Sassuolo vs Juventus

Sassuolo arrive at this fixture on the back of a productive spell, having picked up 7 points from their last 5 games. With 10 goals in their last 5, their attack has been a real threat, while defensively they have conceded more than they would like (1.6 per game).

On the other side, Juventus have had a contrasting run of results. Recent form suggests Juventus are in red-hot form — 3 wins, 1 draws and 1 losses in their last 5. They have scored at a steady rate averaging 1.4 goals per game, while conceding 0.6. History between these two shows 4 home wins, 1 away wins and 1 draws from 6 meetings. The fixture has averaged 3.0 goals per meeting, with goals rarely in short supply.

The form figures point toward goals. With both teams averaging above a goal a game, neither defence looks built to silence the other's attack — a lively, multi-goal afternoon feels on the cards. With nothing substantive separating these two on paper, a draw would surprise no one — but neither will either side be content with sharing the points. The first goal, again, looks decisive.

The head-to-head record strongly favours Sassuolo, which could play a psychological role in this fixture. The team in better form holds a slight edge, but this is far from a foregone conclusion. Whatever unfolds, this Serie A contest is not to be missed.
