Monza vs Sassuolo: Over 1.5 Total Goals (-385)

Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing

As Monza prepares to host Sassuolo, the stage is set for a clash that’s likely to deliver more than just a couple of goals. Monza has struggled at home, averaging a paltry 0.8 goals over their last five games, yet they’ve been on the receiving end of a staggering 2.8 goals. This porous defense could be the key, especially against a Sassuolo side that, while also inconsistent, has seen their offense muster an average of 1.6 goals recently. Historically, Monza has held a solid record against Sassuolo, winning three of their last five encounters. Add in the fact that both teams have been showing a tendency to shoot more—Monza averaging over 10 attempts per game, with Sassuolo not far behind—and the likelihood of at least two goals seems strong. With the stats favoring an exciting encounter, betting on over 1.5 total goals feels both compelling and logical.

That is how our model reads Monza v Sassuolo. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back anything. And if a game does not feel right to you, the strongest move is to skip it -- there is another one tomorrow.
