Player to watch: Riccardo Orsolini
With 12 goals in Serie A this season, Orsolini has been the top scorer for Bologna in the league and he's also added three assists in the process to bring his total goal contribution to 15, most in the team.
The Italian forward has been particularly efficient lately, with five goals in the last seven matches in the league, so Udinese will have to keep a close eye on Orsolini on Monday.
