This is a relegation six-pointer. Parma and Udinese are both on four points, level with Fiorentina and one point above bottom side Venezia.

Udinese went unbeaten in their first four games across Serie A and the Coppa Italia, but have now lost six league games in a row. The latest was Sunday’s 2-0 home defeat to Milan. Reports in Italy say Kosta Runjaic’s job depends on the three games before the international break: Parma, Roma and Venezia.

Parma have lost all three league games since Alberto Gilardino replaced Carlos Cuesta at the end of September. At Lazio on Saturday they went 2-0 down early in the second half, and Simone Lontani’s late goal was only a consolation.
