EPLPrediction: Monza VS AC Milan 2025-05-24
The final match of the Serie A season, and what a way to end it - with a clash between 9th-placed AC Milan and relegated Monza. I mean, who doesn't love a good "we're already on vacation" vs "we're just happy to be done with this nightmare" matchup?
But seriously, Milan has a decent record against Monza, winning 4 out of their last 5 matches, including two wins at home in San Siro. However, they'll be without Santiago Gimenez, who's suspended after being sent off in the previous match. Monza, on the other hand, has had a disastrous season, winning only three games out of 20, and will be missing several players due to injuries and suspensions.
The odds are heavily in favor of Milan, with Bovada listing them at 1.26 to win, while Monza is at 9.0. The spread is around -1.75 for Milan, with the over/under set at 3.5.
My best bet for this match? AC Milan to win with a handicap of -1.75 at 1.87 (Bovada). I mean, come on, Monza has been relegated for a reason, and Milan, despite their disappointing season, should be able to take care of business at home. The -1.75 handicap gives us a bit of insurance in case Milan doesn't completely blow out Monza, but I still think they'll win by at least two goals.
As for the total, I'd lean towards the over 3.5 at 1.89 (Bovada), but only because I think Milan will score a few goals, and Monza might sneak one in as well. However, the under 3.5 at 1.93 is also tempting, given Monza's struggles to score all season.
In any case, this match should be a formality for Milan, and I expect them to end the season on a positive note in front of their fans. Now, let's just hope the Ultras don't get too rowdy and leave the stadium after 15 minutes...
