Season overview
Serie A
Udinese were unbeaten in their first seven Serie A games, and only conceded 1 goal in that period, which was the best defensive record in top European leagues at the time.[1] They also top Serie A at the moment, and compared to much more expensive squad of Manchester City which also top Premier League in the same time.[2]
Europe
Udinese were drawn against English side Arsenal for qualification into the UEFA Champions League. The first leg was played away at the Emirates Stadium, which resulted in a 1–0 defeat.[3] The second leg was a heavily contested match, with Udinese taking a 1–0 lead at half-time to level the aggregate score to 1–1 but Arsenal caught up in the second half and Udinese lost 2–1, and 3–1 on aggregate.[4] Udinese were then drawn into the Europa League.
