This match features two teams living in the basement of the Serie A, Spezia holding 15th place and Udinese lying 14th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Coppa Italia. That game was an away game at Napoli, so at least Spezia are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
