Udinese make two changes of their own from the side that lost 2-0 to Benevento on December 23. Rodrigo Becao makes way for De Maio in defence, while Arslan drops to the bench to allow Walace to anchor the midfield.
Juventus make two changes from their XI that lost 3-0 to Fiorentina last time out. Juan Cuadrado misses the match due to suspension which allows Danilo to step into defence, while Dybala partners Ronaldo instead of Alvaro Morata.

With 15 minutes to go before kick-off, let’s take a look at how the two sides are lining up - starting with the hosts!
Udinese haven't managed a win in their last three games after going on a run of three consecutive victories in Serie A; a streak that has them in 13th place. A perilous four points outside of the relegation zone but with two games in-hand, the Friuli club are looking at another season of consolidation in midtable.
Juventus return from their holiday and take to the pitch looking to make amends for their shock 3-0 defeat to Fiorentina 12 days ago. The Bianconeri sit seventh in the table with 24 points, but have played fewer matches than all of their rivals above them, and can go into fifth position with a win.
