Sassuolo play Inter Milan on Thursday

Sassuolo are set to play Inter Milan at the MAPEI Stadium – Città del Tricolore on Thursday in a friendly game.

Inter Milan, on the other hand, beat Reggina 2-0 in their most recent friendly game. Second-half goals from veteran Bosnian striker Edin Dzeko and Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku sealed the deal for Simone Inzaghi's Inter Milan.

  • Midfielder Davide Frattesi has scored four goals in the league for Sassuolo so far.
  • Argentine striker Lautaro Martinez has 10 goal contributions in the league for Inter Milan.

Sassuolo vs Inter Milan Prediction

Sassuolo are currently 15th in the league and have lost three of their last five league games.

Midfielder Davide Frattesi, who became an Italy international this year, has produced some good performances for Sassuolo this season. Roma, Napoli and Brighton & Hove Albion have all been linked to the 23-year-old, with Roma said to be leading the race. His potential departure could create problems for Sassuolo, who are currently nine points behind 18th-placed Cremonese.

Inter Milan, on the other hand, are fifth in the league, 11 points behind leaders Napoli.

Simone Inzaghi's side did not enjoy a good first half of the league campaign, with Romelu Lukaku's absence due to injury not helping their cause. The 29-year old will hope to put his Chelsea nightmare as well as a disappointing World Cup with Belgium behind him, and help his club side enjoy a better second half.

Inter Milan will hope to keep their players, with right-back Denzel Dumfries being linked with Manchester United and Chelsea, while centre-back Milan Skriniar has been regularly linked with Paris Saint-Germain of late.
