After 3 straight draws in the Italian Serie A, AS Roma are looking to break the dry streak with a victory over struggling Udinese.

Roma is third in the overall standings and with a total of 43 points there’s not much room for them to move in as whatever the outcome of this leg will be, their position is secured and most likely it’s the one they will end the season in.

They have made the home ground a true fortress with few waisted points as they managed no less than 11 victories and 1 draws in 14 played with a very good goal ratio of 25 scored and 10 conceded, only leaders Inter ranking better.

Udinese is showing small steps of improvement from their disastrous season, only on the 15th spot so far and 7 points over the relegation zone. The team’s only reason for confidence is a fairly good home football as in away games the situation is terrible.

They have yet to win any of the matches played whilst traveling managing only 5 points in 5 draws and losing the rest of 9 with an incredible weak goal ratio of only 8 scored and no less than 21 conceded

My pick:  AS Roma to win

Losing the second position to AS Roma but with a game less than their adversaries, AC Milan will certainly push for the 3 points in this Friday match against struggling Udinese.

No victories for Milan in the last 3 matches played in the Italian Serie A, losing against leaders and bitter rivals Inter and ending in surprising draws Livorno and Bologna, they cannot afford any more mistakes especially since AS Roma, which has 23 matches played, have taken their place with a 2 point advantage.

The team still looks very strong on home ground where the statistic shows 7 victories, 2 draws and 2 matches lost, but are far from their rivals in terms of points gathered with a goal ratio of 23 scored and 13 conceded looking weak in defense.

Now one could have expected such a disastrous season for Udinese, with their good performances in the last edition and run in the European tournaments, the team  sits only on the 15th spot of the table with a margin of joust 2 points from the relegation zone.

A unexpected victory for them in the last leg of the league against a strong Napoli has given them a boost both in morale and in form but especially in terms of their current position. They have yet to win any matches whilst away this season in all 11 played, managing only 4 points in 4 draws and losing the rest of 7 with an awful goal ratio of 6 scored and 15 conceded showing a virtually non existent offensive.

My pick: AC Milan to win
