On the back of their jubilant victory over Porto in the Europa League, the high-flying Lazio head north as they look to add more misery upon the struggling Monza.
The Serie A clash between Monza and Lazio kicks off at 18:00 local time on Sunday, November 10 at the U-Power Stadium in Brianza.

With only a single victory since the start of the season, a superior goal difference over Venezia is the only thing separating Monza from the very bottom of the Serie A table. The team that presented itself as a genuine thorn in the side of the big teams over the last couple of campaigns has become a shadow of its former self.
In fairness, Alessandro Nesta has been incredibly unlucky this term, as his team arguably deserved to collect more points, but just didn’t have fortune on their side. For instance, the Biancorossi felt they had scored a legitimate opener against Milan last weekend, but it was ruled out following a VAR check due to an alleged foul in the buildup.
After earning nine wins out of their last 10 contests across all competitions, Lazio are no longer flying under the radar, but have now cemented themselves as a legitimate contender for a Champions League spot. Marco Baroni’s men start the weekend in fifth place, on par on points with Atalanta and Fiorentina ahead of them.
Hence, the Italian capital side will enter the clash as the big favorite to prevail. The Biancocelesti will be hellbent on extending their golden run, even if it could cost their legend Nesta his job.
