Udinese have successfully overcome their early-year struggles, securing seven points from a possible nine in their last three Serie A matches.

After a difficult start to the year, which sparked discussions about a potential coaching change, the Friuli Venezia Giulia club has bounced back impressively.

Udinese’s turnaround in form

The revival began with a hard-fought victory over Venezia, followed by a valuable point away at Napoli. Today, Udinese dominated Empoli, securing a convincing 3-0 win and climbing to 10th place in the Serie A standings.

Bijol and Lovrić among Udinese’s best

Julian Ekkelenkamp starred in the latest victory, but Slovenian internationals Jaka Bijol and Sandi Lovrić also played a crucial role in Udinese’s resurgence.

Bijol received a 7.7 rating from Sofascore, while Lovrić earned a 7.4. Local media praised both players, highlighting the defensive partnership of Bijol and Oumar Solet as a key factor in Udinese’s recent success.
