Monza to Win
Monza have put together a three-game unbeaten run since the campaign’s resumption and their 2-2 draw with Inter and subsequent 3-2 victory over Cremonese in particular, would have galvanised their confidence considerably. On Sunday, Monza host a Sassuolo outfit that have been beaten three times in the bounce and with form on their side, Raffaele Palladino’s troops look backable at the prices on offer. With that in mind, a home win is our first prediction today.
Over 2.5 Goals
Raffaele Palladino has taken the shackles off his Monza team over the past couple of weeks and each of their last two assignments in Serie A have been action-packed as a result. Indeed, four and five goals rattled the net in their last two games against Inter and Cremonese respectively, and more thrills and spills could be in the works when they take on Sassuolo on Sunday.

Monza vs Sassuolo Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for Sunday’s Serie A meeting between Monza and Sassuolo below.
Monza
Monza are sweating on the availability of Dany Mota Cavalho and Nicolo Rovella this week, though both players will hope to recover in time to feature. Monza raced into a three-goal lead at Cremonese in their last league fixture and though they won 3-2, they almost three their advantage away.
Predicted Lineup for Monza: Di Gregorio – Izzo, Mari, Caldirola – Birindelli, Pessina, Machin, Augusto – Ciurria, Caprari, Petagna
Sassuolo
Goalkeeper Andrea Consigli isn't expected back in the fold until next month, while the same could be said of attacker Andrea Pinamonti. Sassuolo are down to 17th in the Serie A table following their 2-0 reverse at home to Lazio last time out.
Predicted Lineup for Sassuolo: Pegolo – Toljan, Erlic, Ruan, Rogerio – Frattesi, Obiang – Berardi, Traore, Lauriente – Alvarez
Player to Watch – Armando Izzo
Centre-back Armando Izzo has arguably been Monza’s best player this season and the experienced campaigner rarely has a poor game at the heart of their defence. The 30-year-old has been averaging a bone-crunching 3.2 tackles per game in Serie A this term and Izzo has also been making 1.5 interceptions per appearance in the division.
