class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The 37-time Serie A champions begin the 2021-22 campaign in the north-east corner of Italy and they are good value to record a solid victory
Juventus travel to the Dacia Arena on Sunday to face Udinese on the opening weekend of the Serie A season.
After last season’s highly-disappointing campaign which saw them scrape fourth place on the final day of the season, the Turin giants will be looking to reclaim the title they had won in each of the nine previous years.
Udinese for their part have had some high-profile departures over the summer and may find it difficult to improve on last season’s 14th place.

Udinese vs Juventus preview
It is imperative for Juve that they get off to a winning start and convert some of the disappointing draws from last term on the road into wins.
The 2020-21 campaign saw Juve drop points away to the likes of Crotone, Benevento, Verona and Torino, and Allegri will be looking to regain the side’s winning mentality which saw them grind out wins even without playing to their best.
During the coach’s first spell in charge, the club won five consecutive titles and Allegri knows how to get the best out of his players.
Against an Udinese team weakened by the departures of Rodrigo de Paul and Juan Musso, Juve should be able to get off to a solid winning start.
Udinese vs Juventus tips & predictions
The price of 11/10 (2.10) for the visitors to keep a clean sheet should appeal, while Juve to win and under 3.5 goals looks a strong selection at 23/20 (2.15).
