The Serie A returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Udinese take on Stefano Pioli's AC Milan side in an important encounter at the San Siro on Saturday.
AC Milan vs Udinese Preview
Udinese are currently in 17th place in the Serie A standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The away side suffered a damaging 2-1 defeat against Cagliari in the Coppa Italia this week and will need to work hard to bounce back in this match.
AC Milan, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table at the moment and have been in impressive form this season. The Rossoneri were held to a 2-2 draw by Napoli in their previous game and will look to take it up a notch this weekend.
AC Milan vs Udinese Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

AC Milan vs Udinese Prediction
AC Milan have been in excellent form in the Serie A this season and will need to bounce back from their fairly disappointing result against Napoli. Rafael Leao has been excellent for the Rossoneri so far and will look to add to his goal tally this weekend.
Udinese have flattered to deceive so far this season and are in desperate need of a shot in the arm. AC Milan are the better team at the moment and should be able to win this game.
