Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Fiorentina and Sassuolo take on each other at Stadio Artemio Franchi in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Sunday’s program. The Viola are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Serie A top scorer Dusan Vlahovic, who scored a brace at the weekend, will be the man to watch in the home team, while Bartlomiej Dragowski should be the only absentee in the home team.
The Neroverdi, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Lazio. Since Sassuolo are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach as well, we believe that over 2.5 goals betting option should be considered. Ayhan is banne for the visitors, while both Djuricic and Obiang remain in the recovery room through different reasons.
