It's too early to say what's going on with Monza, as they've only played two matches with Salvatore Bocchetti in charge. But it's clear that the team has lost to some of their competitors in the fight for survival. First, they lost 1:2 to Parma, and then 1:2 at home to Cagliari. It's worth mentioning that in both of these matches, Monza didn't finish the game with complete lineup, as they got red cards. So, the hosts have actually got worse in the league. Bocchetti's team has only earned 10 points in 19 matches, but they're already 9 points behind the 17th place team. The interesting thing is that, according to the expected points statistic, Monza is 9.65 points off the pace - the most in the current league.
Fiorentina
The Violets are losing their way, currently riding winless streak in all tournaments. Raffaele Palladino's team drew with Portuguese club Vitoria in the Conference League, having already qualified for the playoffs. In the league, Fiorentina has failed three of their last four matches. In the away game with Juventus, the Violets were close to losing, but the score stopped at 2:2 at the very end, at 87 minutes. In the previous round, the visitors had one of their worst matches of the season, losing to Napoli at home 0:3. Fiorentina is now sixth in the standings, four points behind the Champions League spots.
H2H Meetings

Expert Betting Tips
Monza keeps losing matches, but Fiorentina only gained one point in the last four rounds. Also, the Whites and Reds are the underdogs, according to the expected points statistics. So, we'd advise against betting on the outcome here, but it's a good idea to take a bet on goals, which has worked out in the last seven Monza games. We can expect one of the teams to score twice, given that the last five matches of the hosts ended with 1:2.
