THE LOWDOWN
MONZA
The off-field issue at Monza, which was the death of Silvio Berlusconi, could have potentially affected their start to the season, which was a slow one. They have, though, remained ambitious and really grown into the campaign as they challenge for a top-half finish and potentially even squeezing into the top seven.
The home team come into this one on the back of an impressive and comfortable 3-1 defeat of Hellas Verona in their most recent outing, last weekend. Monza have suffered just one loss in their last eight matches as they begin the weekend’s round of fixtures sitting in the top-half of the Serie A table.
TORINO
Over recent seasons, most notably last year, the form and performances have Torino have often been underwhelming and accused of flattering to deceive. That has once again been the case with a progressive and easy on the eye style of football undermined by a lack of incision and effectiveness in attack.
The visitors begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting in the bottom-half of the table but they have generally improved of late, albeit with relatively unconvincing performances against below par or out of form sides. For example, they have edged past both Lecce and Sassuolo by one-goal margins.
THE TEAM NEWS
MONZA
Monza are without new signing Papu Gomez, who is suspended due to doping and they also have injury doubts over the likes of Armando Izzo and Gianluca Caprari.

UNAVAILABLE: Gomez (Suspended)
QUESTIONABLE: Izzo (Injured), Caprari (Injured), D’Alessandro (Injured)
TORINO
Torino have several injury concerns with four players, Samuele Ricci, Perr Schuurs, Koffi Djidji and Brandon Soppy, unavailable.
PREDICTED XI (3-4-1-2): Milinkovic-Savic; Tameze, Buongiorno, Rodriguez; Bellanova, Linetty, Ilic, Vojvoda; Vlasic; Sanabria, Zapata

THE PREDICTION
The hosts started the season really slowly but, as was the case with their second summer transfer window in the top-flight, after gaining promotion to Serie A for the first time ever in 2022, the intention is clear and that is to become a stalwart in the division. Torino have had victories coming in scrappy circumstances against poor or out of form sides so seeing them win in Monza is unlikely. Given that, as well as their home advantage, a double chance in favour of Monza looks the way to go for this one.
BETTING TIP: DOUBLE CHANCE – MONZA TO WIN OR DRAW
