The action continues in round 24 of the Italian Serie A as Monza and Hellas Verona go head to head at the Brianteo Stadium on Sunday.
Raffaele Palladino’s Monza head into the weekend unbeaten in the last three top-flight meetings between the two teams and will be looking to extend this impressive run.
Monza were denied successive wins for the first time since October as they played out a goalless draw with Udinese at the Bluenergy Stadium last Saturday.
This came after their hard-fought 1-0 victory over Sassuolo on January 28, which saw their run of two back-to-back defeats come to an end.
With 29 points from 23 matches, Monza are currently 12th in the Serie A table, level on points with 11th-placed Genoa.
Hellas Verona, on the other hand, failed to pull clear of the danger zone as they suffered a 2-1 defeat against Napoli last Sunday.
Marco Baroni’s men have now gone three consecutive matches without a win — picking up one point from a possible nine — and have won just one of their last six matches since December.
With 18 points from 23 matches, Hellas Verona are currently 18th in the league standings, one point below Udinese, who sit just above the relegation zone.
