Monza take on Udinese in the 3rd round of Serie A this Friday. The newly-promoted home team is yet without points in Serie A. Can they win the upcoming game? Here's our prediction.

Command Analysis

Monza

Monza had a good season in Serie B, but in the last round of the competition, they lost 0:1 to Perugia and dropped to the 4th line in the table, thus losing a chance to get a direct promotion to the elite. In the Serie B playoffs, Monza beat Pisa (2:1, 4:3 ET).

In the pre-season friendlies, Monza looked impressive. They kicked off the new season with a victory over Frosinone (3:2) in the first round of Coppa Italia. In the opening games of Serie A, Monza suffered defeats to such strong opponents as Torino (1:2) and Napoli (0:4).

Ranocchia and Dany Mota got injured at the start of the season and have been ruled out.

Udinese

Udinese collected a total of 47 points in the previous edition of Serie A. The team looked solid on offense both at home and away, and scored 30 goals in 19 away games (they scored 31 goals at home).

In the offseason, Le Zebrette were unimpressive, but they started the new football year with a victory over Feralpisalò (2:1) in Coppa Italia. After that, the team put up a good fight against reigning champions AC Milan (2:4). On the second matchday, Udinese got a goalless draw against Salernitana.

Nehuén Pérez was sent off in the previous game, and he won't be able to play this weekend.

Tip and bets

TipTotal over 2.5 goals

1.86

Our recommendation is to take the over in this game. In order to pick up their first points in Serie A, the hosts will play an open brand of football against their opponents, which will lead to a large number of scoring chances. The visitors, on the other hand, scored two goals against AC Milan. This time, they have a much weaker opponent, and we don't see why they wouldn't be able to deliver goals.

Our prediction - total over 2.5 goals

Will the prediction win?

TipMonza to win by 1 goal

4.60

Monza had a great season last year, worked hard in the offseason, and strengthened their squad during the transfer window. Their home performances have always been good, while Udinese might encounter unexpected problems on their travels due to their inconsistent play. We give the home team a slight edge.

Take Monza's win by 1 goal.
