AC Milan striker Carlos Bacca.

Udinese Calcio (1-3-0, 3 points) will try to go up from the bottom three as they battle middling squad AC Milan (2-2-0, 6 points) in a 2015-2016 Serie A match at the Stadio Friuli in Udine, Italy on Tuesday, September 22.

I Bianconeri suffered a 1-2 loss in the hands of Empoli during their last match at their home stadium last Saturday, via Daily Motion.

Colombian striker Duván Zapata, who is on loan from Napoli, provided the lone goal for Udinese as they went ahead 1-0 at the 19th-minute of the match.

I Azzurri scored two goals in the second half, with the last one right at injury time, to bury Stefano Colantuono's men deeper in the overall standings.

Meanwhile, I Rossoneri escaped a tough challenge from Palermo to come away with a 3-2 win at their Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in San Siro also last Saturday.

Siniša Mihajlović's squad survived a double from the Rosanero's top scorer Oscar Hiljemark as Colombian striker Carlos Bacca equaled him with two of his own while midfielder Giacomo Bonaventura added one for Milan, as reported by SkySports.

Bacca was the hero of the game as he headed a winner from the center of the box to the bottom left corner of Stefano Sorrentino's net for the final count.

Milan is expected to carry over the momentum against lowly Zebrette en route to an easy win.

Prediction: A 2-0 victory for AC Milan. Bacca will score once again and his teammates will follow his lead.

Udinese starting lineup (3-5-2 formation): Karnezis; Wague, Danilo, Piris; Edenilson, Kone, Iturra, Agyemang-Badu, Adnan; Di Natale, Zapata

AC Milan starting lineup (4-3-1-2 formation): Lopez; Abate, Zapata, Romagnoli, De Sciglio; Kucka, Montolivo, Bonaventura; Honda; Adriano, Bacca
