Using a 4-3-3 formation, they will aim to exploit Udinese’s backline, especially through the wings with Mattia Zaccagni and Gustav Isaksen. Udinese, on the other hand, will likely focus on a compact defense and look to strike on the counter, using Nicolò Zaniolo’s pace and Lennon Miller’s creativity in midfield.
