AC Monza vs Sassuolo Prediction 28.01.2024

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: 28.01.2024
• Kickoff: 14:00 UTC / 15:00 CET
• Venue: Brianteo (Monza)

Even though Monza has experienced two consecutive losses, they remain comfortably positioned mid-table with a considerable lead over teams in the relegation zone. It’s undeniable that two resounding losses and conceding 8 goals are concerning, but Monza has the capability to bounce back from this challenging situation. The 1-5 loss to Inter isn’t a cause for condemnation, but the 0-3 defeat against struggling Empoli is indeed worrying. Monza’s strength in the earlier part of the championship was their defense, and they have demonstrated the ability to swiftly rectify their errors.

Sassuolo’s current season is performing far worse than in past years. The team is currently hanging by a thread, being only 2 points ahead of the relegation zone. Their form shows a significant downward trend, with Sassuolo having lost 6 out of their last 7 games. Their away game record is even worse, having suffered defeat in 5 out of the last 6 matches. Unquestionably, the club is entering a tough period. It will be fascinating to see how one of Italy’s most rapidly progressing teams in recent years fares by the end of the season.

Monza vs Sassuolo pick: MONZA TO WIN

Monza has an obligation to please its supporters after two bad results and this is the right opportunity for that. The home club has average results so far in this stadium, 3 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, and we expect them to bring it to a positive level by the end of the season. Sassuolo won only twice on away games this season and lost as many as 7 times. They have a solid tradition at this stadium, but the atmosphere in the team is very bad and it is hard to believe that they can achieve a positive result in such a difficult away game. With a victory, Monza would largely ensure survival in the league for the next season. We expect the home team to win
