Serie A: Genoa vs. Udinese – Confirmed line-ups and updates | OneFootball

The line-ups are in for the first match in the 31st round of Serie A fixtures, as Patrick Vieira’s Genoa host Kosta Runjaic and Udinese at the Luigi Ferraris on Friday night.

Kick-off is due at 19.45 GMT.

It is a battle of 12th vs. 10th in the Serie A standings. Neither team will be able to improve their league position tonight, even with a victory, but Udinese will likely require at least a point if they are to keep hold of their place in the top half of the table by the end of the weekend.
