Monza – AS Roma

Match analysis

Monza travel to the Stadio Brianteo as the 18th‑placed side, still stranded on a single point from one draw and three defeats while conceding 11 goals, look to snap a miserable start to the campaign. Their opponents, AS Roma, sit second on nine points after winning all three of their opening fixtures and boasting a tidy 10‑1 goal difference. The stark contrast in form makes this a classic David‑versus‑Goliath encounter, with Monza hoping to turn the tide against a Roma side that have yet to taste a draw or loss. If the Italians maintain their defensive solidity, the match could prove a stern test for the host’s fragile defence, while any slip‑up from Roma might offer Monza a lifeline in the relegation battle.
