Both Monopoli U19 and Brescia U19 will be eager to build momentum when they meet in Coppa Italia Primavera. The hosts will be looking to find their rhythm and put a run of results together. Brescia U19 will travel with intent, knowing that a positive result here could kick-start their campaign.

A more central role appears likely given the sale of Youri Tielemans to Manchester United and the anterior cruciate ligament injury suffered by Amadou Onana at the World Cup.
