UDINE, Italy (March 2, 2026) (Interstat) — Udinese opened its Serie A campaign with a commanding 3-0 victory over Fiorentina at Bluenergy Stadium on Monday.

Defender Christian Kabasele opened the scoring in the 10th minute. Udinese sealed the win in stoppage time when forward Adam Buksa netted the second goal. Forward Keinan Davis added a late third.

The result defied the pregame projection from Interstat, which gave Udinese a 61.6% win probability and forecast a 2-1 scoreline. The match featured eight yellow cards, with five shown to Fiorentina players.

Udinese begins the season with a win, while Fiorentina starts with a loss in domestic competition.
