Good evening all and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Serie A clash between Juventus and Udinese from the Juventus Stadium.

Juve probing Udinese's defence as Tevez tries to play a neat one-two with Llorente but he is unable to pick up the return pass from the Spain international.

It's been a lively start, with Juve looking to take the game to their opponents. Udinese, however, have looked dangerous when on the attack too.

Juventus come forward again. This time Llorente picks out the run of Marchisio with a clever ball that splits open the defence. The midfielder, though, is unable to bring it under control and Brkic is there to smother.

Some good news for Conte and his side as Pirlo has shaken off his injury and is now back on the field.

That really was a brilliant save from the Udinese goalkeeper. Tevez's effort was heading straight for the top corner.

Juventus go down the other end and Marchisio tees up Tevez on the edge of the box with a lovely touch. The forward smashes the ball first time towards goal, but Brkic is able to pull off a fine save to keep the strike out.

Udinese with their first attack of the game as Gabriel Silva gets to the byline and whips a cross into the box from the left. Juve clear it but only as far as Allan, however, his strike sails well wide.

The Italy international has gone to the side of the pitch to receive some treatment. It looks as though he will be able to play on.

Pirlo is down following a strong challenge from Lazzari. There is concern from Antonio Conte on the Juve bench.

It's been a pretty scrappy start from the away side's point of view. On the rare occasion that they have got hold of the ball, they have soon then lost it.

Juventus come forward through De Ceglie who picks out the run of Vidal in the box. However, the midfielder fouls a defender and Udinese win a free-kick.

The home side are playing the ball around nicely in these opening exchanges and giving everyone a chance to get their first touches of the game.

Juventus get this game underway...

The teams are out onto the pitch. We are just moments away from kick-off...

The last meeting between these two sides was on January 19 at the Juventus Stadium. On that day, the Bianconeri ran out 4-0 winners, with Vucinic, Matri and Pogba, who struck twice, all getting themselves on the scoresheet.

Juventus come into this game in fine form, having picked up five straight Serie A wins. The away side, in contrast, have lost four of their last six, while they have also been defeated in five out of their six away games this season.

Juventus have a chance to stretch their lead at the top of the Serie A table tonight after Roma could only manage a 1-1 draw at Atalanta earlier today. A win for the Bianconeri would see them move three points clear of the capital club.

Juventus make three changes to the side that beat Copenhagen on Wednesday with Barzagli, De Ceglie and Marchisio coming in for Caceres, Asamoah and Pogba. Udinese, meanwhile, make just the one change to the side that saw off Fiorentina last week with Allan coming in for Pinzi.
