Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Sassuolo, 15th position with 19 points and a negative goal difference of -10
Monza, 12th position with 25 points and a negative goal difference of -8
Monza won the Serie A Week 22 game on Sunday 28 January 2024 at the U-Power Stadium in Monza, Italy. Monza regained victory after two consecutive defeats with 8 goals conceded and just 1 scored. A goal arrived today too, but it was enough to defeat Sassuolo. Clean sheet for Di Gregorio and return to scoring for Andrea Colpani who gives three fundamental points to Monza. Sassuolo, however, collapsed again, this time bereft of Berardi and with Pinamonti and Laurientè far from incisive.
In the next round, Monza will face Udinese, while Sassuolo will be guests of Bologna.
Monza took the lead in the 30th minute. Andrea Colpani defeated Sassuolo goalkeeper Andrea Consigli with a left-footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Dany Mota.

✅ Stats before the game: Monza is only one of the two teams, together with Livorno (two defeats out of two), against which Sassuolo has never won in Serie A: two Brianza victories and a draw in three previous matches in the top division. Sassuolo have lost five of their last six matches against Lombard teams in Serie A (including two defeats against Monza): the only exception is the 2-1 victory at Inter in the current tournament (27 September). Monza have lost three of their last four league games at the U-Power Stadium (W1), as many defeats as in their previous 19 home games (W7, D9). The Brianza team could also lose three home matches in a row for only the second time in Serie A (after the first three home matches ever in the tournament, between August and September 2022). Sassuolo has gained 19 points in 20 matches in this championship, only in their first Serie A season had the neroverdi obtained fewer points after 20 seasonal matches (17 in that case, in 2013/14). Sassuolo has not scored in their last two league away games (against Milan and Juventus), only once in Serie A have the neroverdi recorded a longer streak without goals away from home (three matches between October and November 2022).
👉 Lineup MONZA (3-4-2-1) : Di Gregorio – D’Ambrosio, Marì, Caldirola – Birindelli, Pessina, Akpa Akpro, Ciurria – Colpani, Carboni – Mota.
👉 Lineup SASSUOLO (4-2-3-1): Consigli – Pedersen, Ferrari, Tressoldi, Doig – Boloca, Matheus Henrique – Castillejo, Thorstvedt, Laurientè – Pinamonti.
