Monza vs Milan Prediction: Will Monza players manage to break their losing streak?

Two clubs of the Italian Serie A - Monza and AC Milan - will meet in a friendly match. This match will start on August 8. The team led by Stefano Pioli is considered the favorite, the Rossoneri have five consecutive wins in the league. Will the Monza players manage to break the unfortunate series of performances against the Milanese?

The club is showing great results this summer, but it should be recognized that in all four friendly matches, the opponents were clear underdogs. First, Monza sent 11 unanswered goals to Nuova. Then it was 5:0 with Real Vicenza and 5:1 with Giana Erminio. The last opponent was Vis Pesaro, a 3:0 win. Monza was a solid mid-table side in the previous campaign and finished 11th place in the standings.

Naturally, the Rossoneri had much more serious opponents during the pre-season. Milan gained the only victory in four matches in the match with Lumezzane; the team sent seven unanswered goals. Then there was a defeat from Real Madrid with a score of 2:3. In a penalty shootout, Rossoneri lost to Juventus Turin; in regular time, the clubs scored two goals each. Last week, Milan lost to Barcelona with a minimal difference - 0:1. In the previous Serie A campaign, Milan finished fourth in the Champions League, but the Rossoneri lost to their neighbors, Inter, in the semifinals.

Both teams have enough motivation to win the friendly. Monza will try to extend the productive series in the summer and break the series of five consecutive defeats against the Rossoneri. AC Milan would like to approach the first round of Serie A on a positive note and make amends for the last three losses in the preseason. We do not rule out a high performance in the next meeting; the clubs will score at least three times.
