Quagliarella turns 36 next week, but he has found the net in each of his last 10 Serie A appearances.

Quagliarella turns 36 next week, but he has found the net in each of his last 10 Serie A appearances.
If he scores again, it’ll equal the record set by Batistuta for Fiorentina in 1994 and be an extraordinary achievement.
He is supported by Riccardo Saponara and Gregoire Defrel, because Gaston Ramirez is suspended, with Gianluca Caprari, Jacopo Sala and Paulo Barreto injured.
Udinese start Okaka for the second time after his transfer from Watford and he did score on his debut, but that didn’t prevent the team’s 2-1 defeat to Parma.
Lukasz Teodorczyk, Emmanuel Badu, Antonin Barak and Samir are out of action, with Ignacio Pussetto returning from suspension, but still left on the bench.
Rodrigo De Paul provides the assists amid rumours of a move to Inter.
Sampdoria: Audero; Bereszynski, Colley, Andersen, Murru; Praet, Ekdal, Linetty; Saponara; Quagliarella, Defrel
Udinese: Musso; Opoku, Troost-Ekong, Nuytinck; Stryger-Larsen, Behrami, Mandragora, Fofana, D’Alessandro; De Paul; Okaka
