Monza, Recent FormMonza boss Raffaelle Palladino will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 3-0 away mauling from AC Milan. During that encounter they had 55% possession and had 21 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 9 of their 17 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Monza will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games, but having managed just 2 wins leaves them plenty of room for improvement. Their home form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 4 draws in 8 home league games.
Fiorentina, Recent FormFiorentina enter this game with a comfortable 1-0 home win over Hellas Verona last time out in the league. Their share of possession in that meeting was 66%, while racking up 5 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Hellas Verona had 19 shots on goal with 7 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 7 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 4 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
It's been a mixed run of away form for Fiorentina recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 games on the road.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Fiorentina, Nicólas González will be looking to add more goals against Monza in this match.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 3-2 win for Monza.
There is only really one injury concern for the Monza manager Raffaelle Palladino ahead of this clash, with Gianluca Caprari (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Palladino a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Vincenzo Italiano has a number of injury concerns in his Fiorentina squad to contend with: Gaetano Castrovilli (Knee), Domilson Dodô (Cruciate ligament), Nicólas González (Thigh) and Tommaso Martinelli (Thigh)
