Milano vs Monaco Prediction and Picks: Road Win Backed
- Selection: Monaco moneyline
- Best Odds: 1.95
- Bookmaker: bet365
- Stakes: 4/10
Monaco are 7-5 on the road. They are comfortable getting wins away from home and claimed wins away to Strasbourg and Le Mans over the last few weeks. The visitors boast a much stronger net rating than Milano, who have struggled on the defensive end throughout this season.
Monaco simply look like the more complete team here. Yes, Milano are reinforced by some key players returning from injuries, but it’s a big ask to beat an excellent, two-way Monaco outfit.

Milano News, Injury Report, Schedule: Getting Healthy
Milano, currently clinging to the last playoff spot, are under pressure ahead of the visit of Monaco. An 8-5 record on their home floor will give them some confidence ahead of this game, despite losing the cup final to Trento in their last outing.
Injuries to key players have been a problem all season long, but the Italian club are finally getting healthy. Nikola Mirotic is back on the hardwood, and they are close to full strength, despite Josh Nebo and Leandro Bolmaro remaining sidelined.
Monaco News, Injury Report, Schedule: Solid At Both Ends
The signing of Daniel Theis will help Monaco’s frontcourt woes – they are 13th in rebounding rate this season. Like Milano, Monaco suffered a disappointing cup final loss recently, giving up 107 points to a Le Mans team they were heavily favoured over.
While their recent record isn’t anything spectacular, Monaco are still fourth in the EuroLeague standings and have the fourth-best net rating in the competition. Above average at both ends of the floor, there aren’t many significant flaws in this team, and the arrival of Theis is a welcome boost, although it’s unclear if he will be ready to debut on Thursday.
Milano vs Monaco H2H: Advantage Monaco
