Both Tied in Last Serie A Fixture

Oops! They did it again! Last week Juventus was hit with a 15-point penalty for false accounting. The Bianconeri went from second to tenth place in the Serie A, making every single game from now on a must-win, at least if they want to qualify for a UEFA competition. According to the soccer lines, they shouldn’t have too much trouble defeating Monza, but the visitors haven’t lost in their last five games.

Let’s check the latest Serie A news, stats, injury reports, and Serie A lines for Juventus vs Monza. We’ve got plenty of Serie A picks for you to consider.

Juventus: For Honor

Players had nothing to do with the 15-point penalty, and they tried to put all that behind them by defeating Atalanta… and almost did. Last Sunday’s match finished 3-3. Angel Di Maria, Arkadiusz Milik and Danilo da Silva scored for the Bianconeri, who finished with eight shots on target, four more than Atalanta.

Prior to that, the Vecchia Signora defeated Monza 2-1 in the Round of 16 of the Coppa Italia with Moise Kean and Federico Chiesa as the scorers. In other words, the players remain focused on winning; the problem is that they’re no longer in the title race.

Even so, Juventus will always be a tough team to defeat. After all, the Bianconeri have allowed 15 goals in 19 games. Only Napoli, the team atop the standings, has allowed less with 14.

Offensively, Dusan Vlahovic remains out due to injury. Fortunately for them, Milik has stepped forward. He has scored six goals, the same as Vlahovic.

The Bianconeri are unbeaten when playing at home, thanks to a 7-3-0 record. No wonder they’re offering a -180 price in the sportsbook to win straight up despite all the controversy around them.

Monza: Non-Losing Streak

Believe it or not, Monza is one of three Serie A teams that haven’t lost in their last five games. AS Roma and Empoli are the other two. That non-losing streak allowed Monza to forget about the relegation zone and start focusing on getting into the top 10. Defeating Juventus could make that happen.

Most recently, it drew 1-1 to Sassuolo with Gian Marco Ferrari as the scorer. It controlled the game from start to end, winning possession with 62% and finishing with 14 shots in total, one more than the visitors.

The Biancorossi are 2-2-5 when playing on the road. They scored in five of those matches and finished with a clean sheet once. They defeated Cremonese 3-2 in their last road game, with Gianluca Caprari as Man of the Match after scoring a brace. Caprari is the team’s top scorer with four goals.

Besides being highly motivated due to their non-losing streak, the Biancorossi are offering a +575 price as a betting online underdog to win straight up.

  • Juventus Victories: 3 (5 goals)

These two met in September. Monza pulled off the stunner thanks to Christian Gytkjaer, who scored in the 74th minute. The Biancorossi dominated the game from start to end, winning possession with 61% and 17 shots in total, seven more than the Bianconeri. Playing with one more player since the last five minutes of the first half helped them a lot.

Juventus took revenge in the Round of 16 of the Coppa Italia by defeating Monza 2-1. No red cards this time for the Bianconeri, not even a yellow.

Juventus vs Monza Picks & Prediction

I wasn’t kidding about Monza being a good betting option as the game’s underdog, but Juventus being in a must-win situation after the 15-point penalty changes everything. Plus, the Biancorossi were crushed every time they faced a powerhouse on the road: 4-0 to Napoli, 4-1 to AC Milan and 3-0 to AS Roma. I don’t expect a blowout, but I do believe the Bianconeri will win by two goals, meaning you should include them at -1 in your soccer picks since the spread offers a better price.

Juventus are listed at -180 in our Serie A lines. This means that if you wager $100 on Juventus, you have a chance to win $56. The Monza are +525, offering a chance to win $525 on a $100 wager. The implied probability attached to the betting lines gives Juventusa 64.29% chance to win, with Monza at 16.00%.
