Despite rumors that the diminutive Chilean would not be fit to start, having picked up an injury in training, Alexis Sanchez is in the starting lineup for Udinese as they host Roma. Both teams are competing for the coveted fourth position in Serie A, a chance to play Champions League football. The zebrette will be bolstered by Sanchez's fitness, as they've yet to win a match without him in the lineup. Marco Borriello remains on the bench for Roma, with Vincenzo Montella favoring a Mirko Vucinic - Francesco Totti paring.
