Monday night Serie A action brings two struggling sides face-to-face as Monza welcome Udinese to the Brianteo Stadium. Both teams are desperately seeking a turnaround in fortunes, with Monza stuck in the relegation zone and Udinese enduring a poor run of form after a promising start to the season. With neither side finding much joy recently, this match promises to be a gritty battle for vital points.
Monza’s season has been a story of near misses and persistent struggles, as they languish in the bottom three with just one win all season (D7, L6). Alessandro Nesta’s side has shown glimpses of resilience, as evidenced by consecutive 1-1 away draws against Torino and Como, where they battled back from deficits to secure points. However, their confidence took a severe hit with a crushing 4-0 Coppa Italia defeat to Bologna midweek.
Returning to the Brianteo Stadium may not offer immediate comfort, as Monza has lost their last two home games by narrow 1-0 margins against AC Milan and Lazio. On the brink of reaching their 100th Serie A goal, Monza will hope that milestone inspires their attack. Gianluca Caprari remains a key figure, especially given his strong record against Udinese, with five goal contributions in his last four matches against them.
Udinese started the season brightly but have since spiraled into a run of five winless matches (D1, L4), slipping toward mid-table mediocrity. Defensive lapses have been a recurring theme, with two penalties conceded, two red cards issued, and three own goals scored in their recent slump. Defender Isaak Touré has particularly struggled, being directly involved in several of these costly errors.
Their away form offers little encouragement, as Udinese have failed to win in their last five road games (D1, L4). Coach Kosta Runjaić faces the challenge of reversing their fortunes against a Monza side they’ve historically struggled against, with just one win in the last nine H2H meetings (D6, L2). Midfielder Sandi Lovrić, known for his knack of early goals, could be pivotal, especially considering his recent scoring streak against Monza.
This matchup pits two sides with glaring weaknesses against each other, creating the potential for a scrappy yet intriguing encounter. Monza’s resilience and Udinese’s defensive instability suggest that the hosts could pose a significant challenge, particularly with Caprari leading the line. A point could be enough for Nesta’s side to gain some breathing space, but the pressure to secure all three points remains high.
Udinese, on the other hand, will need to address their defensive issues quickly if they are to come away with anything from this clash. Lovrić’s form as a quick starter will be critical, as an early goal could unsettle Monza and force them into chasing the game. However, given both teams’ current struggles, this could be a game defined by fine margins and individual moments of brilliance.

Our predicted score is 1-1, as both teams are likely to cancel each other out in a closely fought contest. The suggested bet is Both Teams to Score (BTTS). Monza’s knack for finding the net at home, combined with Udinese’s defensive vulnerabilities, makes this a strong possibility. Additionally, both Caprari and Lovrić have histories of stepping up in these types of fixtures, further enhancing the BTTS prediction.

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
