All three Serie A clubs advanced in the Coppa Italia on Sunday, with both Udinese and Torino registering comfortable victories.
Udinese defeated Lega Pro leaders Novara 3-1 at home, Torino conceded the opener against Serie B's Pescara only to triumph 4-1, while Serie A debutants Carpi won 2-0 over Livorno after extra time.
At the Stadio Communale Friuli, Udinese led 2-0 at half-time thanks to a 40-yard stunner from Guilherme and Cyril Thereau's tap-in two minutes apart.
The hosts' goalkeeper Orestis Karnezis gave Novara some hope in the 74th minute when he fumbled Daniele Buzzegoli's free-kick into the net but Edenilson saved his team-mate's blushes with a header five minutes later to wrap up Udinese's victory and send them into the fourth round.
Carpi found it more difficult to dismiss former Serie B rivals Livorno on Sunday, with Ryder Matos' brace in extra time seeing the Modena province club advance.
