The Serie A is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Sassuolo lock horns with Massimiliano Allegri's Juventus side in an important clash at the Stadio Citta del Tricolore on Sunday.
Sassuolo vs Juventus Preview
Sassuolo are currently in 13th place in the Serie A standings and have not been at their best this season. The home side slumped to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Hellas Verona last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Juventus, on the other hand, are in seventh place in the league table at the moment and have been inconsistent this season. The Bianconeri slumped to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Lazio in their previous league game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
Sassuolo vs Juventus Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- Juventus have a good recent record against Sassuolo and have won 16 of the last 21 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Sassuolo's two victories.

Sassuolo vs Juventus Prediction
Juventus have made some improvements under Massimiliano Allegri but many pundits believe they are still too defensive in their approach. Angel Di Maria has been impressive this season but more is expected of Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic. He will hope to make his mark this weekend.
Sassuolo can pack a punch on their day but have a definitively poor record against the Bianconeri. Juventus are the better team at the moment and hold a slight upper hand going into this game.
Prediction: Sassuolo 1-2 Juventus
