Sassuolo vs AC Milan Prediction & Match Preview

Sassuolo vs AC Milan Match Preview

• AC Milan travel to Reggio nell’Emilia on the back of five subsequent league wins.
• Sassuolo have managed just one win in the previous twelve Serie A outings.
• The Neroverdi go into this off the back of a 2-2 draw at last-placed Salernitana.

Sassuolo wasted a two-goal lead by conceding a last-gasp equalizer in the 2-2 away draw at rock-bottomed Salernitana. The Neroverdi thus dropped two very important points in the battle for avoiding relegation. They are still second from bottom in the league table, sitting two points below Verona in the safe zone.

Davide Ballardini’s men will now face hard times trying to terminate a three-game winless run. They host red-hot AC Milan on Sunday afternoon in Matchday No 32 at MAPEI Stadium – Citta del Tricolore.

AC Milan kept their winning thread alive last Saturday. They eased past Lecce 3-0 to pick up a seventh win on the spin across competitions. Christian Pulisic, Olivier Giroud, and Rafael Leao were on the scoresheet for the Rossoneri on the occasion. AC Milan firmly hold the 2nd place in the league table. They are 14 points shy of city rivals Inter at the top but also 6 points above Juventus in 3rd place.

Recent Meetings

Interestingly, it’s Sassuolo who have been more successful in the recent H2H history. They have three wins, one draw, and two losses in the last six meetings with the Rossoneri.

AC Milan edged past the Neroverdi 1-0 in the latest clash, though. It was played in December last year at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.

Only one of the previous four head-to-head encounters saw both teams scoring.

Sassuolo vs AC Milan Prediction

Sassuolo are in much bigger need for points but AC Milan possess much more quality in their ranks. Also, the Rossoneri will enter the tie in much higher spirits after winning five subsequent Serie A outings.

Head coach Stefano Pioli may rotate his starting XI on Sunday given that this match comes right in between their UEFA Europa League quarter-final tie against Roma.

Nevertheless, we see the Rossoneri as clear favourites here even with a mixed starting XI. Sassuolo won just one of the last twelve Serie A outings. The fact they failed to beat either Udinese or Salernitana in the last two rounds best described their current form. We will back the away win as the main bet at the 1.70 odds.

The Over 2.5 goals bet is a perfect alternative betting option at the 1.66 odds. AC Milan are scoring for fun these days. Each of the last three league games they played produced three or more goals.

Sassuolo will enter the game off the back of a disappointing 2-2 stalemate at Salernitana. Lastly, six of the previous eight H2H matches between these counterparts produced three or more goals.
