Monza only scored a 2-1 surprise victory in the third win of the season and its first win since January, thanks to a goal against Lorenzo Lucca's Udinese in Sunday's match.
After the last 2-1 win over Cagliari, Kosta Runjaic made a change to his starting XI, replacing Martin Payero with Sando Lovric. Alessandro Nesta made three changes, swapping Arvid Brorsson, Andrea Carboni and Omari Forson for Luca Caldirola, Tomasa Palacios and Dany Mota.

Hassane Kamara paired with acrobatic scissors kicks, and Oumar’s brothers offered Udinese the best chance for the first half after a neat one-two on the edge of the six-yard box and Keinan Davis.
Forson proposed Monza's only attempt in the first half, which was not a goal, which meant both sides were at a 0-0 interval level.
In the race, the 20th visitor stole the lead shortly after restarting.
Samuele Birindelli took the ball down the right wing and drove into the area, almost finding the bottom corner. Finally, he bumped into the woodwork, but Caprari slipped in and tied up the rebound.
It seems Caprari's follow-up stands out from his arm, but the lengthy var comments didn't overturn the scene decision, while the goal was scored by.
The second half, Lucca attracted the host level, almost putting them ahead a few minutes ago.
Karlstrom sent a long ball on the top, and Lucca waited patiently, allowing several bounces in the area, and then slammed the effort from the right side of the box to the right side of the box.
Ciurria sent an attractive cross from the left, and Kevin Zeroli popped up a picture, which drove Keita Balde home within the pointed range of the six-yard box for a rare Monza victory.
