Monza vs Sudtirol Prediction and Betting Tips | August 9th 2024

Monza will invite Sudtirol to Stadio Brianteo in the Coppa Italia first round on Friday. Both teams were eliminated from the first round of the competition last season and will look to improve upon that record.

The hosts concluded their 2023-24 campaign on a nine-game winless streak and will look their get their 2024-25 season underway with a win. They fell to a 1-0 loss to Palermo in their first pre-season friendly but bounced back from that loss and went unbeaten in their next three games. Goals from Mirko Marić and Pablo Mari helped them play out a 2-2 draw against Sassuolo last week.

The visitors will also play their first competitive match of the season here. They concluded the pre-season with meetings against Bologna and Bochum in a triangular friendly, recording a 2-0 win over Bochum while suffering a 1-0 loss to Bologna.

Monza vs Sudtirol Prediction

The Brianzoli have suffered back-to-back losses in their last three competitive games, failing to score in two. They have just one win in their last six home games and have a winless home record in this fixture, which is a cause for concern.

Südtiroler have just one win in their last six games in the Coppa Italia, scoring just five goals in that period. While they have the upper hand in this fixture, they are winless in their last three games against the hosts.

There is nothing much to separate the two teams here and as they are playing their first competitive match of the season, they might be a bit rusty. Considering the home advantage for Monza and their better squad quality, the hosts are expected to eke out a narrow win.
