History was made last weekend, as Napoli ended their long wait for a top-flight Italian title. They will be hoping to continue the party in Monza this weekend, as they bid to pick up a second straight win in Serie A.
Serie A Preview
It has been a busy week of celebrations in Naples, as Napoli have been celebrating their first league title in over 33 years. There is still a job to finish for Napoli though, as there are four matches remaining of the season. They could stretch their advantage this weekend with a second straight win. Their overall form in recent weeks has been slightly inconsistent, as they have registered just two victories across their previous five.
But, their away record has been incredibly consistent throughout the season. Napoli has won 14 of their 17 matches on the road this term, and they could hit 15 wins on the road for the first time in history. Only two previous teams have been able to hit that benchmark of away victories, with Inter achieving the feat in 2006-07, and AC Milan matching the feat in 2020-21.
It is also job done for Monza this season, as they have already secured their status in the top-flight. That would have been their main aim at the start of the season, with many experts expecting them to struggle in the top flight. But, they have won 12 of their 34 games this term, and have suffered just 12 defeats.
Monza also remain in the hunt for an eighth-place finish in the standings, and they could move up to that spot with a victory on Sunday. Their recent record is incredibly strong, as they have lost just once across their previous ten, which is the fewest defeats of any side in Serie A over the same period.
Monza vs Napoli Head to Head
Monza has won just once in seven previous matches against Napoli in the league. That victory was achieved back in 1999 when both sides were playing in Serie B. However, Napoli is unbeaten against Monza in the league in away fixtures.
Monza vs Napoli Prediction
Both of these sides have been entertaining to watch throughout the season, and that should make for an engaging fixture this weekend. But, Napoli’s away record this term is impossible to ignore, and that form is boosted by the fact that they are unbeaten away from home against Monza.
