Udinese host Genoa at the Stadio Friuli in Serie A on Sunday, with both sides having disappointing seasons so far.
Udinese are currently 15th in the league, five points above the relegation zone. Luca Gotti's side have been inconsistent of late, having only won one of their last five league games. They will look to get back on track with a win against Genoa.
Genoa, on the other hand, are 18th in the league. Andriy Shevchenko's side have been woeful this season and have only managed to win one league game so far. They will look to kickstart their campaign with a win against Udinese on Sunday.
Both sides are aiming to climb up the table with a win and that should make for an interesting matchup.
