Before evaluating player picks, confirm the player is starting or expected to start. Always wait for the final official lineup.
Varela isn't asked to build anything. His work starts inside the box, where he turns whatever comes his way towards goal. Udinese will need a centre-back glued to him.

Ekkelenkamp stays high up and takes no part in the build-up from deep: he picks his moment and slips into the box while the defence follows the ball. From there he shoots without a second thought.

Looking back at last season, Monza had won their last two matches, 3-0 over Avellino and 2-0 over Galatasaray, mixed with a draw and a defeat, while Udinese arrived on three straight 1-0 wins, over Padova, Barcelona and Nottingham Forest. In the head to head, the most recent meeting came in May 2025, won 2-1 at home by Monza. The league average, after one round, is 2.40 goals per match. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
