Udinese v Liverpool: live - Telegraph Udinese fell at the round of 16 last season after pipping Celtic to second place in Group I. Two draws against Neil Lennon's outfit together with wins against Rennes and Athletico Madrid were enough to see the Italian side through. In the Round of 32 goals from Danilo, Floro Flores and a Domizzi penalty gave Udinese a 3-0 win in Athens in the second leg against PAOK after drawing the first encounter 0-0. But Udinese came unstuck against AZ Alkmaar, who went on to lose in the quarter finals to Valencia. This season Udinese have struggled in Serie A - currently languishing in 9th after 15 games. They have a lot of work to do if they aim to replicate last season's third place finish. 17.16 Here are the full and unadulterated teams: Udinese: Padelli, Faraoni, Heurtaux, Danilo, Pasquale, Pereyra, Agyemang-Badu, Pinzi, Armero, Fabbrini, Ranegie.

The decision was taken by UEFA's executive committee at a meeting in Lausanne today. It means there will be no one country hosting the tournament. The Football Association have already put forward Wembley to UEFA as a possible venue for the final. The announcement will also give hope to Wales, Scotland and the Republic of Ireland hosting some Euro 2020 matches - they too have already expressed their interest to Uefa. Uefa general secretary Gianni Infantino told a press conference after the meeting: "Some important decisions have been taken. UEFA Euro 2020 will be staged across the continent, in various major cities, following a decision taken today. A Euro for Europe follows an initial idea by UEFA president Michel Platini. The response has been extremely positive from all the national associations. Turkey had initially bid to host Euro 2020 and the country's UEFA vice-president Senes Erzik opposed the decision, Infantino confirmed. The format and number of cities that will be involved in the tournament will be decided by UEFA's national teams committee. Thoughts? 17.00 Evening liveblog fans. Several of Liverpool's players will be sitting on the naughty step this evening, that step being an away tie in a competition that nobody much cares about. Luis Suarez, Pepe Reina and Martin Skrtel are allegedly going to start but Steven Gerrard is unwell and Lucas Leival and Daniel Aggert are expected to be rested. All because Liverpool couldn't get the job done at home to Young Boys a couple of weeks ago. The permuatations now are as follows: Liverpool need a win to guarantee their continued involvement. A draw would do if Young Boys are held or beaten at home by Anzhi Makhachkala. A defeat of any kind means Liverpool would be free to concentrate on entirely domestic matters, like a fretting mother before a dinner party. Udinese are already out, but surely the temptation for Brendan Rodgers' side is to score a number of ostensibly disastrous own goals and prevent themselves from having to play any more games in this interminable competition. I tend to say this before every Europa League liveblog I write, but it bears repeating: this is not a terrible competition. Its games, especially after the group stages, tend to be exciting, and who doesn't enjoy exposure to Europe's plucky minnows, faded giants and emerging Eastern European powerhouses? For Liverpool, though, surely not having to play on Thursday nights would be a huge boon? Surely inevitably succumbing to a disappointingly emphatic last 16 exit to Atletico Madrid is a fate worth avoiding? Surely this is a match worth throwing?
