Monza vs Napoli Prediction and Betting Tips | April 7th 2024
Monza will host Napoli at the U-Power Stadium on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 Serie A campaign.
The home side have had mixed results this season but remain hopeful of securing a top-half league finish. They were beaten 1-0 by Torino in their last match, falling to a penalty kick midway through the second half before a red card to team captain Matteo Pessina minutes later all but scuppered their chances of a comeback.
Monza sit mid-table in 11th place with 42 points from 30 games and will be looking to add to that tally this weekend.
Napoli have endured a grossly disappointing title-defending campaign and are falling behind in the race for continental football as the season approaches its end. They were beaten 3-0 by Atalanta in their last match and had presentable chances to get on the scoresheet themselves but failed to convert as they fell to their first defeat against the Bergamo outfit since December 2021.
The visitors sit eighth in the Serie A standings with 45 points picked up so far and will be looking to get their campaign back on track with a win on Sunday.
