Parma vs. Udinese (Monday, 5.30pm)

Both exceeding expectations so far this season, promoted Parma and unlikely pace-setters Udinese meet at Stadio Tardini on Monday.

Only a late implosion before the international break stopped Parma joining their visitors on seven points in the Serie A standings, but a win would draw them level with the Friulani.

We say: Parma 2-1 Udinese

Only Torino have faced more shots than either Parma or Udinese in Serie A this season, so it may be a pleasing spectacle for the neutral at Stadio Tardini.

The Gialloblu were very unfortunate to lose last time out, and they can join their visitors on seven points by edging to victory on home turf.

After an inconsistent start to the season, Lazio will seek their second Serie A home win when they host Hellas Verona on Monday.

The teams convene at Stadio Olimpico, with the hosts surprisingly trailing their visitors in the table following a lively draw with AC Milan just before the international break.

We say: Lazio 2-1 Hellas Verona

While Verona have exceeded expectations so far this season, Lazio may deal out a defeat to the Scaligeri on Monday evening.

The hosts have averaged two goals per game since freshening up their attack during the summer, so they can claim maximum points on home turf.
