Udinese and Venezia face off at the Bluenergy Stadium in the 23rd round of Serie A, with both teams looking for their first victory of 2025.

Andrea Sottil’s team, coming off a loss to Roma, is aiming to bounce back, while the lagunari, still deep in the relegation battle, cannot afford any more missteps.

For Udinese, the big question is whether Alexis Sanchez will start, as he could be coming off the bench, while Thauvin is not fully fit and may be substituted. Up front, Lucca will likely partner with Beto.
