Preview: Udinese vs. Juventus

Sports Mole previews leaders Juventus's trip to play Udinese in Serie A.

Serie A leaders Juventus travel to Udinese on Sunday looking to extend their unbeaten record in the league to 12 games.

The Vecchia Signora have won 27 points during the same period to heap the pressure on nearest challengers Roma, and with their rivals slipping up in recent weeks, the gap at the top now stands at seven points.

Boss Massimiliano Allegri made eight changes for the midweek win over Parma in the Coppa Italia, but he is expected to revert back to the team that registered a comfortable success over Chievo last weekend.

Striker Alvaro Morata should keep his place ahead of Fernando Llorente after netting the winner in the cup on Wednesday.

Udinese host the form side in the league having recorded their first victory in seven games in all competitions last weekend.

The 2-1 success away at Empoli was a welcome boost to a club who have struggled to put points or clean sheets together since the end of October, with that run seeing them drop down to ninth in the standings.

Midfielder Panagiotis Kone is suspended for the contest after being sent off last week, so Bruno Fernandes could earn a start in his place.

Udinese:

Form in Serie A: LWLDDW
Form in all competitions: DLDDLW

Possible starting lineup: Karnezis, Pasquale, Danilo, Heurtaux, Piris, Widmer, Fernandes, Guilherme, Allan, Di Natale, Thereau

Juventus:

Form in Serie A: DWDWWW
Form in all competitions: DWWWWW

Possible starting lineup: Buffon, Evra, Bonucci, Chiellini, Caceres, Vidal, Marchisio, Pereyra, Pogba, Tevez, Alvaro Morata

Sports Mole says: 1-3
