Sassuolo vs Monza
Italian Serie A
Date: 19 May 2023, Friday
Kick-off at 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
Venue: MAPEI Stadium – Citta del Tricolore (Reggio nell’Emilia).
Sassuolo host Monza in the first game of Matchday No 36 in Italian top flight on Friday evening at MAPEI Stadium – Citta del Tricolore.
The two teams sit in the middle of the league ladder and have nowhere tzo go in the remaining three outings of the campaign.
Sassuolo took just one point from the previous three affairs and they will be motivated to bounce back in the penultimate home match of the campaign.
I Neroverdi shipped four goals in an away loss at Inter Milan six days ago. They now have five straight fixtures without a clean sheet in the league.
Nevertheless, head coach Alessio Dionisi can be satisfied with the attacking display his men have put up last weekend at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
Sassuolo created plenty of chances against I Nerazzurri on the occasion, scoring two goals and having one more disallowed.
Dionisi’s men can be optimistic ahead of this tie knowing they are unbeaten in six subsequent home affairs. Sassuolo won two and drew one of the previous three league fixtures in Reggio nell’Emilia.
However, the hosts’ optimism diminishes knowing how strong Monza’s recent displays have been. The visitors extended their unbeaten thread to seven league outings by beating Napoli 2-0 last Sunday at the U-Power Stadium.
Sassuolo vs Monza Head-to-head
- Sassuolo can rely on tradition because they have lost just one of eight head to head outings with Monza.
- The teams shared spoils in a 1-1 stalemate when they met each other in the first half of the season in January this year.
- We’ve seen goals at both ends in each of the previous five H2H matches between Sassuolo and Monza.
Sassuolo vs Monza Prediction
Monza are unbeaten in seven straight games despite a tricky schedule featuring the clashes against Inter Milan, Fiorentina, Roma, Torino, and Napoli along the way. Their in-form strikers (namely Dany Mota) should have plenty of space past the leaky Sassuolo defense on Friday.
Knowing also about Sassuolo’s attacking prowess, we have to take the Over 2.5 goals FT & Both Teams To Score pick at the odds of 2.05. The value is excellent with Dany Mota to score anytime for the visitors at the 3.40 odds, following his opener in the last weekend’s win over Napoli.
