Udinese form and stats

There's been little loot from Udinese's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 14 away games in the Serie A. Udinese only have 2 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 3 draws.

Udinese might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Atalanta proved too strong as Udinese slumped to a 2-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Dacia Arena. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Torino wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Udinese goalkeeper Juan Musso had a great day against Atalanta, but despite making nine saves the loss could not be avoided.

A new game in only three days for Udinese, the Serie A home match versus Genoa. Busy days.

The visitors have scored 11 goals from 14 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Udinese have conceded 26 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

The dueling parties have met before this season: Udinese - Roma 0-4. Last ten meetings between the teams: Roma won nine, Udinese won one and zero draws. six games with over 2,5 goals, four matches with two goals or less.
