Best Tip: Monza to win

A Serie B win on home turf for Paolo Bianco's Monza side win in the win / draw / win market is our prediction. Stats suggest they're in strong form across a number of key metrics, and they should have too much for their visitors. The odds from the bookies suggest the same, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A Monza win is the bet we'd suggest, but we wouldn't expect a whitewash.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Monza are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 63% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 1.65.
