Twente play their last friendly game of the summer against Udinese on Saturday before starting their 2025-26 Eredivisie campaign away to PEC Zwolle on 10 August. The Dutch side are hoping for another strong run in the league after achieving a sixth-place finish in the top flight last time out.
Their narrow 1-0 win over RKC Waalwijk earlier this week added some wind to their sails, as Twente look to wrap up their pre-season preparations on Saturday on a high note.
Meanwhile, Udinese are having a good run in the summer thus far. After starting their pre-season with a lowly 1-1 draw to NK Opatija, Le Zebrette went down 3-1 to Shabab Al-Ahli but recovered to beat Qatar and Strasbourg in their next, signaling a return to form.

Twente vs Udinese Prediction
Udinese are the stronger team on paper, with more experience too. Their last set of results indicates the side are on the up right now, and will give Twente a tough run for their money.
The Dutch outfit may look to choke the Italians defensively on home turf in the hopes of avoiding a loss in their final pre-season game of the summer, but Le Zebrette's menacing vanguard means the Serie A side should be able to put a goal or two past them. We predict a win for Udinese this weekend.
