Monza vs Spezia Prediction: A tough encounter between championship underdogs

In another match on Matchday 9 of the Italian Championship, Monza will face La Spezia. Who will be stronger in this meeting between the Serie A underdogs?

With Raffaele Palladino replacing Giovanni Stroppa as Monza's new coach, things suddenly got better for the Bianconeri. For the match against La Spezia, Monza is coming up with two wins in a row. First, they beat Juventus (1:0) on home soil and then Sampdoria (3:0) on the road.

They have already secured two wins in the eight rounds of the championship. However, both victories were recorded at home - over Empoli (1:0) and Sampdoria (2:1). The Eagles have been without a goal away from home so far. However, it should be noted that La Spezia played all of their away games against the Serie A giants. On the previous matchday, they lost to Lazio (4:0). Before that, they lost to Inter (0:3), Juventus (0:2), and Napoli (0:1). An entirely predictable result - it was difficult to expect a modest side to put up a good fight against the season's favorites.

Monza has played two excellent games in a row, defeating Juventus and Sampdoria. However, in their upcoming match against La Spezia, they cannot be sure of success as the Eagles have gained experience over the past three years in Serie A, enabling them to draw consistently well in games against equally-ranked opponents. For example, having lost to all the favorites at the start of the season, La Spezia has never lost against the runners-up or the underdogs. Likely, Monza won't be able to beat these unyielding Eagles, either.
