Prediction for the Serie A match which will take place on December 22. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Monza

The team faced AC Milan away in the previous round and played one of the worst games of the season. In the first half, Monza conceded twice, and in the second half, they never got back into the game, allowing their opponents to defeat them 0:3.

The defeat at the San Siro was only Monza's third in their last 13 matches. The other two were goals conceded in the final minutes by Roma and Juventus. At the same time, the Red-Whites have drawn very often at this stage and have slipped to 10th place in the standings, six points behind the European Cup competition.

Fiorentina

The Violets had a hot week last week. On Thursday, the team traveled to Hungary, where they managed to snatch a draw against Ferencvaros (1:1) and retained first place in the Conference League group. And on Sunday, they hosted Verona. Fiorentina experienced many problems; the opponent could score first but failed to realize several chances, and the Violets eventually won. 1:0 - Lucas Beltran scored the winning goal in 78 minutes.

With difficulty, but Fiorentina withstood a serious test on both fronts - they will start the Conference League playoffs right from the round of 16. At the same time, they moved to sixth place in Serie A and are only one point behind the Champions League competition.

Expert Betting Tips

In the match against Verona, Fiorentina looked very hard. The accumulated fatigue from participating in two major tournaments, and the Violets started European competitions with qualification in the summer, makes itself felt. Monza is too strong a team not to take advantage of the functional difficulties of the opponent, especially at their stadium, where the Red-Whites rarely lose. We bet on the hosts, and also not the most productive match - Monza has the top defense, and Fiorentina has problems this season with the realization of scoring chances.
