Sassuolo - Milan predictions

The hosts will have little to hope for in this match. The betting odds work against them and so does the overall impression. They are a weaker side here and it would be a proper upset if they manage to beat Milan.

Though we can’t say for certain, all signs are pointing towards AC Milan as the final winner of this showdown. Sassuolo have been known to surprise us from time to time, though, so the match isn’t a done deal.

Sassuolo are coming on the back of a disappointing 2:2 draw in the previous round. Most fans hoped they managed to overcome the home field disadvantage after a solid first-half performance at Salernitana , but the lead melted away as the game progressed.

The previous Serie A encounter could not have gotten much better for AC Milan who were heavily favoured to claim a victory anyway. They fully delivered as well, having taken an early lead and turned it into a 3:0 triumph.

Sassuolo’s fans are rather disappointed with what they’ve seen from their defence in recent home games. The previous three matches saw them concede 7 times, which is not a great look.

We’ve seen some impressive offensive performances from The Rossoneri in the past few weeks. Their latest 3 league outings were marked by more than 5 goals scored, which means this match is likely to confirm markets like BTTS and Over 5 Goals.

Sassuolo are 1 point behind the safety and Sunday brings quite a challenge in their relegation battle. A new defeat would be quite a blow for the hosts who are sitting in 19th but a look at the prices offered by online bookmakers is enough to suspect how this match is likely to pan out.

Down by 14 points behind the leaders, Milan are getting ready to make an additional push in the title chase. Currently in 2nd place, they are holding a Champions League spot but with more than enough games to be played until the end of the season, they are not ready to give up the fight.

We can rely on the teams’ previous meeting as a point of reference. Earlier in the season, The Rossoneri won a Serie A match against Sassuolo in a relatively close game. With that in mind, the 1.79 odds on the visitors winning make a lot of sense.

This match is a bit tough to find value in, so you’ll need to be willing to take a risk. An HT/FT Draw/Away bet at odds of 1.79 is not exactly probable, but it’s clearly the best offer in terms of value.
