Prediction: 2-3
Inter
Sasuolo will try to keep their survival hopes alive when they take on newly-promoted champions Inter in the Serie A round 35. The Neroverdi face a must-win situation against the Nerazzurri, but beating the high-flying visitors is easier said than done. As Sassuolo experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 5-1 loss to Fiorentina, home win should not be considered. Armand Lauriente is back from suspension, while all Gregoire Defrel, Samu Castillejo, and Domenico Berardi are out of contention with injuries.
Ruan Tressoldi serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards. Inter, on the other hand, clinched Scudetto in style, with the team beating Milan in Derby della Madonnina. Given Inter’s fine display in a 2-0 win over Udinese, away triumph should definitely be considered. Wing-back Denzel Dumfries is back from suspension, whilst fellow defender Federico Dimarco misses out with a calf injury.
Highlighted Player (Hakan Calhanoglu):
Hakan Calhanoglu is another one in the long line of Turkish footballers who were born in Germany, so it is hardly surprising he came to prominence thanks to his performances in Bundesliga. The attacking midfielder with great vision and very good goalscoring record started his professional career at Karlsruher, scoring impressive 17 goals in 50 league outings to earn a move to Bundesliga side Hamburg.
The spell at Imtech Arena was merely a stepping stone for bigger things as 11 goals in his debut top flight campaign persuaded Bayer Leverkusen to splash nearly €15 million on his services. That proved a very good investment as Calhanoglu continued the rich vein of form, and it is now a matter of time before he joins one of European powerhouses.
The midfield maestro had a bright start to his career in the Turkey national team, scoring 5 goals in first 16 caps, and chances are he will become a leader for Milli Takim in the foreseeable future.
