Juventus vs Sassuolo: Team News and Expert Analysis
The Turin giant changed its coach last spring and ultimately won the battle with Roma for fourth place. Tudor, who achieved this, was dismissed in the autumn following a string of poor results. This seemed to help, as the arrival of Spalletti brought quick improvements. However, February turned out to be a failure: a 0-3 loss to Atalanta in the cup, elimination from the Champions League (almost mounting a comeback against Galatasaray after a 2-5 loss in Istanbul – falling short only in extra time with ten men), and setbacks in Serie A. But they managed to defeat their last opponents, Pisa and Udinese.
The team from "Mapei – Città del Tricolore" was relegated to Serie B last season, but only to confidently take first place there. Upon returning to the top tier, they have regularly picked up points, avoiding any real threat of another relegation. Especially after a series of wins between winter and spring. That may explain recent losses to both Lazio and Bologna.
The ambitious hosts score 1.76 goals per match on average, conceding 0.97. The newcomers also perform decently, with nearly equal stats: 1.21 goals scored and 1.34 conceded on average.
