Salernitana vs Monza Match Preview

Salernitana is ranked in 16th place with 21 points and is experiencing a dark period as they come after a single win and four losses over the last five matches. Now they sit only four points above the relegation zone and even changed their coach as Nicola was sacked with Sousa replacing him. In the debut game of Sousa though, they still lost 0-2 against Lazio.

With 25 goals scored their offensive side has been decent considering that they are one of the best from the bottom half teams but in the last five matches scored only two goals in the win against Lecce. Somehow it was quite difficult for them considering that three of these losses came against Napoli, Juventus, and Lazio which are some of the best sides in the league.

Dia has had a very good season with 8 goals - 4 assists and is followed by Piatek with the Polish striker having netted 3 goals - 2 assists.

Monza, on the other hand, is ranked in 11th place with 29 points and comes after two wins two draws, and a single loss over the last five matches. They have improved a lot considering the first part of the season and for the moment, not only they are out of the relegation zone but they have a comfortable 12-point distance from it.

With 28 goals scored their offensive side has been more than decent considering they are one of the newly promoted teams and in the last five games they scored six goals averaging a goal per game. Worth noting the win they got on the road against Juventus with a clear 0-2 result.

Their best scorer has been Carlos Augusto with 4 goals - 3 assists followed by Caprari with 4 goals - 1 assist.

In conclusion, I think both teams can score at least a goal here. Salernitana plays at home a direct duel for relegation and they can not aford another defeat after the one against Verona. Monza on the road failed to keep a clean sheet in three of the last five games but scored in each of them.
