Monza vs Fiorentina

Current streaks

Recent form

Monza

Monza are enduring a torrid run of form, finding themselves rooted to the bottom of Serie A with a dismal six-match losing streak across all competitions. The Biancorossi have conceded a worrying 14 goals in their last six games, shipping an average of 2.33 per match, while only managing to score five themselves. Their defensive woes are further highlighted by their failure to keep a clean sheet in their last 12 outings. Particularly concerning was their 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Bologna in the Coppa Italia, which stands out as the heaviest defeat in this recent poor spell. With all of their last six matches featuring over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in 83% of these fixtures, Monza's games have been entertaining for neutrals, if not for their own supporters. The team's inability to secure a single point from their last six league matches has left them in a precarious position, desperately needing to arrest their slide to avoid relegation.

Fiorentina

Fiorentina's recent form has been rather inconsistent, with the Viola experiencing a concerning run of five games without a win across all competitions. Despite sitting in a respectable 6th position in Serie A, their last six matches have yielded only one victory, a remarkable 7-0 thrashing of Lask Linz in the Europa Conference League. This high-scoring affair stands out as an anomaly in their recent results, contributing significantly to their average of 1.83 goals scored per game. Defensively, Fiorentina have struggled, keeping just one clean sheet in their last six matches and conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game. The team's tendency towards high-scoring encounters is evident, with 67% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals. However, their inability to secure wins, particularly in Serie A, where they've suffered three losses in their last four league games, suggests a dip in form that Fiorentina will be keen to address.

Recent home/away form

Monza

Monza's recent home form has been abysmal, with the team currently enduring a concerning five-match losing streak at their own ground. Their last positive result at home was a 2-2 draw against Venezia, but since then, they have suffered defeats to AC Milan, Lazio, Udinese, Juventus, and Cagliari. Notably, Monza have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last six home matches, conceding at least one goal in each game. The team's goal-scoring prowess has also been lacklustre, managing to find the back of the net only five times in these six encounters. Whilst there haven't been any particularly high-scoring games, it's worth noting that four out of the six matches saw over 2.5 goals scored. This poor run of form has contributed significantly to Monza's current position at the bottom of the Serie A table.

Fiorentina

Fiorentina's recent away form has been inconsistent, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in their last six matches on the road. The Viola have struggled to find the back of the net consistently, averaging just 1.17 goals per game, but have been relatively solid defensively, conceding only one goal per match on average. Interestingly, two-thirds of their away fixtures have seen fewer than 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards tighter, lower-scoring affairs. Fiorentina have managed to keep two clean sheets during this period, demonstrating their ability to shut out opponents away from home. However, their Europa Conference League performances have been less impressive, with a draw against Guimaraes and a defeat to Apoel Nicosia highlighting potential struggles in continental competitions. Despite these mixed results, Fiorentina have maintained a respectable 6th position in Serie A, indicating their overall competitiveness in the league.
