Inter Milan vs Udinese Lineup September 2026 – After suffering their first defeat of the season, reigning Serie A champions Inter Milan will look to continue their perfect start to the domestic competition when Udinese travel to their home ground for the fourth week of the 2026/2027 Serie A season.

The match is scheduled to take place at San Siro on Monday, September 14, 2026, at 20:45 local time.

While Inter had to concede defeat to their opponents in a fiercely contested Champions League match, their visitors also suffered their first defeat of the season last week.

Now, before the match begins, let us take a look at Mansion Sports' prediction for the Inter Milan vs Udinese lineup in September 2026 below.

Condition of Both Teams Ahead of the Match

Inter Milan

Put under pressure due to defensive mistakes, Inter nearly handed Real Madrid a two-goal advantage in their opening Champions League match on Tuesday, and they were never able to recover at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Although Carlos Augusto's late goal made the match tense until the final moments, the Italian giants still had to leave the Spanish capital empty-handed, ending their 100% start to the season.

Cristian Chivu's side must quickly put the result behind them as they still have two domestic matches to play before the international break.

Before travelling to face potential Scudetto contenders Roma, they will look to build on their dramatic 3-2 victory over Napoli last week, when Inter had fallen two goals behind before Lautaro Martinez once again became their saviour by scoring twice.

The Nerazzurri captain scored on either side of Marcus Thuram's equaliser, with the final goal coming in stoppage time.

The result saw them win their first three league matches by an aggregate score of 8-3.

In Serie A throughout the current calendar year, Inter have averaged 2.8 goals per match at San Siro.

In addition, after winning 18 of their last 23 league meetings against Udinese, they have plenty of reasons to feel confident.

Udinese

Udinese did manage to secure a victory in Milan last season, ending a run of seven consecutive away defeats against Inter.

Since the end of last season, the Bianconeri have also won four of their last six away matches, including their first away match of the current season.

Until Monday, Kosta Runjaić and his side had progressed through two cup matches and remained unbeaten in Serie A, but a home defeat to Lazio halted their early momentum.

The hosts initially took the lead through captain Jesper Karlstrom, but conceding two goals in the final 15 minutes proved costly.

After holding impressive Como to a draw and winning at Monza, before progressing to the round of 16 of the Coppa Italia, the Friulani's progress finally came to an end.

Now, Runjaić, who guided Udinese to a 10th-place finish last season, will seek an immediate response from his team and attempt to produce another upset by defeating Inter.

Inter Milan vs Udinese Lineup September 2026

Inter Milan (3-5-2)

Regarding Inter Milan's squad condition, Chivu gave Curtis Jones his first start for Inter in Madrid after the English midfielder made a significant impact against Napoli. Benjamin Pavard and Carlos Augusto also featured.

Carlos Augusto replaced Federico Dimarco, who was absent due to a minor injury, but last season's Serie A MVP is expected to return on Monday night.

However, his fellow wing-back, Djed Spence, remains unavailable after only returning to training on Thursday.

Including the winning goal in Udine last season, Martinez has scored seven league goals against Udinese.

Udinese (3-4-2-1)

Meanwhile, regarding Udinese's squad condition, Keinan Davis provided one assist and scored another goal when playing at San Siro last August.

After providing the assist for Karlstrom's goal against Lazio, Davis is expected to lead the Friulani's attack once again, although he was withdrawn as a precaution.

Runjaić lost Jakub Piotrowski and Oumar Solet to injuries in that defeat, further extending the list of unavailable players.

Nicolo Zaniolo, Matteo Palma, Juan Arizala, and Alessandro Zanoli had already been in the treatment room.

The Inter Milan vs Udinese match will be an opportunity for the hosts to immediately recover after their defeat to Real Madrid, while Udinese arrive with the mission of producing another upset at San Siro.
