Monza, another battle for survival: the goal is to do an encore with Venezia

There is a fixed idea in the head of the Monza. And that is to try to win at home with Venice the second direct clash in a row for salvation. It would be the best way to continue the success achieved with Verona and take the first, decisive step forward in the standings. The objective is within reach, also because beyond the triumph over Hellas the team has shown clear signs of improvement from various points of view: tactical, technical, character. In fact, Monza has achieved its own precise identity, plays effectively and, especially in recent weeks, has managed to make the most of its strengths. Among these are the experience of its most representative players and the quality of a couple of individuals who can raise the level beyond the ordinary.

Separate chapter He deserves it Mota Carvalho. At the moment he is Monza’s extra man. Partly because of the goals he scored, which were all very heavy. A little more because with his inventions, his ideas and his never banal plays he managed to guarantee Monza an extra step especially in key moments. Someone like this makes a difference in the long run, but also in the short term. Compared to previous years, it has finally found the right continuity. Physically, after having gotten over some ailments, he is fine, his performances are growing. It can (and must) be the year of a definitive consecration.

Choices Starting from the assumption that Venezia is within reach but should not be underestimated at all, the idea of Alessandro Nesta is to change little compared to the Verona challenge. The only doubt is linked to the presence of Daniel Maldini. If he recovers he will go to the bench and perhaps be used in the running. Alongside Mota Carvalho in the attacking midfield there will be Caprari, the duo who will have the task of supporting Djuric. In midfield and defense no changes on the horizon.
