Udinese prepare to clash heads with Napoli in this Serie A game. Everything you can know about the fixture is located here!

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Europa League game only four days ago. That game, against Leicester City, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Napoli.

Napoli have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Napoli form and stats

A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the Serie A, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 12 wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats from 19 matches.

Napoli are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 2-2 draw at Leicester City.
