Monza
Monza played two matches over the past week: first drawing with Como in the league (1:1), followed by a heavy defeat to Bologna in the Cup (0:4). The match against Udinese will mark Alessandro Nesta's 100th game in Serie A. "I've never looked for alibis. What we need is to become more 'nasty', punishing opponents after creating chances. I know the upcoming matches will be very difficult, but I have confidence in my work and I’m staying true to my path. Why did I field reserves in the cup match? Our goal is not to win that trophy; the main priority is to survive in Serie A," said Nesta.
In the match against Udinese, the coach will have to do without Andrea Petagna, who has not yet recovered from pneumonia. Samuel Vignato's participation in this encounter is also uncertain.
Udinese
Udinese unexpectedly lost at home to Genoa (0:2) and, after nine matches in Matchday 15, has slipped to 10th place in the standings. The key event of that match occurred in the fourth minute when central defender Toure received a red card. Coach Costa Runjaic noted that this red card could have been avoided.
The Italian press pointed out that the red card influenced the result; however, beyond that, Udinese "lacked the right mentality to navigate the ship in the midst of a storm": Costa Runjaic's team was not threatening near the opponents' goal, even when Genoa appeared less aggressive. "The fourth defeat in the last five matches opens up a crisis,"
Worse news for Udinese continued as they also lost their main goalkeeper Okoye. Unless unforeseen circumstances arise, he will be replaced by Sava.
Monza possible starting lineup:
Turati; Izzo, Mari, Carboni; Pereira, Bianco, Bondo, Kyriakopoulos; Caprari, Mota; Djuric
Udinese possible starting lineup:
Okoye; Ehizibue, Bijol, Giannetti, Zemura; Lovric, Karlstrom, Zarraga; Thauvin; Lucca, Davis
Monza vs Udinese Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
The two teams have squared off 23 times in all competitions. They have been evenly matched in these meetings with seven wins apiece and nine games ending in draws.
Six of the last eight meetings between them have ended in stalemates, including their league meetings last season.
The visitors are unbeaten in their four Serie A meetings against I Brianzoli, with three ending in draws.
Monza have won just one of their last 23 Serie A games, with that triumph coming away from home against Verona in October.
Udinese have one win in their seven away games in Serie A this season while suffering four losses.
Seven of the nine meetings between the two teams have produced under 2.5 goals
Prediction: Monza 1-2 Udinese
Though neither side has impressed of late, the visitors have a more significant threat up front, and their hosts are at a low ebb in terms of confidence. Udinese rank second in Serie A for headed goals (six), while Monza have conceded the most from headers so far (seven), so taking a direct route could see the Friulani secure victory.
