Betting on Salernitana
The Salernitana hosts Monza in a middle of a serious crisis and with the urgent need to get three points if they do not want to sleep much closer to relegation. With eight defeats in their last ten Serie A matches, Paulo Sousa’s team occupies the 16th place in the standings with 21 points, just four points ahead of Verona for the final relegation spot to Serie B.
And it is impossible not to be in such a delicate position if they have conceded 44 goals against, the highest number in the Italian league, including 25 goals in their last 10 games played. In terms of home form, Salernitana has not won in front of their home fans for six games and is the fourth-worst team at home, winning just 12 points from 12 games played.
Probable lineup (3-4-2-1): Luigi Sepe; Norbert Gyömbér, Flavius Daniliuc, Lorenzo Pirola; Antonio Candreva, Emil Bohinen, Lassana Coulibaly, Domagoj Bradaric; Federico Bonazzoli, Tonny Vilhena; Krzysztof Piatek.
Betting on Monza
In its first season in Serie A Monza is navigating the calm waters of mid-table and with some quite interesting results against big teams. Although the European places are a bit far away for them, the team coached by Raffaele Palladino is in 11th place with 29 points, 12 points ahead of Verona in the last relegation spot.
Since returning to action after the World Cup break, Monza have lost only one of their eight Serie A games, and that defeat came just last matchday against Milan. Before that defeat they had four draws, one of them against Inter, and three victories, including their second win of the year against Juventus.
Monza has also been playing much better than expected as visitors and has not lost away from home for the last four matchdays. The key for them has been to improve their defense on the road, and in the last two matches in this condition they have kept a clean sheet.
Probable lineup (3-4-2-1): Michele Di Gregorio, Marlon, Luca Caldirola, Armando Izzo, Samuele Birindelli, Matteo Pessina, Nicolo Rovella, Carlos Augusto, Patrick Ciurria, Gianluca Caprari, Andrea Petagna.
JefeBet Prediction
La Salernitana is obliged to win at home this Sunday, but that does not assure them that this will happen, considering the good moment of their opponents.
Monza is one of the hottest clubs since the return from the World Cup break and has shown that it is capable of playing toe-to-toe with the best teams in the league both at home and away.
Their defense has improved away from home, while Salernitana have not scored in three home games.
It is also worth noting that in the last four head-to-head meetings, Monza have not lost, with three wins and one draw, including this season’s victory on matchday 15.
Prediction: Monza to win (SAL 1 – MON 2).
