In the summer, Raffaele Palladino left the team and the "Biancrossi" will enter the new season under the leadership of Alessandro Nesta. There are a number of personnel losses - Michele Di Gregorio moved to Juventus, Andrea Colpani left for Fiorentina.

In the Italian Cup last week, Monza beat Südtirol on penalties.

Tip and bets

1.75Handicap (0) on Empoli

"Empoli" looked very solid in the Cup against "Catanzaro" - won 4:1, could have scored more. Today "azzurri" will probably also be maximally aggressive and charged for victory, "Monza" is far from being in the best form and has a number of personnel losses. In the last two home matches "Empoli" beat "Monza", the series will probably continue.

We believe that the hosts have a better chance of winning. Betting Tip - Asian handicap (0) on Empoli . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.75

Bet on total

Empoli are traditionally strong at home and will probably play openly, only to win. It is unlikely that Monza has a chance to stay clean today, but at the same time the Biancorossi are unlikely to only defend, and the visitors know how to play on the counterattack - they are quite capable of finding their moment and realizing it.

Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.85
