Roma Sassuolo betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This clash should not be one of the most balanced of this round of the Italian Championship, as it puts face-to-face two teams that are in very different situations, although both are going through good moment. While Roma is among the top four, Sassuolo appears in the second half of the qualifying table. The home team has managed to create a lot of opportunities, especially through set pieces and kicks from outside the area, while its defense stands out in the aerial game and defensive set pieces. Sassuolo has been very inefficient to conclude and has difficulty maintaining ball possession, while its defense fails in some requirements, especially in the interception of deep balls. Thus, at home, Roma should has no difficulty in building a resilient scoreboard, making it a good option to bet in a game with more goals than usual.

Analysis Roma

After 12 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses, the home team is in the 4th position, havinf won 38 points so far. In the last match, they have lost in an away match against Juventus by (1‑0), after in the previous match they have won (1‑0) at home, against Cagliari. In the last 9 home league matches Roma has a record of 7 wins and 2 losses, so they have won 21 points out of 27 possible.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 5 wins in the last home matches. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 4 of the last 9 matches for this competition have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. They have been able to score first and have done so in 14 of the last 17 matches for the Serie A, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 8 of those 14 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 12 of them.

Roma has the opportunity to add the sixth consecutive win for the Italian Championship, compensating for the points lost away from home, where it has not won for three matches. In its last match, the team played a very balanced game against Juventus, but finished much less than the opponent, and ended up suffering a natural defeat away from home. The minimum score of the last round confirms what the defensive system has been showing throughout the competition, so much so that today is the least leaked of all, being that in nine matches did not concede a single goal. On the other hand, its attack is the one that finishes the most, which can be explained by the good ball possession that the team has been keeping. The 4-3-3 has been the standard formation used by coach Di Francesco, who should not have great absences for this bout.

Confirmed Lineup: Alisson, Alessandro Florenzi, Aleksandar Kolarov, Konstantinos Manolas, Federico Fazio, Radja Nainggolan, Lorenzo Pellegrini, Edin Džeko, Patrik Schick, Diego Perotti.
Coach: D. De Rossi, D. De Rossi.

Analysis Sassuolo

The away team is currently in the 14th position of the league, with 20 points won, after 6 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Sampdoria, by (0‑1). In the last match, they won in a home match against Internazionale, by (1‑0). In the last 9 away league matches Sassuolo has a record of 4 wins and 5 losses, so they have won 12 points out of 27 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 7 of their 20 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Sassuolo is not yet in a good position in the Italian Championship, but is going through its best moment in the competition, having come from three consecutive victories, having conceded no goals in two of them. In the last round, the team had only 28% of ball possession and finished almost half the time of the opponent, but still managed to leave the field with a victory over Internazionale. However, the apathetic performance of the offensive sector has confirmed what the team has been presenting since the start of the competition, as it now has the second worst attack with an average of 0.66 goal per game. One of the weaknesses of the team has been the lack of precision in the exchange of passes, which facilitates the work of the opponent. It is likely that the coach will keep the team in the 4-3-3, with Missiroli standing out in the midfield.

Confirmed Lineup: Andrea Consigli, Pol Lirola, Federico Peluso, Paolo Cannavaro, Francesco Acerbi, Francesco Magnanelli, Simone Missiroli, Alfred Duncan, Diego Falcinelli, Matteo Politano, Antonino Ragusa.
Coach: D. Ballardini.
