AC Milan’s title chase suffered a blow in their draw with Salernitana and as they return home to Udinese, a return to winning ways will be at the top of their plans. Milan go to this game top of the standings with 56 points and Udinese are 16th with 25 points. It hasn’t been all smooth for Milan in recent times but things have worked well for them lately, even Inter Milan’s shock loss at home to Sassuolo. In their last game, Milan were expected to beat bottom side Salernitana with ease, but they were trailing towards the final 15 minutes of the game. It took Ante Rebic’s 77th minute goal to snatch a point in the 2-2 draw. They go into this game as favorites and a five-game unbeaten run should come with the needed confidence. Milan have three wins, three clean sheets in the five matches and have scored two or more goals in three of the five matches. In their last 10 matches they have seven wins.

Udinese are coming from a result they’ll consider positive; a 1-1 draw with sixth placed Lazio. Udinese scored first in the game through Gerard Deulofeu but lost concentration just before the break and Felipe Anderson leveled in the 45th minute. That was the second straight winless outing for Udinese and it left them just four points above the relegation zone. Udinese have struggled for the better part of the season and even going into this game, they’ve failed to score in three of their last five matches. In Serie A, they have one win in five matches and just three clean sheets in the last 10 games. Five times in the last 10 league matches, they’ve conceded two or more goals while away from home in the league, they’ve failed to score in the last three matches. Udinese have two wins in their last 12 away matches in the league.
