Udinese is currently on a four-game unbeaten run after winning two and drawing two games in the last four rounds. The team is now at the 13th spot of the Italian top flight table, tied on points with Chievo and Sampdoria and eight points above the bottom three relegation area.

Head coach Luigi Delneri's squad is coming off a 1-1 draw with middling team Genoa on the road at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium on Nov. 6, as per ESPN.

French striker Cyril Thereau opened the scoring for Udinese in the 11th minute with a right-footed shot from the center of the box to the top right corner of Genoa keeper Mattia Perin's net. The assist came from Swiss midfielder Silvan Widmer.

However, the score was immediately leveled by the hosts in the 24th minute with a header from Argentine forward Lucas Ocampos off a cross by Brazilian teammate Edenilson.

Both sides went scoreless from then on as they settled for the draw and a share of a point in the overall standings.

Meanwhile, Napoli has been reeling as of late with four winless games in their last six matches. The team is settled at the sixth spot of the league table at the moment, one point behind fifth-running team Atalanta and nine points adrift of defending champions and current league leaders Juventus.

Napoli was held to a 1-1 draw by fellow contenders Lazio at their home ground of San Paolo Stadium during their most recent game on Nov. 5, USA Today reported.

After a goalless first half of action, Napoli team captain Marek Hamsik was able to break the deadlock seven minutes into the second half with a left-footed shot from the left side of the box off an assist by Algerian defender Faouzi Ghoulam.

However, the one-point lead was short-lived as Lazio quickly equalized just two minutes later with a right-footer from Senegalese forward Keita from a pass by Italian midfielder Marco Parolo.
