 2.55 PPG return. That's noticeably better than their 2.05 PPG overall — Venezia are a different proposition at home than their general record suggests.
Away from home, Udinese have taken 1.50 points per game from 20 outings (9W 3D 8L).
Comparing the two in their relevant venue splits, Venezia come out ahead — a more targeted read than the overall PPG figures above, since it strips out games played in the opposite context.
