Monza and Sassuolo clash on Sunday afternoon at the U-Power Stadium as both teams compete for crucial points in Serie A.
The Italian top-flight’s new boys are enjoying a steady run of league form, as they are unbeaten in four matches, having recorded two wins and two draws.
Last time out, they recorded a 3-2 win at Cremonese. The game saw the home team score at least two goals for the third time in their last four games in Serie A.
Monza’s recent improvement in front of goal is welcome, as only four teams have scored fewer goals in Serie A this season.
Raffaele Palladino’s team has a solid recent record on home soil, as they have won four of their previous six Serie A games on home soil.
Monza has also scored at least two goals in four of their last five home games in the Italian top flight.
The visitors are experiencing a difficult campaign in the Italian top flight, as they currently sit in 17th place in the Serie A table. However, despite their seemingly perilous position in the table, Sassuolo are seven points clear of the relegation zone.
They head into this game on the back of a seven-game winless run in the Italian top flight, including six defeats. To make matters worse, Sassuolo has also suffered four straight losses in Serie A.
Their biggest problem of late in Serie A has been conceding too many goals, as Alessio Dionisi’s team has conceded at least two goals in their last four league matches.
Sassuolo have also been woeful travellers recently in Serie A, as they have lost five straight away games in the Italian top-flight while conceding at least two goals in four of the defeats.
Forebet predicts that Monza will continue their recent solid form by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
