Monza form and stats

6-5-6 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Monza so far this season.

Monza travelled for their previous game, a trip to Torino that ended 1-1. Caprari was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Torino after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Roma that ended 1-1.

Monza are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 23 goals in 17 games. 21 goals have been conceded.

Napoli form and stats

Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of Napoli so far, with 14-2-1 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Serie A statistics. Napoli are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played nine in a row without losing.

Napoli are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the game against Fiorentina (placed 8th). Østigård was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.3. The defender Østigård won 4 of 6 duels.

Before that, Napoli travelled to Udinese and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

Few goals the story here? 9 of this side's last 12 league matches have seen zero, one or two goals.

The Napoli manager Spalletti has got the team scoring on the road, with 35 away goals in 17 league matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far).

Head 2 Head

Napoli - Monza 4-0 was the output when this pair of squads last played each other, also in this season. Kvaratskhelia likes to play against Monza and have scored 2 goals in these encounters.
