Monza 1-2 Juventus

Current streaks

Recent form

Monza

Monza are enduring a difficult period, currently languishing in 19th position in Serie A with just 10 points from 16 games. Their recent form has been particularly concerning, with the team winless in their last nine matches and failing to keep a clean sheet during this run. The Brianzoli have lost four of their last six games, including a heavy 4-0 defeat to Bologna in the Coppa Italia, which stands out as their most significant loss in this period. Monza's attacking output has been worryingly low, averaging just 0.67 goals per game in their last six matches, while their defence has been porous, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game. Despite their struggles, Monza have shown some resilience, managing to score in 67% of these recent fixtures, although this hasn't translated into positive results. The team's inability to secure victories and their vulnerability at the back are clearly the main factors contributing to their precarious league position.

Juventus

Juventus have shown resilience in their recent form, going unbeaten in their last 12 matches across all competitions. The Old Lady have been particularly difficult to beat, with their last six games resulting in two wins and four draws. Notably, Juventus have been strong defensively, conceding only 0.83 goals per game in their last six matches and keeping three clean sheets. Their most impressive result came in the Champions League, where they secured a 2-0 victory over Manchester City. The Bianconeri's attacking prowess was on full display in their recent Coppa Italia match, thrashing Cagliari 4-0. However, their league form has been somewhat inconsistent, with three consecutive draws in Serie A potentially contributing to their current 6th place position. Despite this, Juventus have maintained a positive goal difference and have been involved in an equal split of high and low-scoring affairs, with 50% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals.

Recent home/away form

Monza

Monza's recent home form has been concerning, with the team enduring a worrying run of three consecutive defeats in their last three Serie A matches at the U-Power Stadium. The Biancorossi have struggled to find the back of the net in their recent league outings, failing to score in their last two home games against Lazio and AC Milan. Despite this poor run, Monza have shown some resilience earlier in the season, securing draws against AS Roma and Venezia. Their most impressive home performance came in the Coppa Italia, where they convincingly defeated Brescia 3-1. Interestingly, Monza have been involved in some tight contests, with 50% of their recent home games seeing under 2.5 goals, while both teams have scored in 67% of these matches. However, their inability to keep clean sheets at home is a significant concern for the struggling side.

Juventus

Juventus have shown a remarkable resilience in their recent away fixtures, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches on the road. The Old Lady have displayed a penchant for draws, with five of their last six away games ending in stalemates. Defensively, Juventus have been solid, keeping three clean sheets in this run. However, their attacking prowess has been somewhat muted, scoring only eight goals across these six matches. The standout fixture in terms of goalscoring was the thrilling 4-4 draw against Inter Milan, which bucked the trend of low-scoring affairs that have characterised their recent away form. Indeed, 83% of their last six away matches have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a cautious approach on their travels. Despite their unbeaten run, Juventus' inability to convert draws into wins may be a concern for the Turin giants as they look to improve their league position.
