Prediction: 1-1
Sassuolo
Following a thrilling 3-3 draw with Lazio, Empoli will look to record their first win of the year when they take on Sassuolo at Stadio Carlo Castellani on Sunday. The Azzurri have been scoring goals for fun of late, and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach. Both Luperto and Bandinelli are out of contention through suspension, while Haas and Parisi miss out with injuries.
The Neroverdi, on the other hand, played out a 1-1 draw with Genoa in their last league fixture, with the team failing to turn their dominance into winning goal. Since Sassuolo look sharp in front of goal as well, we believe that punters from all four corners of the world can find value in betting on both teams to score. Traore is on international duty with Ivory Coast, while both Djuricic and Matheus Henrique are sidelined with injuries. Both Goldaniga and Peluso have been tested positive for coronavirus.
Highlighted Player (Vlad Chiriches):
Vlad Iulian Churches had an unusual path to the biggest stage, spending some time at the Benfica youth academy before returning to Romania to start his professional career at International. The central defender arrived to Steaua Bucuresti via Pandurii Targu Jiu and he needed just a year and a half to secure a big club move.
After snubbing a number of offers from Italian Serie A, Chiriches joined Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2013, becoming Steaua’s record transfer in the process. However, the Romania international did not enjoy the best of starts to his career in England and he was sold to Napoli after two somewhat disappointing seasons at White Hart Lane.
Chiriches has struggled for playing time at Stadio San Paolo as well, and he will probably need to play on regular basis if he is to realise his full potential. Meanwhile, the powerful defender remains an important member of the Romania national team, having earned more than 40 caps for the Tricolorii since making his debut in 2011.
