The White and Blacks will take on the Little Zebras on matchday nine of Serie A

Two teams struggling to match expectations will meet in Serie A as both sides will be aiming to get three points. Juventus’s coaching staff and players are under intense scrutiny due to their poor performance in the league so far. Fans and the club management had a lot of expectations from Igor Tudor when he signed the contract extension before this season, but things are not going as planned.

In seven matches in Serie A, they have won three, drawn three and lost once. With 12 points on the table, they are sitting in eighth spot. Their performance in the Champions League also hasn’t been up to the mark, and they will be hopeful to do well in the domestic league. They can’t afford to drop points in this match, as this is the home fixture for them.

Udinese are just behind Juventus in the points table, and will be quite satisfied with the results they have got so far. Even though they dropped some points from winning positions in the last few games, they will be hopeful of getting something positive against Juventus. In eight matches, they have won three, drawn three and lost twice. Even though they will face an inform Juventus side, they will have to be at their best to get a decent result. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

Players to Watch

Jonathan David (Juventus)

David is not your traditional number nine. He’s not the type who dominates in aerial duels or beats defenders with raw explosiveness or flair. Instead, he is a striker who reads the game well, understands space, links up with teammates and draws centre-backs out of position. He’s more of an associative forward than a classic poacher.

This is his first season with the Italian giants and he is still taking time adapting to the new team. In nine matches so far, he has scored one goal. In eight matches so far, he has scored thrice and provided one assist.

Kienan Davis (Udinese)

Davis is a physically robust and very strong player who knows how to position himself in the right areas of the pitch. He is a good example of a poacher who makes life very difficult for defenders. His ability to identify spaces and exploit them independently is what makes him really good. Even though statistically, his profile is not very impressive for a striker but he is still someone who is always a threat to the opposition team.
