Udinese began the campaign with encouraging results, recording one win and one draw, but their form has since deteriorated.
The Little Zebras have lost their last five Serie A matches, making them the only team in the division currently on such a losing streak.
Their last weekend result ended in a 3-0 home loss to Lecce, adding to their winless streak.
AC Milan have won their last three Serie A away trips to Udinese.
Their recent home performances also offer little encouragement, having won just once in their last nine league matches on home soil, drawing twice and losing six.
Their record in Sunday Serie A fixtures is equally concerning, with six consecutive defeats highlighting the scale of their current struggles.
AC Milan, meanwhile, remain unbeaten in the league this season, with four wins and three draws from their opening seven matches.
However, three successive away league draws have raised questions about their ability to turn promising performances into victories on the road.
Udinese and AC Milan have scored over 2.5 goals in four of their last five Serie A meetings.
Despite their impressive league start, they suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat away to Bournemouth in midweek, serving as a reminder that they cannot afford to become complacent.
Nevertheless, Milan’s strong domestic away record makes them difficult to overlook, having lost just three Serie A away matches since the beginning of last season, alongside 12 wins and 8 draws.
