Udinese managed their second win of the season in their last outingt after three straight winless outings (including one friendly match) and following on a tough start to the season which saw them eliminated from the Coppa Italia by Benevento and craw in their league opener against Parma. They face a Lazio side on four straight wins but just one away win in the last five matches. For Lazio, the two opening losses were expected and it is thought the team had not recovered from their loss to Red Bull Salzburg in the latter stages of the Europa League last season as well as the narrow miss on a Champions League slot. While they have registered improvement after a dreadful start, Lazio still haven't gotten it right defensively, with just two clean sheets in the last five Serie A matches but they face a side with just four wins, and eight losses in the last 15 matches, which places the visitors as firm favorites. One point separates the two on the Serie A log with Lazio fifth on nine points and two places lower is Udinese with eight points while the two sides are each on a +2 goal difference. Udinese have scored six goals in the last five Serie A matches while Lazio have seven goals in the same period. Lazio have beaten Udinese in four straight matches while they are eight matches unbeaten against Udinese. This match has produced more and more goals and the head to head run shows Lazio as the dominant side with 27 wins in 49 meetings while Udinese have 12 wins.
