Monza hosts Cittadella in the second leg of the Italian Serie B playoffs semifinals. The match will be played on Thursday, May 20th at Brianteo (Monza)
The experts expected Monza’s quick promotion to Serie A. After all, the bosses invested in the team and invited former world stars. At first, the White and Reds could not get into the elite directly, taking the third place in the championship. And now Monza is on the verge of being eliminated from the playoffs. The reason for the fiasco in the first match was a failed start — Monza was losing 0-2 by the middle of the first half. Everything goes to the fact that Berlusconi and his partners will have to endure another season before returning to the strongest Italian division.

For Cittadella, participation in the playoffs is almost a standard procedure, but the team has not yet managed to win the coveted ticket. Now the club is very close to the dream, as it is already one foot in the final of this mini-tournament. Cittadella played the first match better than expected, and such a confident victory allows it to feel comfortable in the second leg. But even in such a situation, one cannot relax.
Monza completely failed the first leg and lost with a 3-0 score. The White and Reds looked good in terms of the game, but the score was catastrophic for them. The hero of the meeting was Cittadella midfielder Enrico Baldini, who scored a hat trick. The intrigue in this confrontation is practically killed, and it is hard to believe that Monza will repeat the feat of Liverpool against Barcelona in a similar situation. Whatever one may say, but the hosts must fight to the end. It is for this reason that the White and Reds should fly forward from the first minutes. We believe that the opponents will please us with spectacular football, so we recommend betting on Over 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
