Monza vs Torino Prediction

Monza, who replaced Alessandro Nesta with Salvatore Bocchetti earlier this year, appeared to turning a corner but have once again regressed with their 4-0 annihilation at the hands of Roma last week leaving them well adrift at the bottom-of-the-table in Serie A. In contrast, Torino are tucked in the middle-of-the-table and most recently defeated AC Milan by two goals to one at Stadio Grande Torino last weekend with away win the likeliest outcome for this one against such poor opposition.
