Stat Attack: 10 facts to know about Udinese v Roma


No draws

Roma and Udinese haven’t drawn in Serie A since March 2013. Since then, the Giallorossi have beaten Udinese 11 times and lost just once.

Solid defence

Udinese have scored just two goals in their last six home games in Serie A against Roma, losing five and winning one of those matches.

Five-goal Zaniolo

Nicolo Zaniolo has scored five goals in the last two Serie A seasons – that’s more than any other player in the league born after 1 January 1998.

Four of the best from Edin

Roma’s current top scorer against Udinese is Edin Dzeko, who has scored four goals against them. Three of those goals have come at the Stadio Olimpico and only one on the road. Since January 2017, the Roma No.9 has played away at Udinese three times in Serie A without scoring: Dzeko hasn’t gone so many games without scoring at least once away at any other team.

Bruising defeat on Sunday

Udinese conceded seven goals in their last league game against Atalanta: one more than they had conceded in their previous eight Serie A matches put together (6).

Stronger starters

Udinese and Roma (and Brescia) are the joint-lowest scorers in the last 30 minutes of games in the first nine weeks of Serie A (1).

Record favours Roma

Roma and Udinese have faced off 96 times in all competitions across both home and away matches. The Giallorossi’s record reads 49 wins, 25 draws and 22 defeats, with Roma scoring 173 goals and conceding 106.

Good omens in Udine

In 45 league games at Udinese, Roma have won 19, drawn 11 and lost 15, scoring 61 goals and conceding 51 in the process.

All-time top scorers against Udinese

Francesco Totti leads the way with 16, ahead of two other legendary Roma forwards: Pedro Manfredini on 11 and Roberto Pruzzo on eight.

October meetings

Roma and Udinese have faced off 11 times in October, with the Giallorossi winning five, drawing two and losing four. The last time the two sides played in this month was back in 1998, with Roma winning 4-0 in what was Francesco Totti’s first game as official club captain.
