Analysis and forecast for the match on matchday 14 of the Italian Championship “Monza” – “Juventus” (12/01/2023)

The Italian championship is in full swing. A meeting is scheduled for December 1 that will open the 14th round program. Local Monza will host Juventus at the Comunale Brianteo stadium. The starting whistle will sound at 22:45 Moscow time.

Last season was Monza’s first in Serie A in its more than 100-year history. Few believed he would be able to maintain his record, and the dismal start only fueled the belief that the team would be a bust. However, he got used to the pace of the championship and finished 11th in the standings. The albirrojos have become one of the most uncomfortable and inflexible rivals. They repeatedly took points from the leaders.

Thanks to a competent selection, the white and red team has an excellent lineup. On the eve of last season, they were led by the very promising Raffaele Palladino. In the last 10 rounds of the Italian Championship, the 39-year-old specialist’s team only lost against Roma (0-1), on the road. The only bad thing is that there are too many ties: six.

Monza defeated first Sassuolo (1-0) and Salernitana (3-0), and then Verona (3-1). The results could have been even better if newcomer Alejandro Gómez had not received a ridiculous two-year suspension for doping before the victorious World Cup in Qatar.

The 35-year-old footballer said he never relied on the banned practice. Gómez highlighted that the probable infraction was due to the presence of terbutaline in his system, which was inadvertently ingested along with a spoonful of cough syrup so that his son could relieve his cough. The player may appeal.

Juventus had a scandalous story that came to light last season. He was suspended from participating in the European Cup tournaments due to financial fraud and was also deprived of 10 points. If it were not for this punishment, the “old lady” would not have finished in seventh place, but in the Champions League zone.

Despite some personnel problems, Massimiliano Allegri gave the Turin club an almost flawless performance in terms of results. In 13 games, the black and white only lost against Sassuolo (2-4). They also tied with Bologna (1-1), Atalanta (0-0) and the leader Inter (1-1).

Juve is in second place in the standings. The difference with the Nerazzurri is two points. In 13 games, Allegri’s men scored 20 goals, the worst figure among the top 5. However, they only conceded eight goals, minus only Inter.

Despite his success, Allegri’s future is unclear. It is reported that the coach could leave Juventus at the end of the season, as he is not satisfied with the changes that arose after the departure of former club president Andrea Agnelli from office. It is also said that he is not happy with the rumors about the appointment of Antonio Conte as coach of the “old lady”.

However, this is unlikely to have any impact on the outcome of the next meeting. Last season, Allegri managed to maintain motivation and discipline in the team for a long period of time. Despite the 10-point deduction, he fought until the end to reach the top 4.

You can bet that the Turin team will not lose and the total will be less than 2.5 goals in bookmakers with odds of 2.20. Monza also has total order in defense. In 13 matches in Serie A, she only conceded 12 goals, but she herself scored only 14 goals.

There is a high probability that the match will be characterized by an inconclusive draw or a victory of the guests by a minimal margin. The history of head-to-head confrontations is only for this result. The white and red team only managed to win two of the seven official matches, and one of the victories was achieved thanks to the numerical advantage.

Prediction and bets for the Serie A match Monza – Juventus on December 1, 2023

Monza never ceases to surprise. It has firmly established itself among the middle peasants and continues to progress gradually. At home, the red and white will surely impose the fight on Juventus. On the other hand, the “old” one has more resources and also better results. Most likely it will be 0:0 or 1:1. Both teams concede very few goals and rarely score.

Tender: Juventus will not lose and the total will be less than 2.5 goals in 2.20.
