Lazio vs Monza, in a bid to stay in fourth place

Lazio welcome Monza as they look to secure fourth place. The Brianzoli, in last place, are desperate to move up the table.

Lazio will host Monza at the Stadio Olimpico at 15:00 CET. Marco Baroni’s team, off of their most recent win against Cagliari are looking to win two in a row to stay clear of opposition trying to claim their position. Monza also need to win, as they are currently sat last on 13 points, to get closer to safety.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

Lazio are unbeaten in their five Serie A matches against Monza (W3 D2); only against five teams, none of which are currently in Serie A, have the Biancocelesti played more games in the competition without losing (Frosinone, Mantova, Reggiana, Sampierdarenese and Spezia). Lazio haven’t won any of their last six home games against Lombardy opponents in Serie A (D3 L3); the last time the Biancocelesti recorded a longer streak against these sides was back between January 1985 and January 1990 (nine).

DID YOU KNOW?

Lazio haven’t won any of their last four home league games (D2 L2), after five home wins in a row beforehand; the Biancocelesti last had a longer run back in 2016 (five). Since the beginning of December 2024, Monza have lost eight of their nine games in Serie A (W1). Across the Big-5 European leagues, only Southampton (nine defeats) have lost more matches in this period. Lazio have scored 98% of their goals from inside the box in Serie A this season (39/40). Across the big five European leagues, only Le Havre, Bochum, Southampton and Mallorca have a higher percentage (100%).

PLAYERS

Valentín Castellanos has scored eight goals in 20 appearances in the current league season, twice as many as in 35 games of the previous Serie A season in 2023/24 – with one goal here, he will equal his total in LaLiga (12 vs 13), which he managed in a single campaign. Mattia Zaccagni has already scored one more goal this season than he did last term in Serie A (seven in 2024/24 vs six in 2023/24); he is one of only five Italians to have exceeded five goals in both this and the previous campaign (with Orsolini, Retegui, Lucca and Pinamonti). Dany Mota has scored four goals in the current league season and is close to equalling his Serie A record (five goals in 2022/23); however, the Monza striker hasn’t netted in his last 12 league games, after scoring four goals in his previous four.

DISCIPLINE

Suspended: none Cautioned: Isaksen, Belahyane, Rovella, Baroni (Lazio); Izzo, Pedro Pereira, Carboni, Kyriakopoulos (Monza)
