Parma - Sassuolo betting tips and odds

A home win is not something we would recommend betting on at the odds of 5.75 – but you’re probably aware of that already. It would take a miracle for Parma to pull off even a draw, let alone a win as underdogs.

Considering the balance of power in this match, it seems that a draw may be the extent of the home team’s ambition. Sassuolo are at a clear advantage, which is reflected in the 1.63 odds for an away win 1X2 bet.

Parma’s latest away game against Lazio ended in a narrow 1:0 loss for them, though it can hardly be called a disaster. They were up against a far stronger opponent but managed to keep the score even in the first half. Either way, a concession in the late game sent them home with no points.

Sassuolo are coming off from a crushing 1:3 defeat at their previous away game. The match was a largely one-sided affair. Top online bookmakers heavily favoured Juventus, who took the lead in the first half and went on to take home 3 points towards the Serie A title.

The first step Parma need to make to improve is to shore up their defences. With more than 5 goals conceded over the last 3 matches, it seems to be the main aspect of play holding them back.

Sassuolo can certainly boast a level of consistency. They scored at least once in the previous 7 consecutive matches, and will likely be looking to carry on the trend.

Parma are currently in the relegation zone and going into a difficult match this Sunday. With barely any matches rounds yet to be played, climbing up seems highly unlikely at this point.

Despite being favourites, Sassuolo couldn’t manage to secure a victory the last time they played against Parma. This gives the hosts some precedent when it comes to beating the odds, but it’s not a strong case.

With no injuries reported on either side of the pitch, both coaches have their full rosters at their disposal. As such, the odds remain firmly in the visitors’ favour.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.58 if you use the Unibet sportsbook.
