Both aiming to end their long wait for a Serie A win, Monza and Udinese meet at U-Power Stadium on Monday.
Monza:
Monza’s struggles under Alessandro Nesta continue as the Brianzoli endure a dismal run of form, with just one Serie A win this season. Midweek Coppa Italia elimination against Bologna highlighted their vulnerabilities, as defensive lapses and lack of attacking edge persist. Despite Gianluca Caprari’s penalty salvaging a draw against Como last week, Monza are winless in 11 home games and remain in desperate need of a revival. Nesta will hope his side can deliver their 100th Serie A goal on Monday to break the cycle.
Udinese:
Udinese's promising start under Kosta Runjaic has faded dramatically, with the Friulani earning just seven points from their last 10 matches. Last week's 2-0 defeat to Genoa, compounded by Isaak Toure’s early red card, marked their fourth loss in five games. Away form remains a major issue, with just one point taken on the road since mid-October. Runjaic’s side must stabilize quickly as they prepare for a challenging schedule, including Napoli and Inter Milan in the coming weeks.
