Monza vs Empoli Prediction: the Hosts to Take Revenge

Prediction for the Serie A Monza vs Empoli match, which will take place on March 4th. In the first round of the championship, Monza lost away to Empoli with a minimum score.

At the beginning of the year, Raffaele Palladino's squad enjoyed an excellent seven-game unbeaten streak when they took points from Inter, defeated Juventus, and a tough Bologna side, among others. However, Monza slumped in the previous two rounds and suffered two defeats. Sure, we can understand and forgive the loss, even if it was at home 0:1 to Milan, then the away game with Salernitana, which ended in a 0:3 defeat, can only be described as a failure. However, the Whites and Reds gained too much momentum and had to come back at some point. We should remember that last season Monza played in Serie B.

The Blues, like Monza, rarely failed in the second part of the championship. Paolo Zanetti's team lost only on the road to Roma and in the previous round at home to Napoli - both games ended 0:2. In addition, Empoli has drawn with Lazio, Torino, and Fiorentina, as well as two wins - over Sampdoria and, most importantly, away over Inter. Overall, the same can be said of Monza. Empoli sits solidly in the standings' middle and does not contend for relegation.

As mentioned, this season, Empoli beat Monza 1:0 at home. Last season in Serie B, both meetings between the opponents ended in a draw - 1:1 and 0:0. That is, all the matches were under one. Less than three goals will also likely be scored in the upcoming game. In addition, we should consider a Monza win or a draw. After losing to Salernitana 0:3, Raffaele Palladino's team has to make conclusions and have a quality match. After all, Monza showed excellent soccer before this failure, and it is no coincidence that they have not lost for such a long time.
