Player to watch – Lorenzo Lucca
There aren’t many obvious candidates to break the deadlock in this game but Udinese striker Lorenzo Lucca is as likely as anyone. He has scored six times in 26 appearances in Serie A this term and is his team’s top scorer.
A threat in the air and on the ground
Lucca’s six goals have included two headers and he’s one of the tallest strikers in European football today. The other four were all with his right foot though and the 23 year old will be hoping for better service here than he’s had in recent games.
