Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the Serie A match.
The Serie A title race appears all but settled. Napoli remain three points adrift of leaders Internazionale, and only a dramatic turnaround would see them re-enter the title conversation. One thing is certain: the team cannot afford to drop any more points.
Monza
Monza have endured a dismal campaign and are anchored to the bottom of the standings. That said, they approach each fixture with grit and determination, often managing to trouble even the strongest opponents. They recently pushed Internazionale to the limit in a narrow 3:2 loss and followed that up with a 2:1 win over Fiorentina.
Napoli
Napoli seem to be running out of steam as the season winds down. Their decline began in January, despite hard-fought wins over Atalanta (3:2) and Juventus (2:1). Since then, the squad has managed just three victories in ten matches, conceding in eight of those fixtures.
Monza vs Napoli Prediction
Their away form has been particularly underwhelming, with five successive draws. In only one of those outings did they score more than once. Meanwhile, Monza have proven to be difficult hosts and could once again pose a serious challenge for a more established side.
