Italian Serie A picks for Monza vs. Inter Milan

Before you tune in to Saturday's match, you need to see the Italian Serie A picks from betting expert Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than five years. Sutton finished 2022 as SportsLine's top soccer expert with a 165-130-2 mark, returning nearly $2,200 for $100 players. He also excelled in Serie A with a 63-39-1 mark, returning nearly $1,600.

For Inter Milan vs. Monza, Sutton is picking Inter to win with a -1.5 handicap for a +105 payout. Monza was able to pull off a 1-0 win at the San Siro last April, but that was at a time Inter was playing was playing a packed schedule including the Champions League and the Coppa Italia. The Nerazzurri will be well-rested for Saturday's match and are coming in hot after outscoring their preseason opponents 12-7.

Monza also gave up seven shots on target in their previous match. That could spell trouble going up against Lautaro Martinez, who scored a brace in Inter's last match and looks he could be one of Serie A's top scorers again this season.

"Martinez is Inter's attacking focal point with Romelu Lukaku and Edin Dzeko no longer with the team, and I expect he'll find the back of the net against this leaky Monza backline," Sutton told SportsLine. Stream the game here.
