2013–14 Udinese Calcio season

The 2013–14 season was Udinese Calcio's 34th season in Serie A and their 19th consecutive season in the top-flight. The club competed in Serie A, finishing 13th, and reached the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia. Having finished fifth in the 2012–13 Serie A, Udinese qualified for the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League. The team, however, failed to qualify for the group stage of the tournament, becoming the only Italian team to fail to qualify for a European group stage during the 2013–14 season.
