Juventus v Sassuolo

Juventus vs Sassuolo Preview

Juventus will be bidding to reduce the existing five-point deficit that currently exists between themselves and the Serie A league leaders, Inter Milan, when they play host to Sassuolo at their Allianz Stadium and having won their last three games on the trot, Juventus will be in confident mood while Sassuolo head into this upcoming clash on the back of a 1-0 home win against Fiorentina.

Recent wins against Frosinone, Roma and Salernitana respectively have nevertheless helped Juventus up into second place in the Italian top flight where they possess a seemingly unassailable 14-point cushion over fifth placed Bologna, so another Champions League spot for next season is firmly in their own hands.

Results overall in this season's Serie A campaign have indeed been impressive as Juventus have been handed just the single defeat so far this term while the Old Lady have collected 14 wins within their 19 league games played to date, so they look a daunting prospect for visitors, Sassuolo, on Tuesday night especially as the hosts still remain unbeaten on home soil at their Allianz Stadium.

Seven wins and two draws have elevated Juventus into possible contention for another Scudetto and the hosts have been tough to beat in their own backyard while also tough to score against as well, keeping five clean sheets in their nine home games.

Sassuolo ended a dismal run of five games without a win in the Italian top flight last time out with a 1-0 home win against Fiorentina but having lost four of these preceding five games with defeats at the hands of Roma, Cagliari, Genoa and AC Milan respectively, this upcoming trip to the Allianz Stadium looks a very tough prospect indeed for Alessio Dionisi's side on Tuesday night.

The bigger picture also casts doubt over whether Sassuolo can even pick up a point against the Old Lady in this encounter as the visitors have managed to capture just two wins from their last 13 matches overall in Serie A which doesn't bode well for this upcoming clash.

Victories against Empoli and Fiorentina have been outweighed by slipping to seven defeats within this 13-match period and includes losses on the road at Torino, Cagliari and AC Milan, while results away from home have also seen Sassuolo struggle to hold their own.

Sassuolo have collected just two wins from their last 14 outings on their travels whilst also being handed nine defeats into the bargain as well, thus making this upcoming trip to the Allianz Stadium a daunting one.

Juventus v Sassuolo Verdict

Juventus have won the last two meetings at home on the trot against Sassuolo and the hosts once again look to be too strong for Sassuolo for this encounter on Monday night too.
