Cagliari beat Monza 3-0 in their last meeting back in March of last year, and before that they also won away 2-1, but the Monza taking the field now is quite different from then. They lost their most recent league match and are still without a win in three straight. Monza score consistently but their defence leaks badly, conceding 15 goals in 6 league matches. Their last home game alone they shipped 3. Cagliari, meanwhile, arrive in clearly more stable shape, unbeaten in 4 straight, and across the season they have conceded only 3 goals in 6 matches. That tight defence is what keeps them in the upper half of the table. This game will likely see Monza with more of the ball and trying to open things up, but Cagliari are good at sitting deep and waiting to counter, a formula that worked in the last two meetings. If Monza keep conceding as easily as before, the game trends toward a result where the hosts do not win.
