Premium Tips
Monza’s red-hot striker, plus goals at both ends with an Atalanta win.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Gustavo Varela to score anytime | 7/4 (Ladbrokes) | Gustavo Varela tops the Serie A scoring charts with nine goals in nine appearances. He has scored in seven of those games, and he has found the net in each of Monza’s last four matches. Moreover, he takes penalties, converting from the spot against Sassuolo and Bologna. Atalanta have conceded in nine of their 10 league games and kept just one clean sheet. Varela is named in Monza’s predicted XI, and he has 12 shots on target from 23 attempts. Ladbrokes’ 7/4 underrates a striker in this sort of form. |
| Atalanta to win and both teams to score | 5/2 (Paddy Power) | Atalanta are winless in four, but this fixture has been one-way traffic. They have won the last six meetings with Monza, scoring 18 goals. Meanwhile, Monza have lost their last three league games and conceded in nine of 10. Yet the hosts have scored in every league match this season, so a home goal looks likely too. Atalanta have also scored in eight of their 10 games, with Nikola Krstovic on six goals. Paddy Power’s 5/2 covers an away win in an open game. |

How Monza go into the game
Stuck in 18th on seven points, Monza are in real trouble near the foot of the table. They have won two, drawn one and lost seven of their 10 Serie A games. Last time out, they lost 2-1 at Bologna on 31 October, with Gustavo Varela scoring from the penalty spot.
That was a third straight defeat, after a 3-2 loss at Torino and a 4-1 home thrashing by Napoli. Before that run, Monza had beaten Cagliari 4-0 at the U-Power Stadium. Their home record shows two wins and two defeats, and they have conceded 24 league goals overall.
Goals have not been the problem, though. Monza have scored in all 10 league matches, and Varela has nine of their 17 goals. Jay Robinson is next with two, while Samuele Birindelli has started every game and has 14 shots. Michael Folorunsho is listed among the absentees for this one.
How Atalanta go into the game
Atalanta sit 13th on 11 points, a poor return from three wins, two draws and five defeats. They are winless in four league games, losing 3-2 at Milan and drawing 4-4 with Frosinone and 2-2 at Fiorentina. Last time out, they were beaten 3-0 at home by Parma on 2 November.
Away from home, the picture is worse. Atalanta have yet to win on the road this season, with three defeats and one draw from four trips. They have conceded 20 league goals and kept only one clean sheet, against Bologna in August. Still, they have scored in eight of their 10 league matches.
In attack, Nikola Krstovic leads the way with six league goals from just six starts. Charles De Ketelaere has three assists. However, Raspadori and Gaetano are both listed as absent, while Franck Kessie is a doubt.
