Their recent defeats include a 2-0 loss to Juventus, a 1-0 home defeat against Napoli, and a narrow 1-0 loss away to Venezia. In these matches, Monza failed to score, highlighting their offensive woes. Their average of 0.4 goals scored per game and no clean sheets in the last five matches further underscore their challenges. On the other hand, Atalanta appears in fine form.

Atalanta's current form and offensive strength give them a significant edge over Monza, as reflected in the predicted outcome. Monza's inability to score and their leaky defense will be critical issues, making it difficult for them to challenge Atalanta. A key factor to watch during the game will be Atalanta's attacking display, which could translate into a high-scoring affair, consistent with the predicted over 2.5 goals outcome.
