AC Monza - Frosinone predictions and free betting tips [19/05/2024]

On Sunday, 19 May, in the framework of the 37th round of the Italian Serie A, "Monza" will host "Frosinone". The lacklustre season finish from the Biancorossi gives the Canaries hope for a much-needed victory, as the guests are ahead of 18th-placed "Empoli" only by goal difference.

Stadium

The match will take place in Monza at the Brianteo Stadium.

"Monza"

In their second Serie A season, "Monza" managed to secure their place in the top division once again. The Lombardy-based team currently occupies the 12th spot in the standings with 45 points from 36 matches, falling just short of contending for the European spots. The Biancorossi cannot drop below 12th place, with "Lecce" trailing Palladino’s side by eight points. In recent weeks, the hosts have not been able to secure a win since returning from the international break in March (3 draws and 4 losses).

They split points with "Lecce" (1-1) and "Lazio" (2-2), but last Monday, "Monza" fell to "Fiorentina" (2-1). Milan Djurić put the white and reds ahead early in the match, but "La Viola" turned the game around thanks to efforts from Gonzalez and Arthur Melo. It is important to note that "Monza" ranks only 13th in the overall standings for points accumulated at home (24 in 18 home fixtures, 23 goals scored, 25 conceded). 

"Frosinone"

Having returned to the top division last summer, "Frosinone" is expectedly fighting to avoid relegation. With 2 rounds remaining in the national championship, the Canaries sit in the 17th spot in the Serie A standings, sharing the same number of points as the trailing "Empoli". The team recently ended a 12-match winless streak (6 draws and 6 losses) by beating struggling "Salernitana" 3-0.

They then drew 0-0 with direct survival competitor "Empoli" and last weekend suffered a heavy defeat at home to "Inter" (0-5). It's worth mentioning that the yellow and blues are the absolute worst team in the Serie A for performances on the road (7 points in 18 away fixtures, 15 goals scored, 37 conceded). Canaries fans will be pleased that their favourites have managed to keep a clean sheet four times in the last six rounds. 

Head-to-Head

The first-round duel ended with a thrilling victory for "Monza" away with a score of 2-3. Furthermore, the guests have never beaten the Biancorossi at their home ground.

Match Prediction: "Monza" vs "Frosinone"

Apart from the defeat to "Inter", "Frosinone" has looked decent in recent weeks. Nonetheless, wins come hard for Di Francesco's men, and their away form concerns their supporters. "Monza" is winding down the season without much motivation but intends to bid farewell to their fans in the final home match of the championship. My prediction is a draw.

Total Prediction

In the last five head-to-head encounters, these teams have always exchanged goals. There is every reason to believe it will be the same this time around.

Corner Prediction

"Frosinone" is motivated by the survival battle and will be forced to attack. I predict the Canaries will have an Individual Total Over 4.5 corners.

Yellow Cards Prediction

Neither team is particularly known for excessive rough play, averaging only 2 yellow cards per game. I predict a Total Under 4.5 yellow cards.

Score Prediction

I predict a final score of 1-1.
