Udinese host AS Roma at the Stadio Friuli in Serie A on Sunday, looking to build on their last win.

Le Zebrette overcame Sampdoria 2-1 in their last top-flight match, ending a run of three winless games.

Gabriele Cioffi's side remain in 14th place, with only 29 points from 26 games, and now face another challenge against a side they've lost 15 of their last 17 games to.

Things are looking on the up for Roma once again, who've lost just once in their last nine games and are unbeaten in their last five.

The Giallorossi are coming off the back of three consecutive 1-0 wins, including one in the Europa Conference League on Thursday.

They're also just six points off the Champions League places in the Serie A table at the moment and will be keen to continue their run to boost their top-four hopes.

Udinese vs AS Roma Prediction

Roma haven't been perfect but have managed to scrap their way to a series of narrow wins lately. It's a testament to their ability to get the job done despite not being at their best.

Udinese have a poor record against the club from the capital and their recent form won't inspire confidence either.

Jose Mourinho's side should be able to continue their winning run.

Prediction: Udinese 1-2 AS Roma
