Player to watch: Florian Thauvin
Udinese have scored four Serie A goals this season, and Florian Thauvin was directly involved in two of them. The former Marseille player has been in sensational form for the visitors with five direct goal involvements (2 goals, 3 assists) in four competitive games this season. He will fancy his chances against Parma.
