Inter Milan vs Monza Predictions
Inter have the numbers to shut Monza out
Inter are unbeaten in 12 matches, with seven victories during that run, as they begin their Serie A title defence at San Siro. They finished 11 points clear of Napoli last season and now start their first league campaign under Cristian Chivu after Simone Inzaghi's departure.
John Stones, Djed Spence and Aleksandar Stankovic have strengthened a side that already won the Scudetto, while Monza have managed only two victories in their last seven away matches.
Monza did open their campaign with a 3-0 victory over second-tier Avellino after winning promotion through the playoffs. A trip to the champions represents a very different assignment, particularly given Ivan Juric's record in this fixture.
Teams managed by Juric have lost 12 of 15 meetings with Inter and won only once. His sides have also suffered five successive defeats to nil against the Nerazzurri across his spells with Torino and Roma. With that record behind the Monza manager, I’m backing Inter Milan To Win To Nil at 1.87.

Inter's scoring run makes 3-0 appealing
Inter scored 28 goals across their final ten matches of the 2025-26 season, giving their opening home fixture a strong recent scoring reference. Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram remain among the attacking options available to Cristian Chivu.
The result side also has plenty behind it. Inter have avoided defeat in 12 consecutive games and won seven of them, while Monza have taken only two wins from their last seven away matches.
Juric's history against Inter is another notable marker. His teams have lost 12 of 15 meetings with the Nerazzurri, including five straight defeats without scoring.
Inter's 28 goals in ten matches provide the scoring weight, while those five successive shutout defeats for Juric's sides offer a specific result comparison. Inter Milan 3-0 could be worth a look at 7.00.
