Monza form and stats

Monza have been very solid at home in the Serie B so far, with 23 points collected from 9 matches (7-2-0). This has contributed greatly to their 6th position in the table. The Monza fans aren't used to losing league-games here at U-Power Stadium and will expect new points from this game. Monza has played eleven games in a row here without a defeat.

The home supporters saw a 2-2 draw versus Perugia in the Serie B last time out and are looking for a win here. The hometeam coach Stroppa made a successful contribution in the game against Perugia, bringing on Ciurria who scored the equalizer in the 2-2 draw. The striker Valoti bested all the other players in that game and received a match rating of 7.62 out of 10. Valoti scored one goal and hit one key pass.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Benevento (1-3).

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Monza's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played five games, won three matches, drawn two and lost zero.

Goals decide football matches and Monza are scoring many of them at home; 19 on target from 9 league matches. On the other hand, Monza have conceded 9 goals. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Reggina form and stats

3-3-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Reggina in their Serie B matches away.

Home advantage was not enough for Reggina in their previous game, as they lost their Serie B-match, hosting Brescia, 0-2. Goalkeeper Micai got the top player rating of the team with 7.32/10. Micai stopped the opponent with five saves.

A 1-1 draw at Como's stadium before that.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day.
