First match-up between Guidolin and Stramaccioni

This is the first time Francesco Guidolin and Andrea Stramaccioni have faced each other as coaches.

Guidolin's poor record against Inter

Guidolin has met Inter 28 times before, winning 6, drawing 6 and losing 16.

Stramaccioni's first time against Udinese

Andrea Stramaccioni is facing Udinese for the first time as a professional coach.

Udinese's settled side

Udinese have made the fewest substitutions of all Serie A teams in the 2011/12 season: just 79 out of a possible 96.

One defeat for Udinese in 18 home games

The Friulan outfit have lost one of their last 18 Serie A matches played at the Stadio Friuli: that came on 11 February when AC Milan left with a 1-2 victory. In the other 17 games in that period they have managed 12 wins and 5 draws.

Milito, Italy's top scorer in 2012

Diego Milito has reached 20 league goals in a single season for the sixth time in his career. He previously managed it in 2003/04 (Racing Club, Argentine first division, 8 goals + Genoa, Serie B, 12; total 20) 2004/05 (Genoa, Serie B, 21), 2006/07 (Real Saragoza, Spanish first division, 23), 2008/09 (Genoa, Serie A, 24), 2009/10 (Inter, Serie A, 22). Milito is Italy's top scorer in 2012, with 17 goals since the start of the new year.

One defeat in 9 for the Nerazzurri

Inter have tasted defeat just once in their last 9 competitive matches, losing 2-0 away to Juventus on 25 March. The other 8 games in that period have produced 4 wins for Inter and 4 draws.

Only one win on the road for Inter in last 9 trips

Inter have won only one of their last 9 away fixtures: on 9 March they beat Chievo 0-2 in Verona in a Serie A tie. In the other 8 matches the Nerazzurri have drawn 2 and lost 6.
