Udinese have harvested 25 of their 39 in total here in the safety of their own home. Will they claim the win against Salernitana?

Insights:
  • Salernitana have the most conceded goals (69) in Serie A

These teams have little in common geographically as Salernitana have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
