Udinese will host Genoa at the Dacia Arena on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 Serie A campaign.
The home side have endured a sluggish start to their league campaign and currently find themselves in the drop zone. They were beaten 4-1 by defending champions Napoli in their last game and were already three goals down before Lazar Samardzic scored a late consolation goal.
Udinese sit 18th in the league table with just three points from six games. They will now be looking to shake off their latest results and pick up their first league win of the season this weekend.
Trending
Genoa have had mixed results on their return to the Italian top flight but remain hopeful of survival. They carried out a shock 4-1 hiding of Roma in their last match, with four different players getting on the scoresheet in a clinical performance from the Grifone as they picked up their first victory over I Giallorossi since May 2014.
The visitors sit 11th in the Serie A standings with seven points from six games and will be hopeful of adding to that tally come Sunday.
