Sassuolo
- Sassuolo currently occupy ninth spot in Serie A after picking up 21 points from their opening 15 games.
- Their recent form has been a solid mix of wins and draws with only one loss across their last five matches (Won 2, Drawn 2, Lost 1).
- Sassuolo are unbeaten in two Serie A home games (Won 1, Drawn 1).
Torino
- Torino FC are sitting 13th in the standings with 17 points from 15 matches, four points worse off than Sassuolo.
- Torino FC are winless in two away league games (Drawn 1, Lost 1).
- Il Toro aren’t the highest scorers in the league, and there is an obvious lack of penetration on the road in Serie A, where they have scored six times in seven matches.
- Baroni’s focus on keeping it tight at the back has kept his side in games and is a key factor behind Torino’s positive recent performances.
Head-to-Head
Across the last two Serie A head-to-head meetings, Torino have taken one win and a draw, with Sassuolo failing to win either.
Andrea Pinamonti
Andrea Pinamonti is the striker that most Serie A defences will be worried about, he has scored four Serie A goals in 15 appearances this season and is capable of finding the net from a variety of positions.
Betting Insights
Sassuolo are the slight favorites at 2.47 , although we feel that Torino FC are worthy underdogs at 3.33 in this fixture.
Prediction
- Torino FC have won just one of their last 7 Serie A away games (Drawn 3, Lost 3), so it’s not difficult to side with Sassuolo’s superior form and home advantage in this one.
- However, Torino’s defensive solidity will mean that the Neroverdi are unlikely to let Sassuolo run away with this game.
