Genoa beat Udinese in the Serie A Week 31 match on Friday, April 4, 2025, at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium in Genoa, Italy.  Genoa has moved up to a 15-point cushion above the relegation zone, bringing them closer to their goal of survival after a rough start to the season. Meanwhile, Udinese remains stagnant at 40 points and hasn’t secured a win since March 1st.

Genoa’s win was well-earned, as they were the more aggressive team throughout the match. However, there were tense moments at the end, including a disallowed goal by Rui Modesto and Pafundi’s protests over a potential foul in the box. After their loss to Juventus, Genoa is back on track, while Udinese faces their third consecutive defeat.

Fact, Genoa has not lost to Udinese in their last six Serie A encounters, recording two victories and four draws, with their last two matches resulting in wins. The only time Genoa has managed to secure three consecutive victories against Udinese in the league was during a five-match streak from 1993 to 2008.

Genoa gained the advantage in the 77th minute when Alessandro Zanoli found the back of the net with a right-footed shot aimed at the upper center. Ekuban, after receiving a pass from Freundrup, made a run down the left side. His cross was deflected by Okoye, allowing Zanoli to capitalize on the rebound and score.

✅  Stats before the game:

Genoa has managed to keep a clean sheet in four out of their last five Serie A encounters with Udinese, matching the number of times they achieved this in their previous 24 meetings in the league. Udinese enjoyed a streak of six matches without a loss (4 wins, 2 draws) but have recently suffered defeats in their last two Serie A games against Hellas Verona and Inter. Under Kosta Runjaic, they have only experienced three consecutive league losses once, which occurred between October and November 2024.

Out of Udinese’s 11 victories this season, nine have been against teams that had fewer points at the start of the matchday. However, they recently lost to Verona in their latest such match. In the past five seasons, they have only faced back-to-back defeats against lower-ranked teams once, which happened last September against Roma and Inter.

Player Stats

Genoa’s forward Andrea Pinamonti has struggled recently, failing to score or assist in his last five league matches. However, he has found success against Udinese in Serie A, netting four goals against them, with one of those coming in the first leg. His highest tally in the league is five goals against Roma, and he has also scored four times against Bologna.

Udinese’s Oumar Solet celebrated his first Serie A goal in the most recent match. Since his debut on January 4, he has been the defender with the most successful dribbles, totaling 19. Additionally, he is among four defenders in the 2025 season who have recovered over 50 possessions and won more than 50 duels, achieving 56 in both categories, alongside Dodô, Theo Hernández, and today’s opponent Johan Vásquez, who has 60 recoveries and 77 duels won.
