Sassuolo v Torino is a Serie A Week 28 match to be played on Monday at 20:45: odds, predictions, TV and streaming.
Last call for Europe? Positive answer. Because if Torino want to somehow try to stay attached to a European train that runs faster and faster, they absolutely cannot miss out on the three points in the away match in Reggio Emilia.
especially after the weekend’s successes against Bologna and Fiorentina. But it is also a matter for Sassuolo, who are only one point behind the Granata and can still nurture ambitions of seventh place. A position that is currently six lengths away from Ivan Juric’s team and seven from Alessio Dionisi’s. However, making the race on Juventus will not be at all easy. First of all, because the Bianconeri are keeping a Scudetto pace. Then there is the unknown related to the penalty: if the Bianconeri should get back the fifteen points taken away in January by the sporting justice, in reality a fight for the seventh place would not even exist. Or rather, those teams such as Sassuolo and Torino that are now chasing the Bianconeri would certainly not be involved. Beyond everything, the objective of both is still to finish on the left side of the table. For the Emiliani, it would inevitably be an excellent placement, in the light of the tribulations experienced during the first half of the season.
Sassuolo are fresh off four wins in a row
The neroverde side have won six of their last eight matches and are on the back of six wins in a row. On balance, they are one of the most in-form teams in the league
Sanabria
Once the infirmary was cleared, Dionisi, as well as his best men, regained the certainties he had lost after a first part of the season in which he had had to cope with the many changes his squad had undergone in the summer market. The three points also arrived on the last day before the break: to chastise Spezia at the Mapei Stadium was a penalty by captain Berardi. Another victory, their fifth in a row, would set an all-time record: they have never won so many one after the other since they have been in Serie A. Another fact, then, certifies Sassuolo’s excellent moment: since the start of 2023 only Napoli, Juventus and Lazio have scored more points. The mini-winning streak that had opened for Torino thanks to the two successes against Bologna and Lecce was interrupted in the home match against Napoli, in which the granata were overwhelmed 4-0 by the tournament leader. A rather erratic performance for Juric’s team, who are nevertheless earning the praise of their demanding coach.
Sassuolo v Torino: latest line-up news
Dionisi is in a position to field the best possible line-up, as he has no injuries or disqualifications to contend with. In the attacking trident, between Berardi and Laurienté, Pinamonti – who is favoured over Defrel – should play, while in midfield with Frattesi will act Matheus Henrique and Maxime Lopez. The only doubt for the young coach concerns the defence: Ferrari will compete for a shirt with Tressoldi.
In addition to Ilic, Zima, Aina, Karamoh and Vieira will be missing. In defence Juric could give confidence to Gravillon, while in attack Radonjic and Vlasic will support Sanabria. On the right, more Rodriguez than Vojvoda.
The prediction
Sassuolo have beaten Torino just four times in the nineteen previous meetings between the two sides in Serie A, and the last clash played in Reggio Emilia was in the hands of the Granata, who won 1-0 at the Mapei Stadium. The neroverdi’s excellent form, however, suggests a positive result for them in the post-match closes the 28th day: it could be an entertaining and even prolific match, considering that Juric’s men are less solid away and have conceded almost twice as many goals. Both are likely to score at least one goal on each side.
The likely line-up for Sassuolo v Torino
- SASSUOLO (4-3-3): Consigli; Toljan, Erlic, Ferrari, Rogério; Frattesi, Maxime Lopez, Matheus Henrique; Berardi, Pinamonti, Laurienté.
- TORINO (3-4-1-2): Milinkovic-Savic; Gravillon, Schuurs, Buongiorno; Singo, Linetty, Ricci, Rodriguez; Vlasic; Radonjic, Sanabria.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 2-2
