Monza 2026/27 Serie A Preview
Monza are back in Serie A and have found the going hard. Ivan Juric’s side have won once in five – 2-1 at home to Sassuolo – and have conceded 12 goals, including four at Internazionale and three each against Udinese and Lecce.
Gustavo Varela has been the bright spot with four of the eight goals, including a converted penalty. Andrea Colpani and Samuele Birindelli share the corners with eight apiece. The goalkeeping position has rotated across the opening five games.
Promotion at the first attempt was the achievement; staying up is a different task. Eight goals in five is a perfectly respectable attacking return for a promoted side, and Varela’s form is the main reason Monza are not already cut adrift. The defending needs to improve quickly.
