Preview: Udinese vs. Roma

Sports Mole previews Roma's trip to Udinese in Serie A.

Roma return to action from the winter break on Tuesday when they make the trip to Udinese in Serie A.

Rudi Garcia's side are unbeaten in their last six league matches, leaving them just three points behind leaders Juventus in the table.

The Giallorossi's last outing came back on December 20 when they were held to a goalless draw at home to AC Milan.

Meanwhile, Udinese are in need of a victory to keep alive their hopes of qualifying for Europe next season.

The Bianconeri, who are languishing in ninth position in the standings, have failed to win their previous two games in the league.

Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa, Francesco Totti and Mattia Destro are all available for Roma following injury concerns, but forward Gervinho is unavailable due to Africa Cup of Nations duty with the Ivory Coast.

Udinese have no fresh fitness problems heading into the match, though Thomas Heurtaux will miss out through suspension after seeing red during the team's 2-2 draw with Sampdoria.

Udinese:

Form in Serie A: DDLWLD
Form in all competitions: DLWWLD

Possible starting lineup: Karnezis; Gabriel Silva, Danilo, Wague; Widmer, Bruno Fernandes, Guilherme, Kone, Pasquale; Thereau, Geijo

Roma:

Form in Serie A: DWDLWD
Form in all competitions: WWWDWD

Possible starting lineup: De Sanctis; Maicon, Manolas, Yanga-Mbiwa, Holebas; Keita, De Rossi, Nainggolan; Florenzi, Totti, Borriello

Sports Mole says: 1-2
