Just after writing a post about how Alexis Sanchez will start for Udinese, the Chilean starlet pulled up with injury during the warmups. Sanchez had suffered a knock during training earlier in the week, but considering the importance of the match -- A Roma win brings them within three points of Udinese-- the forward was set to start. Instead it is German Denis that partners Antonio Di Natale up front.
Udinese Vs. Roma: Alexis Sanchez Does Not Start, Pulls Out Of Warmups With Injury
Bad news for Udinese, then. Although it is Toto that has the majority of the zebrette goals, tied with Napoli's Edinson Cavani on 25 for the season, the majority of goals scored in open play are created by El Nino Marvillosa. When Sanchez plays, Udinese tend to dominate, the exception being last week's 2-0 loss to Lecce. The loss was Udinese's first of 2011, and they'll be desperate to get back to winning ways and keep hold of their European position.
