Juventus-Udinese and Monzo-Inter are among the matches taking place during matchday 17 in Serie A, which begins on Saturday, January 7th.

Juventus come into this game having won their last seven Serie A games and are looking to make it an eighth on the spin for the first time since December 2018. In addition, Massimiliano Allegri's side have managed to keep clean sheets in all seven of those matches since losing 2-0 to AC Milan in October, and have a great opportunity to potentially leapfrog Milan into second spot and put some pressure on league leaders Napoli when they welcome struggling Udinese on Saturday.

Udinese currently sit in eighth place, but the Zebrette are in an awful run of form. They have failed to win their last eight games, and come into this match having drawn Empoli 1-1. Although Andrea Sottil's side do have a very comfortable gap between themselves and the sides struggling to stay afloat, the fact that they have lost 65 times to Juventus - more than against any other opponent - does not bode well for the visiting side.

Still, Juventus will not be coming into this match too overconfident, as the hosts will be missing quite a few players for this tie, while the visiting team only have a handful of players still on the treatment table. In addition, Udinese, despite their woes, have lost just one of their last four meetings against teams who currently sit in the top five of the table, and will be hoping to kick start 2023 by causing a major upset in Turin on Saturday.

Team news: Juventus vs Udinese

Juventus: Dusan Vlahovic, Leonardo Bonucci, Juan Cuadrado, and Paul Pogba are all still out. Meanwhile, Argentinian duo Angel Di Maria and Leandro Paredes have returned to training but it remains to be seen whether they will be involved in any capacity after their long hiatus post the World Cup.

Udinese: Udinese have pretty much a full-strength squad, with only Adam Masina and Gerard Deulofeu out.

Having beaten Napoli midweek - and becoming the first team to do so in Serie A - Inter will now turn their attention towards facing newly promoted Monza. The Nerazzurri have now won three on the spin and are heavy favorites to make it a fourth victory as they aim to close the gap on Juventus, Milan, and Napoli as the Scudetto race heats up.

To date, Simone Inzaghi's side are unbeaten in their last 25 matches against newly promoted teams, with wins in 22 of those ties. Additionally, a win for Saturday's visitors will mean they match a notable record set by Roma and beat all 68 teams who have featured in Italian football's top flight. Meanwhile, Raffaele Palladino's side presently find themselves in 15th spot, with 17 points seeing them, at the moment, eight points clear of Sampdoria, which means that, for now, the hosts do have a slight cushion between themselves and the drop zone.

A victory for Inter would help them keep up the pressure on third-placed Juventus, and depending on how Juve's match against Udinese goes, could actually see the Nerazzuri leap-frog the Bianconeri into third. However, with Udinese winless in their last eight games, Inter will not be expecting anything else but a win for Juventus, and so will be firmly focused on picking up all three points in what should be a straightforward match for Inzaghi's troops.

Team news: Monza vs Inter

Monza: Both Stefano Sensi and Nicolo Rovella are still out, but Pablo Mori has returned to the fold after missing quite a few matches after his unfortunate stabbing last year. 

Inter: Veteran midfielder Marcelo Brozovic is still out due to a calf strain, but other from that, Simone Inzaghi will have everyone else available.
