Serie A 2024-2025: Udinese-Torino, the likely lineups

Udinese-Torino, probable formations

Udinese arrives at the’last fixture of 2024 with morale high, buoyed by the comeback victory on the field of Fiorentina that revived the European ambitions of Runjaic’s team. Quite a different situation for Torino: after an excellent start to the season, the granata have lost their flair and are coming off a home defeat against Bologna in the last round. Records between the two teams in Serie A tell of great balance: in 78 challenges, Torino has won 29 times, Udinese 26, while there are 23 draws.

Good news for Runjaic, who recovers Bijol in the center of defense after his absence against Fiorentina. Next to him will be Kristensen and Touré. In the midfield, space is given to Lovric and Ekkelenkamp, with Karlstrom in the box. In attack, the Lucca-Thauvin tandem is confirmed.

Vanoli will be able to count on Coco’s return after disqualification, but is unlikely to risk Walukiewicz, back from respiratory problems suffered against Bologna. In his place there is a runoff between Vojvoda and Maripan. In attack Che Adams could start alongside Sanabria, with Milinkovic-Savic between the posts.

Probable Udinese formation (3-5-2): Sava, Kristensen, Bijol, Touré, Ehizibue, Lovric, Karlstrom, Ekkelenkamp, Zemura, Lucca, Thauvin. All. Runjaic.

Probable Torino formation (3-5-2): Milinkovic-Savic, Vojvoda, Coco, Masina, Pedersen, Gineitis, Linetty, Ricci, Sosa, Adams, Sanabria. All. Vanoli.
