Roma v Monza

Roma vs Monza Preview

Roma extended their unbeaten sequence in the Italian top flight to nine games overall last weekend when the upcoming hosts registered a 1-0 win away from home at Parma but despite this encouraging run of decent results in recent weeks, Roma still find themselves sitting in ninth place in the Serie A table.

Monza meanwhile finally ended their miserable four-match losing streak in the domestic top flight last weekend when they gained a point in a 0-0 draw at home with Lecce but nevertheless, the visitors still remain occupying bottom place in the Serie A table and seven points adrift of safety.

Roma have picked up six wins during this current nine-game unbeaten run in Serie A, three of which have been registered on home soil at their Stadio Olimpico with important victories gained over the likes of Parma, Lazio and Genoa respectively along with keeping four clean sheets within this period as well.

After producing a rather mixed bag of results at home in their opening seven games of this current campaign which consisted of three wins but also four defeats, Roma have seemingly steadied the ship by putting together a five-match unbeaten run at the Stadio Olimpico which includes four wins.

Monza have had to endure a torrid time in this season's Serie A campaign as the visitors not only occupy bottom place in the Italian top flight standings but they have also managed to claim just two wins throughout the whole of this season to date, along with being handed no fewer than 15 defeats within their total of 25 matches played so far.

The visitors face another tough outing here on Monday night as they make their way to the Stadio Olimpico on the back of four defeats within their previous five games with losses incurred at the hands of Bologna, Genoa, Verona and Lazio respectively, which does not bode well for this upcoming encounter.

These recent disappointing results have left Monza fighting for their domestic top flight lives as they now find themselves seven points adrift of fourth from bottom club Empoli ahead of this weekend's action in Serie A.

To make matters worse, Monza have managed to capture just the single win on their travels all season whilst also slipping to seven defeats within their 12 outings on the road to date, and having also lost their last five away games on the trot, Monza look to have a mountain to climb here on Monday night.

Roma v Monza Verdict

Roma's current solid unbeaten run should be enough to earn Claudio Ranieri's side all three points in what could prove to be a decisive win for the hosts as they look to break into the top six pack of the Serie A table, and a win to nil looks to be on the cards here.
