Juventus, meanwhile, are unbeaten in the league this term. They have endured a slow start to their campaign and with just two wins in six games. The Bianconeri are in eighth place in the standings, four points behind league leaders Napoli.

They have played out draws in their last two league games. They were held to a 2-2 draw by Salernitana in their previous league outing, with Leonardo Bonucci scoring the equaliser in the third minute of added time.

Arkadiusz Milik had a late winner ruled out by VAR and was sent off for a second yellow card for his wild celebration. Juventus' winless run continued in the UEFA Champions League, where they suffered a 2-1 home loss to Benfica.

Monza picked up their first point of the season in their previous outing and will look to build on that performance. They will play for the first time under new coach Raffaele Palladino, which might impact their performance.

Juventus are struggling at the moment. While they are expected to maintain their undefeated run against Monza, given their form, a draw might ensue.
