Monza form and stats

Monza has a nice streak going on as they have played ten consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Lecce defeat 85 days ago.
A nice win for Monza last time playing, versus Frosinone. That was also a home game and the match ended 3-2 with Augusto, Ciurria and Mazzitelli scoring for the victors. The game against Frosinone had lots of late drama as Monza came back from being down 0-2 and finally secured the victory through Mazzitelli's goal in the 90th minute. Monza enjoyed their 3-2 win against Frosinone and the result could have been even better, as they hit the posts three times. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Stroppa when Mazzitelli scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 73rd minute. Some amazing scenes last match, when Mazzitelli scored the winning goal two minutes into stoppage time. Attacking player Gytkjær outdid all the other players in that game and managed a match rating of 7.43 out of 10. Gytkjær hit the woodwork once and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
