Key Players to Watch in Monza vs Inter Milan
Pablo Mari (Monza)
The veteran defender is like a wall for the AC Monza side. He needs to perform his clean tackles, ball distribution, and blocking well. He was a pivot in the defense for the last three games, especially instrumental in the campaign opener against Empoli.
Marcus Thuram (Inter Milan)
The French striker has already scored four and assisted two goals. His contribution to the team in the concerned league is unthinkable. As he has 75% goal participation. Marcus Thuram will look to score big in this match and have an eye early on the highest goal-scored charts, which he already is leading.
Monza vs Inter Milan Prediction
Expectations of dominance from visitors to Inter Milan are high. The defending champions will be looking for a goal-fest here, after especially looking at the not-so-strong Monza side. Inter Milan with a full squad and records of their success will look to increase their Goal difference tally as much as they want.
