PivotalOutstanding performance

Udinese struck first against the run of play, with Jesper Karlström converting just after the restart despite Lazio controlling the ball for long stretches. Lazio's dominance showed in the numbers - 60% possession, 19 shots to Udinese's 10, and 8 corners to 2 - and they eventually made it count through Davide Frattesi's close-range finish after a scrambled corner situation. The visitors' bench proved decisive as substitute Albert Gudmundsson headed in the winner in the 88th minute after Mattia Zaccagni had rattled the post moments earlier, capping a game that swung from a shock Udinese lead to a Lazio triumph built on second-half pressure and squad depth.
How entertaining was this match?
Udinese welcome Lazio to Dacia Arena with both sides unbeaten in the early Serie A rounds. Lazio arrive on the back of two straight wins, while Udinese look to build on a solid start and keep their home form intact against a historically tricky opponent.
