Team News

Udinese
  • Di Natale's comeback should be the only change from the XI that lost to Juventus last week.
  • Pereyra will make way for the captain, while Muriel will play closer to the midfield.
  • Coach Guidolin talked about his future after the last defeat, stating that he's willing to stay if the club wants him to.
Siena
  • Paolucci may start on the bench this time as Reginaldo and Bogdani are favoured to play up front.
  • Rubin and Del Grosso are in competition to play on the left flank.
  • The defence will be the usual trio of Neto, Contini and Felipe.

Prediction

  • Udinese ended their six-match unbeaten streak by losing heavily to Juventus last time around, but at home they haven't suffered defeat in their last nine matches (the last home defeat was against Juventus).
  • Siena have only collected 5 points in 10 matches away from the Franchi, but their last victory against Sampdoria put an end to a losing streak that lasted for seven matches (includine one in Coppa Italia) and gave them back some hope to reach safety.
  • The hosts will want to make up for the 4-0 loss suffered in Turin and will push from the start, forcing Siena to fall back and defend tight. Udinese's pressure should be enough to ensure a lead in the first half, especially as Di Natale will be leading the attack once again.
