Kick-off: Sun 8 Nov, 2:00pm / Stadio Brianteo / Serie A (UK time)
Monza have struggled to build momentum across their past 10 fixtures, recording two victories, two draws, and six defeats. Defensive fragility has been a recurring theme, with the hosts managing just one clean sheet during this span while conceding an average of 2.2 goals per game.
Despite those defensive issues, Monza remain active in attack, averaging 1.8 goals scored per match alongside an average expected goals (xG) figure of 1.69.
Atalanta have experienced similar inconsistencies, picking up two wins, three draws, and five losses across their previous 10 matches. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in that period, conceding an average of 2.1 goals per match.
Going forward, the visitors maintain solid underlying numbers, generating an average xG of 2.01 while scoring an average of 1.6 goals per game across their last 10 outings.
Atalanta have dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning all five of the previous meetings between the clubs. Their most recent encounter in May 2025 resulted in a 4-0 away win for Atalanta at Stadio Brianteo.
Prior clashes also saw Atalanta claim victories by 2-0, 2-1, 3-0, and 5-2 scorelines, showing a clear trend of high-scoring scorelines in this match-up.
Given that both teams are conceding over two goals per match on average and neither has defended reliably in recent weeks, goals appear likely. Atalanta's historic dominance in this fixture is supported by an average xG of 2.01, making an open contest favoured by recent data. While Atalanta look more likely to take the points, Monza's scoring rate of 1.8 goals per match suggests chances at both ends.
