Andrea Stramaccioni warns Roma: 'Udinese are no pushovers'

Even though their visit to Roma is a dead rubber for Udinese, coach Andrea Stramaccioni warns that his side will not lie down for Serie A's second-placed side.

Andrea Stramaccioni has warned Roma not to expect an "easy ride" from his Udinese side in tonight's clash at Stadio Olimpico.

Stramaccioni's charges travel to the capital with very little to play for given that Udinese are 13 points clear of the relegation zone with three games remaining.

In contrast, victory for Rudi Garcia's men would see the Giallorossi consolidate their Champions League spot, but the visiting coach has warned that his side will not lie down.

"We had a good week in training and kept the adrenaline pumping, because we don't want to give Roma an easy ride," Stramaccioni told reporters.

"At this moment, the Giallorossi are the toughest opponents because they are highly motivated to get into the Champions League and are fighting it out for position with their strongest rivals.

"The squad was even put into a training retreat, which is rare, so will be even more eager to do well."

The visitors come into the contest on the back of a 4-1 home defeat to Sampdoria.
