Verona vs Monza Prediction
The Mastini returned to winning ways after three games last time around and will look to continue that momentum here. They have scored two goals apiece in four of their last five league games. They have scored two goals in their four Serie A meetings against the visitors and will look to improve upon that record.
Juan Manuel Cruz, Abdou Harroui, Faride Alidou, and Martin Frese remain sidelined with injuries for head coach Paolo Zanetti. Pawel Dawidowicz was injured on international duty and is not an option for this match.
The Biancorossi held Roma to a draw in their previous outing, returning to goalscoring ways, and will look to build on that form. Interestingly, they have failed to score in two of their three away games in Serie A this season.
Roberto Gagliardini and Samuele Vignato trained earlier this week and Alessandro Nesta might start them from the bench. Stefano Sensi, Alessio Cragno, and Andrea Petagna need more time to recover from their injuries.
Considering the current form of the two teams, a low-scoring draw is likely to ensue.
Prediction: Verona 1-1 Monza
