Stats for this game

Matchup Napoli VS Monza

Monza have made Napoli work

Napoli and Monza drew 0–0 at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on 29 December 2023 in Serie A. Monza created the clearest chance from a penalty, which Matteo Pessina missed, while goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio made several saves. The goalless result does not prove that Monza controlled every phase, but it does show how the visitors could resist Napoli’s home pressure. The meeting also carried enough competitive tension to produce several bookings and late chances.

Napoli can raise the attacking ceiling

On 7 April 2024, Napoli beat Monza 4–2 at the U-Power Stadium after Monza led through Milan Đurić. Victor Osimhen, Matteo Politano, Piotr Zieliński and Giacomo Raspadori supplied Napoli’s response, while Monza still scored twice. The two results create a useful balance: Monza can close the central routes and make the favourite search for precision, but Napoli can also turn an open game through individual quality. A future meeting will ask whether Monza preserve the compact resistance of Naples or whether Napoli force another contest into a higher-scoring shape.
