AC Milan form

AC Milan beat Juventus by 2-0, lost 0-2 against Chelsea, before defeating Verona 1-2. AC Milan showed little mercy in their past six matches at San Siro, of which they won five, drew none and lost once. They hit the target 14 times, while letting in six themselves.

Monza Form

Six points is Monza have to show from their past three matches, as they beat Spezia by 2-0. This was followed by a 1-0 defeat against Empoli, before winning 2-3 against Udinese. Monza claimed just one win from the last six away games in the Serie A. They also drew one and were defeated three times, as they were outscored by nine goals to four.

Monza were dreaming of a comfortable mid-table finish, but abysmal form sees them punching far below expectations.

We expect AC Milan to make home advantage count but equally, we do not expect a festival of goals against Monza. Hence, our punt on the home win in a match with no more than three goals.
