Udinese v Spurs UEFA Cup Odds

Udinese v Spurs UEFA Cup odds for this Udinese Spurs betting opening UEFA Cup Group match has the Italians as clear favourites against beleaguered Spurs. It is hardly surprising, Spurs have been in woeful form all season and have yet to record a Premier League win. Manager Juande Ramos is under intense pressure from his board of directors, the Spurs fans and the media as he attempts to guide his side out of the mire. It is Spurs worst start to any season in their history and if they do not pull their collective fingers out immediately they will be relegated.

Of course the UEFA Cup is a different competition, Ramos guided his former club, Seville to two successive wins, but whether or not will be given time to do that at White hart lane is currently doubtful.

Udinese however have had noi such problems. They were not expected to challenge for the Serie A title but with six games already gone they are topping the table alongside Lazio and Inter Milan.

They are full of confidence and will know that they have a great chance to beat Spurs here and start their Group campaign in the right way. It is too early to judge if Udinese can go all the way but they are certainly looking like a team that can. They have odds of 40/1 to win the UEFA Cup which are excellent odds for a team that sits on top of the Italian League. Pasquale Marino's team have earned as many points as the Italian champions Inter, but have scored more goals than them and conceding less.

Amazingly, Spurs who are bottom of their League are 16/1 to win the UEFA Cup. Bookmakers sometimes make no sense and punters would do well to take advanatage and at least back the Italians on an each way basis to win the Tournament. Udinese are even money to win this match, while Spurs are at 3/1. The draw is 12/5.
