Cagey, cagey, cagey game
SSD Monza 1912 and Cagliari's Serie A 2026-2027 head-to-head record is 2 and 0 in favour of the Sardinians, who last took 3 points in a 3-0 away win in Serie A 2024/2025. The Biancorossi will be out to change the tide on Monday evening when they welcome Fabio Pisacane's Rossoblù to the Stadio Brianteo.
Monza have won one and lost one of their two home fixtures in Serie A 2026/2027, scoring 2.00 and conceding 2.00 goals per-game at home, while Cagliari have taken all 3 of their away points with 4 goals scored. Ivan Juric's side have been pressing hard and fast, and they've been fast and direct on the counter when they've been able to break. The Biancorossi have been on the right side of a 2-1 scoreline in a home win over Sassuolo (2-1), but couldn't follow up with a 2-2 away draw against Stade Brestois 29.
Cagliari have played well in each of their three away fixtures so far in Serie A 2026-2027, securing 3 wins from 3. Their last three results have been away victories over Atalanta Bergamo and Udinese and a 1-1 home draw with Juventus. Pisacane's team are built to absorb pressure and play on the break, so this should be an interesting tactical battle with Monza looking to create chaos and Cagliari hoping to absorb the pressure and strike in the gaps.
Under 2.5 goals at 1.7 is the main selection
Gustavo Varela is Monza's danger man, he's their leading marksman in Serie A 2026-2027 with 4 goals in 4 games. Daniel Maldini is Cagliari's finisher, 3 in 5, and Michel Ndary Adopo has kept the supply lines flowing with 2 assists.
This is an awkward game to call, Cagliari are in better form and seem to be playing with more confidence. They are the more likely winner but there is enough evidence to suggest that this will be a tight affair, with Monza's home crowd likely to push them to the limit. The odds reflect this, with Monza 2.28, Draw 3.15 and Cagliari 3.2.
Under 2.5 goals is our main selection at 1.7, both teams to score priced close and if it were 2/1, we'd be tempted to add that on the side. Cagliari are a solid team, well organised and have been ruthless on their travels in Serie A 2026/2027, so it seems unlikely that the match will see that many goals.
