Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Udinese, 10th position with 26 points and a negative goal difference of -10
Inter, 1st position with 46 points and a positive goal difference of +26
🇮🇹 Mission accomplished. Inter triumphed at the Bluenergy Stadium, defeating Udinese on Saturday, January 17, 2026, during Serie A Week 21 in Udine.
These three vital points boost Chivu's team to 49 points, placing them 6 points ahead of Milan, who are set to play tomorrow at San Siro against Lecce, and 9 points ahead of Napoli, who will face Sassuolo at the 'Maradona'. This marks Udinese's second loss of 2026 under Runjaic, leaving them in 10th place with 26 points.
Inter achieved a significant victory. The match concluded with a 1-0 score, thanks to Lautaro Martinez's goal at the 20-minute mark, marking his eleventh goal of the season.




Udinese triumphed in the first leg of this season's matchup against Inter, breaking a streak of five straight defeats to the Nerazzurri in Serie A. The Bianconeri haven't managed to secure two victories in both legs against their rivals since the 2012/13 season, when Francesco Guidolin was at the helm.
Following a stretch of four home games without finding the net against Inter in Serie A from 2018 to 2021, Udinese has now scored in each of their last four encounters and has yet to achieve five consecutive home games with at least one goal against the Nerazzurri.
In their last nine league outings, Udinese (with 3 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses) has never seen the same result occur twice in succession, with their latest match ending in a draw against Pisa. Additionally, the Bianconeri have netted two goals in their last two games but haven't scored more than once in three straight matches since September-October 2022, when they managed five goals in total.
Udinese has drawn their last two home Serie A fixtures (against Lazio and Pisa), after accumulating the same number of draws in the previous ten matches (3 wins, 5 losses). The Bianconeri have not experienced three consecutive home draws in the league since February-March 2024, when they faced Monza, Cagliari, and Salernitana.
Referee Marco Di Bello from the Brindisi section will oversee the match. He will be supported by Filippo Bercigli from Florence and Andrea Zingarelli from Siena. The Fourth Official for the game will be Ermanno Feliciani from Teramo. The VAR will be Paolo Mazzoleni from Bergamo, while the AVAR will be Federico La Penna from Roma 1.
