In this week 11 match, on Sat Oct 22nd, Milan will host Monza at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Serie A teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. In their last match, 3rd placed Milan, recorded a 2-1 win against Hellas Verona. Miguel Veloso scored the first goal for Milan on an own goal in the 9th minute, then Koray Günter tied it up for Hellas Verona in the 19th minute on a feed from Fabio Depaoli. Milan is on a hot streak lately, with 7 wins in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 14th placed Monza, recorded a 0-1 loss against Empoli. Nicolas Haas struck first for Empoli in the 11th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring At the end of 90 a dissapointed Monza couldn’t manage to score, and Empoli took the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season.
Stefano Sensi has been the most prolific scorer on Monza in the last five matches with two goals. Rafael Leão and Fodé Ballo-Touré are the top scorers for Milan in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
