Monza v Juventus

Monza vs Juventus Preview

Monza will be very satisfied with how their Serie A campaign is going so far this season as the hosts sit in the top half of the Italian top flight table in ninth place and they have been handed just one defeat out of their last 10 matches overall, while Juventus extended their unbeaten run in Serie A to eight matches with a 1-1 draw at home with Inter Milan last weekend.

Monza's singular defeat in recent months in the domestic top flight came in the form of a 1-0 loss on the road at Roma but the hosts have nevertheless made themselves an extremely tough outfit to beat either at home or away and along with picking three wins by way of victories against Sassuolo, Salernitana and Verona, Monza have also been involved in no fewer than six stalemates as well.

The hosts' stubborn streak has contributed to an unbeaten record at home so far this term where they've collected two wins and four draws but goals could be at a premium here on Friday night especially as five of Monza's six home games to date this season have resulted in Under 2.5 goals (83%) and keeping three clean sheets in the process.

Juventus also bring an impressive sequence of results into Friday night's clash at the U-Power Stadium as the Old Lady have registered six wins out of their last eight matches where they've also been unbeaten and having recorded wins on the road at AC Milan and Fiorentina, the visitors will be in confident mood ahead of this upcoming encounter.

The bigger picture shows Juventus have also been a tough unit to break down as the visitors have been dealt just one defeat out of their previous 14 games in the domestic top flight whilst collecting no fewer than 10 wins in the process, so they stand a decent chance of getting something from this upcoming trip.

Again, goals may be in short supply though this Friday at the U-Power Stadium as 10 of Juventus' last 14 games overall have resulted in Under 2.5 goals along with four of their six away games to date also producing two goals or less (66%).

Having also kept six clean sheets out of their last seven outings on the road in Serie A, Juventus look to be a tough nut to crack at the back for hosts, Monza, in this upcoming tussle.

Monza v Juventus Verdict

Monza will not be in awe of their opponents though on Friday night as the hosts registered a solid 2-0 win away from home against their illustrious opponents in January of last season and they'll be looking to do the same at home in this clash too.

However, both teams have been in solid form and could cancel each other out here.

Therefore, our main bet will be Under 2.5 goals @ 1.72
