Udinese vs Monza

Monza returned to winning ways after 15 games without a win (D2, L13) in Serie A; the Brianza team had not won in the league since January 13 (2-1 vs Fiorentina).

After 10 consecutive away defeats in this Serie A, Monza obtained their second away win in the current tournament, after the 0-3 against Hellas Verona on October 21.

Monza won their first league match against Udinese since December 10, 1978: in that case 1-0 in Brianza in Serie B.

Udinese are unbeaten in their last five matches against Monza in Serie A (W2 D3); only against Pescara (eight), Alessandria (six) and Pisa (six) the Bianconeri have played more games without losing in the competition.

Udinese and Monza have both drawn of the Bianconeri's home games in Serie A: 2-2 in April 2023, 0-0 in February 2024 – against no team have the Brianzoli drawn three away matches in the competition so far.

After a run of five defeats in a row, Udinese have earned four points in their last two Serie A games; the Bianconeri have failed to score in five of their last seven matches: as many as they did in their previous 23 league meetings.

Udinese have failed to score in their last three Serie A home games (D1 L2) and they could fail to find the net for more successive matches on home soil in a single top-flight season for the first time since 1993/94 (five between October and January).

Monza have picked up 15 points in 35 league games; the last team to end a Serie A season with 15 or fewer points was Ancona in 2003/04 (13). In a 20-team top-flight season it would be a negative record (currently Salernitana with 17 in 2023/24).
