Lazio take on Udinese this week

The Serie A returns to the fold with another set of matches this week as Lazio lock horns with Udinese on Thursday. Both teams have been inconsistent this season and will want to win this game.

Udinese are in 14th place in the Serie A standings and have not been at their best this season. The away side played out a 0-0 stalemate against Genoa last week and will need to step up in this match.

Lazio, on the other hand, have suffered a slump this month and are in eighth place in the league table at the moment. The Biancocelesti crashed to a 4-0 defeat against Napoli in their previous game and cannot afford another debacle on Thursday.

Udinese can pack a punch on their day but will find it difficult against a formidable opponent. Lazio are the better team at the moment and should be able to win this game.
