Salernitana host Udinese at the Stadio Arechi in Serie A on Sunday, with the home side needing a win to guarantee their survival in Italy's top flight.

Salernitana are currently 17th in the league, two points off the relegation zone. Davide Nicola's side have been in strong form of late and are unbeaten in their last seven games. They will hope to extend their streak with a win against Udinese on Sunday.

Udinese are 12th in the league with nothing left to play for this season. Gabriele Cioffi's side have been in inconsistent form recently, having lost two of their last five games. They will look to end their season on a high with a win against Salernitana on Sunday.

Both sides will want to win the game for different reasons and that should make for an interesting matchup.
