Monza vs. Fiorentina: Predictions and Betting Tips
Analyzing the odds in the betting market for the Monza vs. Fiorentina encounter, the home team Monza has odds of +170 to win the match at bet365, while Fiorentina has odds of +155 for moneyline. For the main betting line on the final result, my suggestion is for bettors to stay away. Instead, I recommend taking the Under Goals line, considering it’s a closely contested match, especially with Fiorentina missing some key players. These teams have demonstrated low-scoring results so far, relying more on possession and capitalizing on opponents’ mistakes than on offensive play. Take the Under 2.5 goals line with odds at -137 at bet365.
- Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals odds -137
