I'm backing Over 2.5 goals in this one. Udinese at home against Milan on 25 October 2026 at 22:45 has the shape of a high-scoring game, and I see the odds at 1.93 as value. Udinese's defence is porous—they're conceding 1.80 goals per game across their last ten matches and rank second-worst in Serie A for defensive xG allowed at 2.2 per outing. Their last home game ended 0-3 to Lecce. Milan, meanwhile, score 1.80 per game in their last ten and have netted at least two goals in all seven Serie A matches this season. I'm not relying on Udinese to score heavily, but Milan's firepower combined with Udinese's leaky backline makes three goals a realistic target.
Form and H2H
Milan arrive unbeaten in the league after seven matches with 15 points and sit fourth. I see them as clear favourites at 1.7 to win. Udinese have lost three of their last four—defeats to Crotone (0-1), Torino (1-2), and that heavy home loss to Lecce. Their form reads W3/D2/L5 over ten games with an average of 1.30 goals for and 1.80 against. Milan's record is W5/D3/L2 in their last ten, averaging 1.80 goals for and 1.20 against. I'm not expecting Udinese to trouble Milan's defence much, but I don't need them to—Milan's attack is enough to push this over the line.
Best bet
I'm taking Over 2.5 at 1.93 with 1xBet. The logic is straightforward: Milan score in every second half this season and average two goals per game. Udinese concede nearly two per match and have shipped three at home already. I don't need a Udinese goal to land this—Milan's output alone gets me close, and their opponents' weakness in defence makes the third goal a reasonable expectation. The price is fair, and the underlying data supports it.
Odds to watch
I'm also monitoring Both Teams Score at 1.83 yes with 1xBet, though I prefer the Over. If I'm wrong about Udinese's attacking threat and Milan dominate without conceding, that bet loses. Milan's Asian Handicap at -0.25 (away 1.41) is tempting if I want to back them with a safety net, but I'd rather stay with the goals market. The 1X2 shows Milan at 1.7, draw at 4.17, and Udinese at 5.35—Milan are the clear pick, but I'm focused on total goals rather than the match result.
