In the 1997-98 season, Udinese Calcio finished third in Serie A, part due to the performances of striker Oliver Bierhoff, who scored 27 league goals in 34 matches. The season was the team's highest final league position since the 1954-55 season.

Bierhoff coach Alberto Zaccheroni and winger Thomas Helveg left for Milan at the end of the season, ensuring Udinese had "much work" to do to maintain its level.
