Lazio take on the visitors Monza in the round 14 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Thursday, November 10th at Stadio Olimpico (Rome).
Lazio successfully parted ways with the Europa League, losing last Thursday to Feyenoord. True, in this incredible group, where everyone collected 8 points, the Italians could not completely get rid of the international load. They overtook Sturm in terms of additional indicators, and in 2023 they will be diverted to the Conference League. But, of course, European cups are not a priority for Maurizio Sarri (although with Chelsea, in the Europa League, he took his first “big” title). The main goal of the capital's Eagles is to return to Calcio in the top 4, in the Champions League quartet. There is still a fight ahead. Moreover, after the victory on the road over a direct competitor, Atalanta, there was a defeat in Rome to Salernitana. And then there was a key confrontation, the “Capitol derby” with Roma. In a difficult struggle, victory was earned. It turned out to take advantage of the roughest mistake of the opponent's defender and score the only goal.

Monza have attracted increased attention in the last couple of years. The reason is simple: Silvio Berlusconi, an eccentric politician and millionaire known as the successful owner of AC Milan for many years, switched to them. Not without problems (only through play-offs), but the White-Reds quickly made their way to Serie A. Before debuting at a new level, the team was updated with a number of well-known players and even stars in their prime... And failed the starting segment. This resulted in the dismissal of Stroppa and an unexpected bet on the still young Palladino as a coach. But Rafaele started in a new role perfectly. There was a wonderful stretch in the championship, with 10 points in 4 rounds, including a victory over Juventus. And then they went in the Udinese cup shootout - 3-2 in Friuli. However, the momentum in Calcio was quickly lost. And it was not possible to score points not only with Milan, but also with the more modest Empoli and Bologna. And in the last round, Verona confidently defeated them, 2-0.
The only official match between the clubs was held in 2006, and then in the cup. Then the parties exchanged goals, and only on penalties Lazio went further. Bookmakers are confident in the victory of Lazio. It is unlikely that Monza will offer a battle in Rome, fighting back, so it’s worth looking at the option with “-1 goal” for the hosts.
Prediction for the match: Lazio to win with -1.0 handicap.
