AC Milan will be aiming to keep the pressure on the Serie A leaders when they travel to face Monza on Sunday evening. The hosts are currently in 11th place in the league standings, while the visitors are third. Monza are having another steady campaign, currently in the exact same spot they ended last term. I Biancorossi played out a 0-0 draw last weekend at home to Verona, which followed another stalemate on the road against Udinese a week earlier. That leaves them on 30 points after 24 league games, three points behind Torino, who round out the top half, and eight points behind sixth-placed Roma. At home this season, Monza have accumulated 17 points (W4 D5 L3) from a potential 36 in 12 Serie A matches. When these sides met back in December, Monza were no match for Milan and suffered a 3-0 loss. As a result, they are the clear underdogs heading into this one. 

Meanwhile, with Juventus stuttering lately, AC Milan have cut the gap to the top two to a single point while widening their advantage over fourth-placed Atalanta to ten points. They will come into this weekend’s fixture with their tails up following a commanding 3-0 win over Rennes in the Europa League which extended their recent unbeaten run to six matches in all competitions, including five wins. In league terms, Milan have not lost any of their last nine games and scored two or more goals in seven matches during that time. They are also on a three-match winning streak on the road and scored three goals in each of those games. The visitors have won their last three matches against this opponent and have outscored them 8-1 during their winning streak.
