Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Bologna, 13th position with 6 points and a negative goal difference of -1
Monza, 15th position with 5 points and a negative goal difference of -3
Monza and Fiorentina ended the Serie A Week 6 game with a goalless draw on Thursday 28 September 2023 at the U-Power Stadium in Monza, Italy. From 28 September 2018 to 28 September 2023. Today Monza celebrates five years since Silvio Berlusconi’s arrival at the top of the Brianza club, protagonist in this period of time of an unprecedented escalation in the history of the club.
The two teams study and respect each other, perhaps too much. The pace is not very high and the opportunities worthy of note are few. Almost all of them arrive in the first half, in particular with Orsolini and Ciurria as protagonists. In the second half, many fouls, multiple yellow cards and even an expulsion in the 86th minute, that of AlexisSaelemaekers. The challenge ends accordingly with one point for each side.
In the next round, Monza will be guests of Sassuolo, while Bologna will have to face Empoli within friendly walls.
✅ Stats before the game: In the two matches played in the last championship, Monza and Bologna collected an away win each; in the match at the U-Power Stadium, Ferguson and Orsolini responded to Petagna’s advantage by reversing the result (2-1, 31 October 2022). Bologna could collect two away victories in the first two matches ever played at the home of a single opponent in Serie A for the first time since 1988 (vs Pisa). In the calendar year 2023, only Salernitana (13) drew more matches than Bologna and Monza in Serie A (11 each). After the 1-1 draw against Lecce, Monza could collect two home draws in a row in Serie A for the first time since last February (three in that case); the Brianza team (1W, 1D) could finish the first three home matches of this tournament unbeaten after having suffered 100% defeats in these matches in 2022/23, on their debut in the top flight. Bologna drew the first two away matches played in this Serie A, against Juventus and Verona, and could collect three away draws in a row in the tournament for the first time since May 2022. The Emilians do not share the stakes in each of the first three away games in a single season of the competition since 1989/90, with Luigi Maifredi on the bench. In the last Serie A, Monza obtained their first historic point in the competition on matchday six, against Lecce; this season he reaches the sixth matchday with already five points in the standings (1W, 2D). After clean sheets against Verona and Napoli (0-0 in both cases), Bologna could keep a clean sheet in three games in a row in Serie A for the first time since April 2019. The rossoblù, on the other hand, do not draw at least three matches in row in the tournament from December 2020-January 2021 (five in that case).
