Monza preview: Hoping to end their poor streak without a win
After the first five games in Serie A, Monza remain without a win, along with Cagliari. Of course, with just two points, Monza are in the relegation zone at the moment. Furthermore, Monza had to go through a penalty shootout in the previous Coppa Italia round against Sudtirol, so they clearly have a lot of work ahead of them if they want to save this season.
Alessandro Nesta will once again have to manage without injured Alessio Cragno, Samuele Birindelli, Samuele Vignato, Patrick Ciurria, and Roberto Gagliardini.
Predicted lineup: Pizzignacco (GK), D'Ambrosio, Mari, Carboni, Pereira, Valoti, Pessina, Kyriakopoulos, Forson, Caprari & Maric

Brescia preview: Hoping to surprise another Serie A team

When it comes to team news, Nicolas Galazzi and Andrea Cistana are on Brescia's injury list at this time.
