Spezia
- Spezia coach Roberto Donadoni is an experienced tactician who has overseen some of Italy’s most successful clubs.
- Speaking of structure, Spezia tend to set up in either a 3-5-2 or 3-4-1-2 formation, with a focus on compactness and counter-attacking play through their wing-backs and wide players.
- Their home form remains a concern ahead of this game though, with Spezia winless in their last 3 games at home (D1, L2).
Monza
- Paolo Bianco’s team have won 4 of their last 5 Serie B games and sit in second place, 32 points clear of Spezia in 17th, having accumulated 57 points from just 27 games.
- Bianco has built a modern, possession-based system around a 4-3-3 base, with plenty of fluidity in the positions and a willingness to press teams in numbers.
Head-to-Head
Monza have won both of the last two Serie B meetings with Spezia , and they’ll be favourites to pick up another win at the weekend.
Key Players
Hernani has been in particularly lethal form for the away side with 5 goals in just 8 Serie B outings .
Betting Insights
Monza are clear favorites at 2.04 , which looks fair considering their form and recent head-to-head domination.
Prediction
With Bianco’s men boasting a greater head-to-head advantage, form, and team cohesion, we’re confident that the visitors will be able to pick up all 3 points on Saturday.
