AS Roma will be looking to build on their impressive 3-0 win against Monza as they take on Udinese in Serie A Matchday 5.
The Giallorossi will be travelling to Udine and will take on the Friulians at the Dacia Arena on Sunday evening.
It has been a mixed start to the season for Roma in terms of performances but they are unbeaten and top of the table having narrowly won against Salernitana and Cremonese before drawing 1-1 with Juventus last weekend.
With Paulo Dybala netting twice against Monza, Jose Mourinho will hope that his attack has clicked into place and there will be more goals to celebrate against Udinese.
Udinese v AS Roma: Predicted Serie A line-ups
Roma are expected to still be without Nicolo Zaniolo after the shoulder injury he sustained recently. Georginio Wijnladum also has a long-term injury. It can’t be fully ruled out that Mourinho will hand a first start to Andrea Belotti but it seems unlikely at this stage.
There is likely to be some natural rotation from the Monza game with the games coming thick and fast, so expect the likes of Leonardo Spinazzola and Chris Smalling to come back into the starting lineup.
Udinese are in good health and have almost a full squad to choose from. They have had a mixed start to the season and will likely set up to try and disrupt the talented Roma attack.
AS Roma (3-4-2-1): Patricio; Ibanez, Smalling, Mancini; Spinazzola, Matic, Cristante, Karsdorp; Dybala, Pellegrini; Abraham
Udinese (3-5-2): Silvestri; Masina, Nuytinck, Becao; Udogie, Lovric, Walace, Makengo, Pereyra; Beto, Deulofeu
